POC Blood Tests Cleared by FDA

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 06 Sep 2000
Point-of-care tests for hemoglobin and hematocrit on the Careside Analyzer have been cleared by the U.S. More...
Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These two tests are the most commonly performed hematology tests. This brings the total number of cleared or exempt tests on the Analyzer to 40.

About the size of a fax machine, the Careside Analyzer provides an efficient means of measuring blood chemistry, electrochemistry, and coagulation function at the patient's point of care. The results of a blood test are ready within 15 minutes of drawing a blood sample. The Careside Analyzer and tests are from Careside, Inc. (Culver City, CA, USA).

This approval is further documentation that the Careside Analyzer is an efficient, cost-effective platform for decentralized testing, with special benefits for the physician office lab setting, said W. Vickery Stoughton, chairman and CEO of Careside.
