the system has an atypical response when measuring this parameter. The system does not report results for other parameters that use the affected parameter. For example, if ?

appears

with

the

chloride (Cl) result, the system does not

report a

result

for

anion

gap

(AnGap).

 

When

this symbol

appears

with

the

hematocrit

(Hct) result, it

may

indicate that

the result

was

not

corrected

for sodium

(Na*)

because

sodium

failed Required QC analysis.

Analyze the sample again, if possible.

the hematocrit (Hct) result was not corrected for sodium (Na*) because the sodium sensor is out of calibration or because the sodium measurement is beyond the reporting range.

Measurement

Cartridge

 

The self-contained measurement cartridge is non-serviceable.

It consists

of the fluidic components, reagents, and sensors that measure

patient and

QC samples.

In addition, the measurement cartridge contains the mechanical components that interface with the following components:

the reagent system with the peristaltic pumps

* the sensor module with the electronic componentsthe wash/waste cartridge

the thermal control

The external area of the cartridge consists of the platen area which

contains the

pump tubing.

When

the

measurement

cartridge

is installed

and locked

into place, the

roller

cage

of

the

base unit

is positioned

against

the pump tubing to move

the reagents,

the

samples,

and the

wash

fluids

through the

system.

The measurement cartridge is protected by

a door

that

locks in place. The

door provides an electrostatic shield for the

measurement

system. A

mechanical microswitch senses when the

door is

open

or

closed.

patient

and/or

 

 

QC samples, and measure blood gases, electrolytes, glucose, total

 

hemoglobin, and hemoglobin derivatives in arterial,

and capillary

whole

blood samples.

Each

cartridge

is

stable for 28

days after

installation

on the

system

 

when

the

cartridge

is

installed

by

the

date on the label. The

Instal-by date indicates the last date on which the cartridge can be

 

installed and still have 28 days of use before expiration.

Store cartridges refrigerated at 2 to 8°C. Cartridges

can also be stored at

temperature,

not to exceed

25°C,

for up to 14

days.
