Blood Gas Analyzer

Blood Gas Analyzer: Blood gas analyzers are used to measure combinations of pH, blood gas (i.e. pCO2 and pO2), electrolytes, and metabolite parameters from whole blood samples. Blood conservation is an important initiative in every clinical diagnostic lab or critical care facility. Therefore, a highly accurate blood gas analyzer can streamline work processes and reduce errors with minimum maintenance.
Most blood gas analyzers offer automatic sample mixing and easy sample aspiration with intuitive user interface built-in and automatic QC for accuracy and regulatory compliance. Also available in a lightweight, small footprint design, most models offer simple replacement of solutions for analysis such as sensor cassettes and solution packs. A particularly unique feature of certain blood gas analyzers is liquid calibration, thereby eliminating previously required gas tanks, regulators, tubing lines, and humidifiers.
An arterial blood gas analysis (ABG) measures the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in your blood to see how well your lungs are working. It also measures the acid-base balance in the blood. Your kidneys and lungs work to keep your acid-base levels in balance.
