Test Parameters Measured Parameters Calculated Parameters Test Name – Tracie Pickering RN, CCRN Measurement Range “In treating the critically ill, we now have the next generation POC technology on a cost-effective Smartcard. A wireless system that transmits the results to a PDA in seconds at the patient’s side and then into the EMR for our entire care team. We can make timely treatment decisions without ever having to leave the patient’s side. Some call this a high tech/high touch solution. I call it compassionate care.” mm Hg kPa mmol/L mEq/L mmol/L mEq/L mmol/L mg/dL mEq/L mmol/L mg/dL g/L mmol/L mg/dL g/L % PCV L/L mg/dL µmol/L mmol/L mEq/L Carbon Dioxide, Partial Pressure Oxygen, Partial Pressure pO2 Sodium Ionized Calcium Normal Range Test Name Actual Bicarbonate Base Excess of Extra Cellular Fluid Total Carbon Dioxide Units of Measure g/dL mmol/L g/L mEq/L mmol/L mEq/L mmol/L mEq/L Base Excess of Blood Oxygen Saturation Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate if African American **Institutions should establish and set their own normal range values. mmol/L AGap -14 - +95 Anion Gap mEq/L mmol/L AGapK -10 - +99 Anion Gap, K+ mEq/L The epoc® Process: Wireless, Near Instantaneous Informatics pH pCO2 pO2 Hct Integrates into any clinical workflow epoc® BGEM Test Card epoc® Reader epoc® Host2 Mobile Computer • Barcoded lot & Exp. date • Patient test and QC results • Auto scans Test Card barcode • Captures and transmits raw test data Plus calculated values • Interpret and view patient test data • Bi-directional communication between Host and Reader epoc Data Manager Hospital Network Computers Fewer steps to a deeper level of care.
