Product catalog summary
Introduction to the epoc® Blood Analysis System
The epoc® Blood Analysis System is designed to enhance point-of-care (POC) testing by providing rapid and accurate blood gas analysis at the bedside. It offers a full menu of tests on a single card, including key parameters such as K+, Glu, Lac, Na+, Ca++, Hct, pH, pCO2, and pO2. The system supports room temperature storage and features barcoded lot and expiration dates for efficient inventory management.
Components and Features
  • Test Card: Offers a comprehensive test menu on a single card, eliminating the need for multiple test cards.
  • Reader: Automatically scans the test card barcode and requires only 92 µL of fresh whole blood. It operates on AC power or a rechargeable battery.
  • Mobile Computer: Facilitates barcode scanning for operator and patient ID, critical result reporting, and includes lockouts for operator, patient, and quality control.
  • epoc® Data Manager (EDM) Software: A web-based system for managing patient results and reports, with an HL7 interface for integration with LIS/HIS systems.
Operational Efficiency and Cost Control
The epoc® system streamlines the testing process by reducing manual data entry errors, sample handling errors, and patient/sample mix-ups. It frees up staff time, allowing for faster patient treatment and improved outcomes. The wireless workflow ensures secure real-time transmission of results, reducing transcription errors and enhancing portability.
Workflow Comparison
The document compares traditional lab-based processes with the epoc® bedside process, highlighting the reduction in steps and time required for testing. The epoc® system enables results in less than one minute, significantly improving turnaround times and facilitating quicker treatment decisions.
Conclusion
The epoc® Blood Analysis System represents a leap in POC testing by improving operational efficiency, reducing costs, and enhancing patient care. Its smart, connected, and empowering design supports better clinical workflows and patient outcomes.
