Creatinine in the Emergency Department and in the Intensive Care Unit - an Emergency Parameter

An integral part of many screening protocols for emergency admissions is the assessment of kidney function. By determining, among other things, creatinine levels and the eGFR, patients with acute renal failure (ANV) can be identified quickly.

3 Oct 2018

The Benefits of Continuous CO2 and O2 Monitoring in the NICU

Continuous measurement of oxygenation and ventilation status detects sudden changes in the respiratory status in the fragile neonate. Premature and critically ill babies in the NICU are fragile and at risk of sudden changes in oxygenation (pO2) and carbon dioxide (pCO2) levels which can cause severe complications.

Emergency Sepsis: Quickly Detect and Treat

The facts speak for themselves - Sepsis is one of the most common diseases worldwide and the leading cause of death in infectious diseases with a mortality of 30 to 60 percent - often because it is not detected early enough.

3 Oct 2018

The Benefit of Using a D-dimer Assay with a High Clinical Specificity

D-dimer can be used to exclude venous thromboembolism (VTE) in outpatients. Together with a low pretest probability for VTE, a negative D-dimer can safely rule out VTE in 30-50 % of patients with suspected VTE.

20 Sep 2018

The Diagnosis and Monitoring of Sepsis: Lactate and Beyond

Sepsis threatens the lives of over 27 million people each year worldwide. Inappropriate or delayed treatment allows for disease progression to severe sepsis, septic shock and ultimately to 8 million deaths per year.

Blood Conservation at the POC: The Right Technology can Make a Difference

Blood conservation is a major objective for health care providers today. An unnecessary blood transfusion can pose potential risk to the patient and be costly. Decisions to give the patient blood are commonly made with POC devices that measure total hemoglobin directly or indirectly.

10 Sep 2018

The Impact of POC Testing on the Quality and Efficiency of Patient Care in the Emergency Department

The main role of emergency medicine is to diagnose and treat acute medical conditions. Paramount is the rapid identification of critical illness. The key diagnostic tools at our disposal are history, examination, imaging and blood tests.

Preanalytics: The First Step for Accurate Blood Gas Results

Preanalytical errors are said to be the reason for up to 62% of all errors in laboratory medicine. Seven percent of percutaneous needle stick injuries are reported to occur in intensive and cardiac care units and operating rooms.

Transcutaneous Monitoring in the Sleep Center - Is This Really Necessary?

Traditionally, sleep centers performed overnight polysomnography primarily for the management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) which would typically comprise 90% of studies. As home sleep apnea testing use has been increasing and becoming the primary modality for diagnosing OSA, the nature of polysomnography is evolving as it emphasizes the evaluation of patients with complex diseases.

IQCP Demystified - Practical Considerations for Your Blood Gas Analyzer

The January 1st deadline for completion of your hospital's IQCP is coming fast, along with a host of questions from those responsible for creating their plans. If IQCP is optional, what are the alternatives? Is an IQCP plan needed for every blood gas analyzer?

Combining Blood Gas Invasive and Non-Invasive Monitoring for the Best Care of Our Neonates

The survival rate of critically ill newborns has increased during the last few decades, especially for extremely preterm infants. However, overall morbidity in surviving newborns is still high in many centers.

30 Aug 2018

TC Monitoring in NICU - the Value of tcpO2

In the management of critically ill neonates, measurement of arterial oxygenation is frequently required to prevent hypoxia or hyperoxia. Hypoxia may lead to pulmonary vasoconstriction and pulmonary hypertension. In addition, the resulting alterations in systemic blood flow may lead to neurologic and other organ damage.

30 Aug 2018

Cord Blood Gas Analysis in Obstetrical Practice

The process of birth is the most dangerous journey any individual undertakes. The risk of the fetus being “asphyxiated during labor” - that is to encounter insufficient oxygen supply - is a substantial concern even in labor wards in high income countries.

Minimizing Pre-Analytical Errors in Blood Gas Testing

There is an increasing awareness of the impact of errors in medicine on the patient and on the entire healthcare system. It is estimated that as many as 98,000 people die annually in the USA as a result of preventable medical errors. This problem has been recognized by both World Health Organization (WHO) as well as by the European Commission (EC).

14 Aug 2018

Preanalytical Errors Related to Venous Blood Sample Collection and Handling

Venous blood sampling is the most common invasive procedure in healthcare. A recent investigation performed by the Working group for Preanalytical Phase (WG-PRE) of the European Federation for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (EFLM) has shown that blood sampling in Europe is performed by different professions with significantly different levels of education, background, competence and skills.

14 Aug 2018

Minimizing Preanalytical Errors in Capillary Blood Sample Collection and Handling

The specimen of choice that enables the collection of small blood volumes from neonatal or critically ill patients is a capillary blood specimen. This specimen type has gained favour with many physicians for the analysis of blood gases, electrolytes and/or metabolites like glucose, lactate, creatinine or total bilirubin.

Transcutaneous Monitoring in Neonatal Resuscitation: Interest of tcpO2

Care of critically ill newborn patients requires regular measurement of arterial oxygenation levels to avoid or limit the risk of hypoxia or hyperoxia.

Transcutaneous Oxygen Monitoring of Hyperbaric Problem Wound Referrals

Diabetic foot ulcers represent a common indication for hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. Broad acceptance currently exists by those in a position to refer such patients as well as by those who purchase health care. Despite this, its use has recently been called into question.

Advantages of Transcutaneous CO2 over End-Tidal CO2 for Sleep Monitoring

Evaluation of a patient’s respiratory and ventilatory status is often based on intermittent arterial samples that are neither practical during sleep nor offer continuous blood gas monitoring. End-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) monitoring is used to indicate patient ventilation status as it reflects trends of arterial pCO2 (PaCO2).
