i-STAT 1
A PORTABLE BLOOD ANALYSIS SYSTEM THAT DELIVERS LAB-QUALITY DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS IN MINUTES
The lightweight, easy-to-use i-STAT 1 blood analyzer operates with the advanced technology of i-STAT test cartridges. Together, they create the i-STAT System — a point-of-care-testing platform that provides healthcare professionals with diagnostic information when and where it’s needed. Quickly perform patient-side tests and transmit results to the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) or Lab Information System (LIS) to help accelerate clinical decision-making.1
Benefits
Broad test menu
Single-use i-STAT test cartridges offer a broad menu of tests on a single, portable platform. Each test cartridge has a unique combination of biosensors to suit a wide range of clinical needs.
Easy to use
Testing can be performed at the patient’s side with only 2-to-3 drops of whole blood. Clear and comprehensive instructions help the operator through the testing process.
Fast, lab-quality results
Provides accurate results in approximately 2 minutes for most tests.
Portable
Testing and obtaining time-sensitive results at the patient’s side streamlines the testing process and eliminates process steps, handoffs and delays to help reduce errors, enable rapid decision-making, and optimize patient-care.1,2
Connected
The i-STAT 1 can connect to multiple data management systems including Abbott Info HQ® or AEGISPOCTM - to integrate seamlessly with your Laboratory Information System, Electronic Medical Records or both to help you manage test results, operators and devices. Optional Advanced Quality Features and STATNotes help integrate test results into your facility’s software to streamline information management.
