Piccolo Xpress Chemistry Analyser
It is a near patient testing instrument for critical care
and emergency for blood chemistries, electrolytes and blood gas
Anand Brothers, New Delhi, a leading company in the field of diagnostic kits
and equipment has launched Piccolo Xpress Chemistry Analyser (Point of Care)
from ABAXIS Inc., USA. It is a near patient testing instrument for critical
care and emergency for blood chemistries, electrolytes and blood gas (tCO2).
The advance technology and full automation of the system
ensure: exceptionally fast, easy and accurate results, comparable to the best
of any other automation in chemistry testing. The Piccolo Xpress is a compact,
portable clinical chemistry system designed for on-site patient testing. Roughly
the size of a shoebox, healthcare providers use the easy-to-follow colour touch
screen commands to perform routine multi-chemistry panels. 0.1cc of whole blood,
serum or plasma is added directly to the patented 8-cm diameter single use plastic
disc containing the liquid diluent and dry reagents. The disc is placed in the
analyser drawer where centrifugal and capillary forces are used to mix the reagents
and sample in the disc. The Piccolo Xpress monitors the reagent reactions simultaneously
using nine wavelengths, calculates the results from the absorbance data and
reports the results. The Piccolo xpress self-calibrates with each run and the
on-board continuous intelligent Quality Control (iQCT) monitors the analyser,
reagent reactions and sample to ensure chemistry and instrument integrity. This
assures you the highest quality and accuracy in results. Results are ready in
approximately 12 minutes with a 'hard copy' report suitable for the patient
file or transferred to a computer, printer or an LIS/EMR. This enables you to
rapidly obtain critical diagnostic information at point of care. The easy-to-use,
maintenance-free system requires no special training to operate.
The multiple panels available in different combinations as single usage reagent
discs (cartridge) provides good flexibility of use to different customers. The
panels available are Lipid Panel (CLIA WAIVED), Lipid Panel plus (CLIA WAIVED),
Liver Panel Plus (CLIA WAIVED), Renal Function Panel, Hepatic Function Panel,
Electrolyte Panel, MetLyte 8 Panel, General Chemistry 13 (CLIA WAIVED), General
Chemistry 6 (CLIA WAIVED), Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Basic Metabolic Panel
Plus and Basic Metabolic Panel.
The products are FDA approved and the company is ISO certified for GMP. ABAXIS
also received the 2007 Medical Design excellence award this year.
The instruments can be very useful tool in critical care for emergency/ ICU
of all private/Government hospitals, trauma centres, neo-natal clinics and mobile
hospitals/ambulances.
The accurate testing and fast results can be very helpful for first line of
treatment of the patients to the target customers.
