GTIN: 05055273227123
INTENDED USE
This product is intended for in vitro diagnostic use, in the quality control of Blood Gas analysis.
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The Blood Gas Controls are supplied at 3 levels, 1, 2 and 3. Target values and ranges are supplied for the
following analytes: Calcium, Chloride, Glucose, Lactate, PCO2, pH, pO2, Potassium, Sodium and Total CO2.
OPENED: For pH/blood gas values, the control should be analysed within 1 minute of opening. For
electrolyte measurements, the control should be analysed within 1 hour after opening.
MATERIALS PROVIDED
Blood Gas Control - Level 3 30 x 1.8 ml
ASIGNED VALUES
Due to the variation caused by test equipment, test reagents and laboratory technique, the quoted ranges are
provided for guidance. It is recommended that these ranges are used until each laboratory has established its
own ranges, based on individual laboratory requirements.
Each batch of Blood Gas Control is submitted to a number of external laboratories and values are assigned
from a consensus of results obtained by these laboratories.
