RAPIDLab® 1200 Blood Gas Analyzers from Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics help expedite clinical decision making by generating immediate, trusted results for critical analytes. The same RAPIDLab® 1200 Series Blood Gas Analyzer has been proven to address the need for accurate process analytics in all stages of development of bioprocessing applications.

• Easy-to-use, cartridge-based technology
• Results for all parameters available in approximately 60 seconds
• Comprehensive test menu
• Intuitive color touchscreen interface
• Full automation QC and calibration ensures compliance
• Accommodates different sample temperatures

Specifically designed to improve turnaround and uptime in laboratory and point-of-care settings and near-line bioreactor processes, the RAPIDLab 1200 Blood Gas Systems streamline workflow with easy-to-use, cartridge-based technology that optimizes operational performance in medium- to high-volume testing sites.

RAPIDLab® 1200 systems analyze even the smallest of patient and process samples. The automatic identification of a small sample instantly shifts the analyzer into microsample mode. Minimal sample-volume requirements, advanced automatic quality control, fast calibration times, and hands-free, bio-safe sampling help improve workflow wherever critical care and bioprocessing testing is performed. Testing speed and efficiency combine with high reliability and low maintenance requirements to facilitate delivery of accurate, on-demand results that can be made available as soon as clinicians or bioprocessing operators need them. Treatment decisions and suggested changes in bioprocessing operating parameters can be made without delay.

Quickly analyze patient or process samples via the intuitive color touchscreen interface. Panels can be customized to display the most frequently requested tests. Interface provides at-a-glance view of system readiness. Icons provide instant links to screens for analysis, system setup and functions, and help menu. Onboard learning videos simplify training and daily operations. More system uptime with cost-effective cartridge technology. Cartridges eliminate the need for high-maintenance reagent bottles and gas tanks. Reagent cartridge remains onboard for 30 days with no need for operator intervention. Automatic Quality Control (AQC) cartridges last 28 days, simplifying compliance. Cartridge-based system supports walkaway operation and minimizes time spent on maintenance. Preserve data integrity and improve workflow.

Optional bar-code scanner helps ensure accurate and secure capture of patient, production run, and operator ID. ”Always-on” bar-code scanner setting simplifies and speeds hands-free testing. System supports a variety of bar-code formats, including 1-D and 2-D bar codes, to meet hospital needs today and in the future. Expanded support for nonstandard multibyte ASCII characters. Maximize reporting efficiency and ensure QC performance with compliance oversight. Seamless integration with LIS, HIS, and data- management systems facilitates real-time delivery of on-demand results, remote QC monitoring, and networked system compliance management. Onboard USB ports simplify data uploads/downloads and extend data export options. QC setup issue notifications ensure proper QC configuration. Added QC option with new reagent cartridge installation. Simultaneous manual and automatic QC scheduling adds flexibility.
