Edan Blood Gas and Chemistry Analyser Model i15

Edan i15 Blood Gas and Chemistry Analyser The Edan i15 is a portable point-of-care blood gas and chemistry analyser delivering results within one minute of sample aspiration from a 140 µl whole blood sample. Combining blood gases, electrolytes, metabolites and haematocrit in a single multi-parameter single-use cartridge, the i15 eliminates the need for multiple separate analysers at the bedside. A 7-inch colour touchscreen, auto-sampling mechanism and built-in multimedia tutorials minimise training requirements and handling time. A 5000 mAh lithium-ion battery supports 50 continuous tests per charge, enabling use in emergency departments, intensive care units, wards, outpatient clinics and field settings without a mains connection. Up to 10,000 patient records are stored onboard, with 4 USB ports, LAN and Wi-Fi for flexible data management and optional EMR integration. A triple quality control guarantee system incorporates calibration, liquid controls and an external electronic simulator for verified result accuracy. Key Features Results in 1 minute - from sample aspiration to reported result in under 60 seconds 140 µl sample volume - small whole blood sample from arterial line, capillary or syringe Multi-parameter single-use cartridge - blood gases, electrolytes, metabolites and haematocrit in one cartridge; no cross-contamination risk; room temperature storage with long shelf life Available cartridge configurations - BG3, BG4, BG8, BG9, BG10 and BC4 to match clinical need Zero maintenance - single-use cartridge system eliminates sensor cleaning, calibration fluid handling and maintenance procedures 7-inch colour LCD touchscreen - 800 x 480 resolution; intuitive interface with built-in multimedia tutorial videos Barcode and QR code scanner - acquire patient information without manual data entry 50 tests per charge - 5000 mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery; portable use across clinical areas without mains power Triple QC guarantee - internal liquid calibration, 3 or 5 level liquid quality controls, and external electronic simulator for comprehensive result verification Up to 10,000 patient record storage - onboard memory with patient data management 4 x USB 2.0, RS232, LAN and Wi-Fi - flexible data export, EMR integration and optional data management software Built-in printer - onboard result printing without external hardware 3.65 kg portable design - lightweight and compact for bedside, ward and point-of-care use Measured Parameters Parameter Reportable Range Resolution Method pH 6.5 to 8.0 0.001 Potentiometric sensor pO2 10 to 700 mmHg 0.1 Amperometric sensor pCO2 10 to 150 mmHg 0.1 Potentiometric sensor Na 100 to 180 mmol/L 0.1 Potentiometric sensor K 2.0 to 9.0 mmol/L 0.01 Potentiometric sensor Ca 0.25 to 2.5 mmol/L 0.01 Potentiometric sensor Cl 65 to 140 mmol/L 0.1 Potentiometric sensor Glucose 20 to 700 mg/dL / 1.1 to 38.9 mmol/L 1 / 0.1 Amperometric sensor Lactate 2.7 to 180.2 mg/dL / 0.3 to 20 mmol/L 0.1 / 0.01 Amperometric sensor Haematocrit 10 to 75% / 0.10 to 0.75 fraction 1% / 0.01 Conductance sensor Calculated Parameters cH+, HCO3-act, HCO3-std, BE(ecf), BE(B), BB(B), ctCO2, sO2(est), Ca++(7.4), AnGap, tHb(est), pO2(A-a), pO2(a/A), RI, pO2/FIO2, and temperature-corrected values: cH+(T), pH(T), pCO2(T), pO2(T), pO2(A-a)(T), pO2(a/A)(T), RI(T), pO2(T)/FIO2, mOsm Technical Specifications Specification Detail Manufacturer Edan Instruments, Inc.
