i-STAT in the Hospital

Accelerating patient care decision-making

The i-STAT System is at the forefront of expanding technology to drive patient-side, point-of-care testing with the industry’s most comprehensive menu of tests in a single platform. Throughout the service lines of the hospital, the i-STAT System helps:

• support a patient-centric approach to health care: The i-STAT System accelerates patient care decision-making by reducing the time to get needed information to the clinicians and fosters a team approach to patient care by enabling clinicians to share critical test results on the spot
• optimize system efficiency: The i-STAT System provides data to help improve clinical, operational, and financial outcomes by eliminating process steps and handoffs to potentially reduce errors and promote patient safety
• support quality and compliance requirements: Every i-STAT System test cartridge has quality assurance built in and complements the vital services laboratories provide to patients and their caregivers
• leverage the power of a single, integrated bedside testing solution: The i-STAT System offers a comprehensive menu of tests; a single testing system, rather than multiple systems and protocols; standardized lab-quality bedside testing; and simplified implementation, training, and regulatory requirements
