RAPIDPoint500e Scan Badge

Both single-field and multi-field data entry are available via 2D bar code. Patient and operator IDs can be read by scanning a 2D bar code.

  • Flexible and customizable settings for 1D and 2D bar-code application allow for a simplified workflow while potentially reducing transcription errors.

RAPIDPoint 500e AQC open Medium

Maintenance-free operation reduces your daily device burden, allowing you to focus your attention on what matters most: the patient. 

  • Automatic, hands-free sample aspiration and advanced clot management and clearance facilitate ease of use.
  • The measurement cartridge is entirely maintenance-free over a 28-day onboard use life.
  • The measurement cartridge incorporates industry-proven planar sensors and the sample probe, which is self-cleaning and safely contained to minimize operator exposure to biohazards.
  • Operator variability is eliminated with hands-free automatic sample aspiration.
  • Integrated 1D/2D bar-code scanner minimizes the risk of transcription errors.
  • Optional independent Automatic Quality Control cartridge verifies system performance, providing consistent accuracy without operator intervention.
RAPIDPoint500e Cartridges

Three levels of independent AQC, multiple calibration routines, and advanced software algorithms enable the analyzer to be ready to generate reliable, clinically actionable test results.
