About
H12 Hemoglobin Test Strips are applied on URIT Hemogiobin Meter, for the quantitative measurement of total hemoglobin in capillary and venous whole blood, The test is intended for use by health care professionals only, not to be used for patient self-testing.
Ingredients:
Potassium ferricyanide 2.5% w/w, surfactant 4% w/w
Specification
Operation Principle: The test strip utilizes Dry Chemistry Colorimeter Method (Azido methaemoglobin Method). When a drop of whole blood is applied to the test spot on the strip, blood immediately disperses within the membrane, contacting the reagent. The meter’s optical detectors avtomatically measure the change in membrane reflectance. The intensity of reflectance is inversely proportional to the hemoglobin concentration.
Blood Sample Collection:
Fresh or EDTA-anticoagulated capillary or venous whole blood may be used. If an EDTA – treated sample is refrigeratted to come to the room temperature before testing. EDTA treated blood samples should be mixed using end to and inversions at least 8 times prior to use, and should be tested within 24nours Do not use the haemolytic sample anticogulants other than EDTA are not recommended for use.
Direction for Use
Operating Instructions:
1. URIT Hemoglobin Meter, H12 Hemoglobin Test Strip, Lancing Device, and disposable blood taking needle.
2. Test steps:
1) Turn the meter on and input the Code Card. Check the Code Card displaying on the meter to ensure it to match the Code Card printed on the lest strip container. Otherwise, the result is incorrect.
2) Massage the patient’s finger from the knuckle up to the tip to stimulate blood flow. Clean the sample area with alcohol and wipe it dry with a sterile gauze pad.
3) Insert the lest strip into the strip holder with the notched end in first and the hole facing up.
4) Puncture the skin on the lower side of fingertip with blood collection needle, and remove 13-15 TIL of whole biood with capillary or other micro blood collection apparatus.
While waiting for the instrument to display the blood drop symbol, quickly add the drops to the test hole on the reagent sheet. Please make sure that the blood drop volume can completely cover the test hole but not overflow the test hole.
5) The meter starts the test automatically after the blood sample disperses Once the lest is in process do nol disturb or move the meter or test strip, or press any key. The test result will display within 12 seconds.
Qualtiy Control Procedure:
Use only H12 Hemoglobin Test Strip with QC substance to perform QC. The range of QC substance is the numerical range indicated on the label of the QCsubstance or test strips.
When to do a QCtest:
1. Whenever you suspect that the meter or test strips are not working properly.
2. If your hemoglobin test results are not consistent with how you feel.
Other Info
Limitations of test Method:
H12 Hemoglobin Test Strip is only suitable for testing fresh or whole capillary blood or whole venous blood containing EDTA anticoagulants.
Do not use serum, plasma or arterial blood
