Cobas h 232 (Cardiac Marker Reader)
The cobas h 232 POC system is a portable medical equipment that enables rapid and reliable diagnosis of cardiac biomarkers, such as troponin T, NT-proBNP, D-dimer, CK-MB, and myoglobin. It is designed to be used in a variety of settings, including ambulances, general practitioner offices, and emergency rooms.
The cobas h 232 POC system is easy to use and provides results in minutes. It is also highly accurate and precise, with results that are comparable to those obtained from central laboratory analyzers.
The cobas h 232 POC system can be used to diagnose a variety of cardiac conditions, including:
- Acute myocardial infarction (AMI)
- Heart failure
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Pulmonary embolism (PE)
The cobas h 232 POC system can also be used to monitor patients with known cardiac conditions, such as heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Benefits of the cobas h 232 POC system:
- Rapid and reliable results
- High accuracy and precision
- Easy to use
- Portable
- Versatile
How the cobas h 232 POC system can improve patient care:
- By enabling healthcare providers to make rapid and accurate diagnoses of cardiac conditions
- By enabling healthcare providers to initiate appropriate treatment early
- By improving patient outcomes
Overall, the cobas h 232 POC system is a valuable medical equipment for healthcare providers who need to make rapid and accurate diagnoses of cardiac conditions. It is also a valuable tool for monitoring patients with known cardiac conditions.
