Roche Diagnostics has announced the global launch of enhanced software (Version 7.0) for its flagship cobas b 221 blood gas analyser system. The cobas b 221 is a desktop device designed for critical care and provides blood gas analysis, measurement of the most important electrolytes, and glucose, lactate, urea, bilirubin and haemoglobin derivatives.
The new software is tailored to the demands of critical care clinicians, nurses and point-of-care testing (POCT) coordinators. It provides new features for the assessment of single-parameter trends and the option to define panels of specific parameters. The software provides the ability to display graphically any developments in parameters that are measurable on the cobas b 221.
