OPTI Medical Systems - Model OPTI CCA - Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer
From Blood Gas Analyzers
The OPTI Medical Systems OPTI CCA Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer utilizes optical technology that has been used in OPTI analyzers for 13 years. This technology does not use electrodes or contact points, eliminating the need for costly electrode maintenance. The OPTI Medical Systems OPTI® CCA Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer shares all the features of the OPTI Medical Systems OPTI CCA TS Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer but does not have a touch screen.
Significant Cost Savings
The OPTI Medical Systems OPTI® CCA Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer provides lab quality results with zero standby cost. The single-use consumable, stored at room temperature, is only used during a measurement and safely locks waste inside.
Wide operating temperature
The OPTI Medical Systems OPTI® CCA Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer has a measuring chamber heated to 37º Celsius. This allows for a wide operating temperature range to meet the needs of colder environments such as the operating room.
Comprehensive test menu
To help meet exact testing needs, the OPTI Medical Systems OPTI® CCA Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzerhas a variety of cassette configurations available. Each cassette comes individually wrapped, in cartons of 25, reducing the potential for consumable waste.
Principles of Operation
The OPTI Medical Systems OPTI® CCA Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer is a microprocessor-based instrument that measures optical fluorescence from discreet sensors called optical electrodes (optodes). A disposable, single-use cassette contains all of the elements needed for calibration, sample measurement and waste containment. Specific calibration information from the cassette is read into the analyzer by swiping the cassette package through the bar-code reader. The cassette is then placed into the measurement chamber.
The analyzer warms the cassette to 37.0° +/-0.1°C (98.6° +/-0.1°F), and performs a calibration verification on the sensors for PCO2 and PO2 by passing a precision calibration gas mixture across the optode sensors. The pH and electrolyte channels are calibrated with precision buffer solution contained in the cassette. When calibration is verified, the analyzer aspirates the blood sample into the cassette and across the optode sensors. After equilibrating with the blood sample, fluorescence emission is then measured.
