Looking at what we can do to work smarter in 2026, our program continues to grow with requests and 3 of us keep up with 4 hospitals, 2 med centers and trying to work with about 150 ambulatory sites!!! Hospitals and med centers are under CAP--non waived testing. Also trying to reduce costs!!
What are you doing for:
1--Work up of a replacement analyzer from Abbott iSTAT
2-New lot of iSTAT QC (tri level and ACT), do you run it with a designated lot of cartridge and the old lot of QC? and what should the acceptability be--since all we can do is try to return it
3-Addressing COM.30560 that is new in Dec 2025 to the "all commons" checklist
      Humidity--operated in manuf. specified ranges. iSTAT says 10-90%, iSTAT tech services states that iSTAT internal/external simulators will not work >90% but         does not have any written solution for <10%
