Hi All,
We are in the beginning stages of putting an i-Stat in our nursery for blood gases. What brand of capillary tube does everyone use for i-Stat testing?

Jut an FYI that the EG6, EG7 an CG8 cartridges are not FDA cleared for K and iCa in capillary whole blood specimens.
They will be using the G3 cartridge.
We use RNA CT 220 Blood Collection Tubes. You can get end caps also if they have to send a sample to the lab.
