Radiometer recall

How many of you have Radiometer ABL90 analyzers in your departments as point of care instruments, particularly the NICU? I received the recall today stating that ctBil and FHbF are no longer FDA cleared for any sample type, and that the oximetry and pO2 are no longer valid for capillary sample types. The NICU at our facility uses the ABL90 for monitoring of their neonates nearly as often as our ED uses theirs. This change requires immediate action and therefore I will have to remove the ABL90 from the NICU completely as the only sample types they generally collect are capillary samples. What analyzers do you find are best suited for POC use in a NICU setting?
