Hb 801 System


What Does the HemoCue® Hb 801 System Test For?

The HemoCue® Hb 801 System is specifically designed to measure hemoglobin levels in blood. Hemoglobin, a crucial protein in red blood cells, carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. Accurate hemoglobin testing is essential for diagnosing and monitoring conditions such as anemia, a common blood disorder where the body lacks sufficient healthy red blood cells. The Hb 801 System provides precise, lab-quality hemoglobin measurements at the point of care, enabling healthcare professionals to make informed decisions quickly and effectively.

How to Clean the Hb 801 System Analyzer

Proper cleaning of the HemoCue® Hb 801 Analyzer is essential to maintain accurate results and ensure the longevity of the device. Follow these steps to clean the analyzer effectively:

  1. Turn Off the Analyzer: Before cleaning, ensure the analyzer is powered off and disconnected from any power source or USB connection.
  2. Exterior Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution or a 70% isopropyl alcohol wipe to clean the exterior surfaces. Gently wipe down the device, avoiding excess moisture to prevent liquid from entering any openings.
  3. Cleaning the Cuvette Holder: Remove the cuvette holder from the analyzer according to the manufacturer's instructions. Clean it with a soft brush or a swab dipped in mild detergent or 70% isopropyl alcohol. Allow it to dry completely before reinserting it into the analyzer.
  4. Disinfecting the Cuvette Holder: If necessary, disinfect the cuvette holder with a suitable disinfectant, ensuring it is compatible with the materials used in the analyzer. Rinse with distilled water and allow it to air dry completely.
  5. Reassemble and Power On: Once all components are dry, reassemble the analyzer, reconnect it to the power source, and power it on. The device is now ready for use.
