The degree of hemolysis is an essential indicator of the quality and integrity of blood products. With the HemoCue® Plasma/Low Hb System, you can easily and accurately estimate hemolysis directly at the point of care. Replace subjective visual judgment and have confidence in your answers.
In the laboratory, hemolysis is an important preanalytical factor that affects the accuracy and clinical utility of many test results. By assessing the degree of hemolysis before analysis, the sample can be accepted or rejected. The HemoCue® Plasma/Low Hb System makes it possible to easily and accurately estimate hemolysis without having to send the sample to a lab.
