GHM HB US Plus Hemoglobin Testing System – Quantitative, 3-Second, Whole Blood
GHM HB US Plus Hemoglobin Testing System – Quantitative, 3-Second, Whole Blood
SKU: GHM HB US
Brand: Global Healthcare Medical
Product Overview
Global Healthcare Medical GHM HB US Plus Hemoglobin Testing System is a portable, hand-held hemoglobin testing system designed for the quantitative determination of total hemoglobin concentration in non-anticoagulated capillary (fingerstick) whole blood or venous whole blood of adults. The measurement of hemoglobin is used as an aid in the diagnosis of anemia and in the monitoring of conditions affecting hemoglobin levels. Hemoglobin testing is the most requested hematology test, particularly among pregnant and postnatal women and individuals living with chronic conditions requiring regular monitoring.
The GHM HB US is a battery-powered, hand-held device that measures the concentration of total hemoglobin in blood in just 3 seconds using a 15 μL whole blood sample. The system utilizes a dual-wavelength photo-absorption method and measures the degree of light absorption with a spectrophotometer. The analyzer features a 3.25-inch color LCD display, a built-in memory capacity of 1,000 results, and an external thermal printer option.
The system is designed for point-of-care use in primary care settings, hospitals, and medical laboratory facilities. The analyzer operates with a small sample volume and provides fast, reliable results with simple operation.
This product is for in vitro diagnostic use only. For professional use only.
Key Features & Benefits
Quantitative Hemoglobin Measurement – Aid in Anemia Assessment and Monitoring
The GHM HB US delivers quantitative hemoglobin results, providing measurable concentration values that can be used as an aid in the diagnosis of anemia and in the monitoring of hemoglobin levels. Point-of-care hemoglobin measurement provides results within seconds, enabling timely clinical decision-making. Studies have demonstrated that point-of-care hemoglobin measurement shows excellent agreement with automated hematology analyzer results for guiding transfusion and phlebotomy decisions.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Quantitative result | Provides measurable hemoglobin concentration values |
| Specimen types | Capillary (fingerstick) whole blood, Venous whole blood |
| Intended use | Aid in diagnosis of anemia and monitoring of hemoglobin levels |
| Test time | 3 seconds |
| Measurement range | 5.0 – 25.6 g/dL |
| Clinical utility | Supports anemia screening, transfusion guidance, and hemoglobin monitoring |
Dual-Wavelength Photo-Absorption Method – Reliable Measurement Principle
The GHM HB US utilizes a dual-wavelength LED light source by which the hemoglobin absorbance is detected and converted into an electrical signal. The signal is directly proportional to the amount of hemoglobin present in the sample. The concentration of hemoglobin is calculated based on a pre-programmed calibration. The optical distance between the microcuvette walls is fixed and permits photometric determination of hemoglobin in undiluted blood samples.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Dual-wavelength photo-absorption | Reliable quantitative measurement principle |
| Dual wavelength LED | 530 nm and 850 nm wavelengths for accurate detection |
| Reagent-free microcuvettes | Eliminates reagent preparation steps |
| Fixed optical path | Ensures consistent and accurate measurements |
Advanced System Design – Portable and User-Friendly
The GHM HB US is a compact, battery-powered hand-held device designed for convenient point-of-care use. The system includes the analyzer, single-use microcuvettes, an ID chip for calibration data, an optical system check microcuvette, and quality control materials.
Wide Storage Temperature – No Cold Chain Required
The test kit is designed for convenient storage and transport, with a microcuvette storage temperature range of 15 ~ 35°C, eliminating the need for cold chain logistics.
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Microcuvette storage temperature | 15 ~ 35°C / 59 ~ 95°F |
| Microcuvette stability | 24 months |
| Tests per box | 200 |
Simple Operation – Professional Point-of-Care Testing
The test procedure involves three simple steps: collect the blood sample, fill the microcuvette, and insert it into the analyzer.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Collect the capillary or venous whole blood sample |
| 2 | Fill the microcuvette (15 μL) via capillary action or direct pipetting |
| 3 | Insert the microcuvette into the analyzer for measurement |
