I-Stat 1 Handheld - Abbott i-STAT 1 System Manual

OPERATOR COMPETENCY NOTIFICATION ON THE
OVERVIEW
As part of the on-going READi initiative (Responds, Enhances, And Delivers Innovation), Abbott Point of
Care (APOC) has released the Operator Competency Notification feature for the i-STAT 1 handheld. This
feature allows a system administrator (e.g., Point of Care Coordinator or Laboratory Administrator) to
define a time period in which the operator will be notified by a message on the i-STAT 1 handheld display
of their competency expiration date. By default, the feature is turned off.
Functionality
The system administrator will define a time period of notification in the Customization Workspace of the
data management system. When the operator scans or enters their operator ID in the i-STAT 1 handheld,
if their competency certification will expire within the timeframe set by the system administrator, a message
will appear on the handheld display alerting them of the expiration date.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
In order to create Operator Competency Notifications, users must have the i-STAT 1 handheld and either
the Central Data Station Version 5 or i-STAT / DE data management applications. This feature is not
customizable through the i-STAT 1 handheld keypad.
