ANALyzER DISPLAy AND CDS CHANGES
Due to the new ACT result calibration option, there are several changes to the analyzer display as well as to
the Central Data Station (CDS). Major changes are noted below:
• The i-STAT PCA and BAM are NOT capable of offering the new ACT result calibration option. All
PCA and BAM ACT results continue to use the original ACT calibration (PREWRM). To clearly
identify this calibration, ACT results reported on the i-STAT PCA will show PREWRM on the result
screen.
• The ACT test results that will be displayed on the i-STAT 1 analyzer now show the calibration
setting that was used to perform the ACT calculations.
