    i-STAT CHEM8+ Cartridge

    Comprehensive basic metabolic panel with hematocrit for rapid metabolic and renal assessment


    Product overview

    The i-STAT CHEM8+ is one of the most comprehensive chemistry cartridges in the i-STAT lineup. It delivers a full panel of electrolytes, metabolic markers, renal function tests, and hematology values in approximately two minutes at the bedside. The panel closely mirrors a traditional basic metabolic panel (BMP) with the addition of ionized calcium, hematocrit, and hemoglobin - giving clinicians a broad metabolic snapshot in a single test.


    Expand your point-of-care testing capacity with refurbished i-STAT analyzers

    If your facility relies on the Abbott i-STAT system for point-of-care testing, Block Scientific can help you increase your testing capacity at a fraction of the cost of buying new. The Abbott i-STAT is one of Block Scientific's Centers of Excellence analyzers, which means we carry deep inventory, provide factory-level refurbishment, and back every unit with comprehensive service and support.


    Adding refurbished i-STAT 1 or i-STAT Alinity instruments to your fleet lets you deploy more analyzers across departments, satellite locations, or mobile units without the capital outlay of purchasing new. Every refurbished i-STAT from Block Scientific is thoroughly tested, calibrated, and verified to meet original manufacturer specifications before it ships.


    And when you bundle your cartridge and consumable orders with refurbished instrumentation, you get the best possible pricing on both. Complete the form on this page and your local sales rep will contact you to discuss your application.


    Clinical applications

    Used for fast evaluation of metabolic status and renal function across virtually every clinical setting. Common applications include ED triage (rapid assessment of electrolyte imbalances, renal function, and glucose), pre-operative screening, ICU monitoring, dialysis patient management, and any scenario where a broad metabolic picture is needed quickly to guide treatment decisions.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    The CHEM8+ covers all the analytes in a standard basic metabolic panel (Na, K, Cl, CO2, BUN, creatinine, glucose) and adds ionized calcium, hematocrit, and calculated hemoglobin. This gives you more clinical data from a single cartridge and a single blood draw.

    Results are delivered in approximately two minutes from sample application. This is a fraction of the turnaround time from most central laboratories.

    The CHEM8+ is valuable anywhere rapid metabolic assessment matters: emergency departments, intensive care units, operating rooms, dialysis centers, and urgent care facilities. It is one of the most widely used cartridges in the i-STAT system.
