    i-STAT G Cartridge

    Dedicated glucose-only cartridge for rapid blood glucose assessment


    Product overview

    The i-STAT G cartridge is a dedicated glucose-only test that delivers results in approximately two minutes from a small capillary, arterial, or venous whole blood sample. It is intended for the quantification of glucose and is used in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders. The 65 uL sample volume makes it suitable for settings where blood conservation is a priority. The current product code is 03P83-26, reflecting an updated FDA clearance. The cartridge is approved for use in patients ranging from neonates through adults.


    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 rapid assessment of blood glucose in critical care settings, including management of diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, idiopathic hypoglycemia, and pancreatic islet cell carcinoma. The i-STAT G provides lab-quality glucose results, which may be preferred over standard glucometers in critical care settings where accuracy at extreme glucose values is especially important. The broad age range clearance (neonates through adults) makes it applicable in NICUs, pediatric units, and adult critical care alike.

    Storage and handling

    Cartridges should be stored refrigerated at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius. Once removed from refrigeration, cartridges can be stored at room temperature (18 to 30 degrees Celsius) for up to 14 days. Allow cartridges to reach room temperature before testing. Do not freeze or store above 30 degrees Celsius.


    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why use an i-STAT glucose cartridge instead of a standard glucometer?

    The i-STAT G provides lab-quality glucose results with documented accuracy across a wide range (20-700 mg/dL). Standard glucometers may have reduced accuracy at very high or very low glucose levels, which is exactly when accuracy matters most in critical care. The i-STAT G is also less susceptible to interference from common medications and conditions.

    Yes. The G cartridge accepts arterial, venous, and capillary whole blood samples. The 65 uL sample volume can be collected via capillary draw.

    If glucose is the only value you need, the G cartridge is the most cost-effective option. If you also need electrolytes, renal function markers, and hematocrit, the CHEM8+ provides glucose along with a full metabolic panel in one cartridge.
