We use the IL Gem blood gas analyser to measure lactates. Putting it
onto the gas analyser meant we have not another piece of equipment to
look after, train on, keep records on etc. EQA is included with the
blood gas samples and we have had no problems with the performance. The
cartridges are changed either 21 or 28 days depending on the cartridge
size.
