## Indications for use
The Rapidlab 1200 system series is intended for in vitro diagnostic use by healthcare professionals in the quantitative testing of samples of whole blood for the following parameters: * partial pressure of carbon dioxide * partial pressure of oxygen * pH * sodium * potassium * ionized calcium * chloride * glucose * lactate * CO-oximetry parameters (tHb, FO2Hb, FCOHb, FMetHb, FHHb) The following list includes the indication for use information for each analyte measured on the Rapidlab 1200 System Series: pCO 2, P0 2,pH. Measurements of blood gases (PCO2, P02) and blood pH are used in the diagnosis and treatment of life-threatening acid-base disturbances. Sodium. Sodium measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of aldosteronism (excessive secretion of the hormone aldosterone), diabetes insipidus (chronic excretion of large amounts of dilute urine, accompanied by extreme thirst), adrenal hypertension, Addison's disease (caused by destruction of the adrenal glands), dehydration, inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion, or other diseases involving electrolyte imbalance. Potassium. Potassium measurements obtained by this device are used to monitor electrolyte balance in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases conditions characterized by low or high blood potassium levels. Chloride. Chloride measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of electrolyte and metabolic disorders such as cystic fibrosis and diabetic acidosis. Ionized calcium. Calcium measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of parathyroid disease, a variety of bone diseases, chronic renal disease and tetany (intermittent muscular contractions or spasms). Glucose. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma. Lactate. Lactic acid measurements that evaluate the acid-base status are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lactic acidosis (abnormally high acidity of the blood). Total hemoglobin. Total hemoglobin measurements are used to determine the hemoglobin content of human blood. Oxyhemoglobin. Oxyhemoglobin measurements are used to measure the hemoglobin content of whole blood for the detection of anemia. Carboxyhemoglobin. Carboxyhemoglobin measurements are used to determine the carboxyhemoglobin (the compound formed when hemoglobin is exposed to carbon monoxide) content of human blood as an aid in the diagnosis of carbon monoxide poisoning. Sulfhemoglobin. Sulfhemoglobin measurements are used to determine the sulfhemoglobin (a compound of sulfur and hemoglobin) content of human blood as an aid in the diagnosis of sulfhemoglobinemia (presence of sulfhemoglobin in the blood due to drug administration or exposure to a poison).
