## Indications for use
The EasyStat 300 is designed for clinical laboratory use, making quantitative measurements of potassium (K+), ionized calcium (Ca++), and chloride (Cl-) in whole blood (arterial/venous) samples from Li-Heparinized Syringes. This Analyzer should only be used by trained technicians in clinical laboratories to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with electrolyte and/or acid-base disturbances. Potassium (K+) measurements are used to monitor electrolyte balance in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases conditions characterized by low or high blood potassium levels. Calcium (Ca++) (ionized) 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). Chloride (Cl-) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of electrolyte and metabolic disorders such as cystic fibrosis and diabetic acidosis.
