transport monitoring at high temperatures

  • 1 Hospital Core Lab – Only Blood Bank
  • 5 Outreach Collection Stations
  • 500 samples transported and delivered daily to the Lab
  • All samples are analyzed to guarantee the blood meets the standards
  • Switching and losing samples implies having to discard the corresponding donors’ bags
  • Transport conditions were monitored with a data logger in a non-isothermal case
  • Sample transport takes long hours in ambient temperatures up to 30ºC
  • The required low temperatures for sample stability were not maintained during transport – target with indexor is to reach temperatures below 10ºC
  • The iLogger automatically monitors and records data on temperature and any impacts on the samples
  • Sample transports with the iLogger isothermal case, prepared with ice packs – iLogger helps maintain temperatures below 10ºC
  • Automatic reports facilitate sample quality control is required to meet strict
    sample control regulation
  • Indexor allows for an automated sample check-in and shows alerts with transport issues and missing samples
