White blood cell count and hemoglobin levels at the point-of-care, with laboratory accurate results

A white blood cell count and a hemoglobin test provide valuable information about a patient’s health. With point-of-care testing products from HemoCue^®, you can have immediate access to test results with an accuracy and precision normally only available in a laboratory. Taking a hemoglobin test and a white blood cell count at point-of-care may also provide an alternative under some clinical situations when a complete blood count (CBC) is not readily available .

This can be the case in for example the emergency care, in the primary care, or in rural areas. In fact, for any hematology situation where your patient might benefit from a speedy and correct diagnosis, consult the HemoCue^® product portfolio or talk to a HemoCue^® representative.

The HemoCue^® WBC system delivers a laboratory accurate total white blood cell count within minutes at the point-of-care. Information about the white blood cell count, in combination with clinical examination and medical history, provides valuable information for the clinical decision in a wide array of clinical situations. Today, doctors are normally depending on sending the test to a lab, often as a full CBC, which means that there is a time lag until the result is available and can be used for a medical decision. In many situations, the patient is no longer available for example at the doctor’s office when the test result arrives. Thus, the HemoCue^® WBC system enables a more streamlined work flow with results available when needed.
