Company to Offer Practitioners Point-of-Care Hemoglobin Analyzer for
Fast Delivery of Blood Test Results
Henry Schein Medical, the U.S. medical business of Henry Schein, Inc.
(Nasdaq: HSIC), announced today its new private label-branded product,
OneStep™ + Pro Hb Analyzer, a portable, reagent-free hemoglobin
analyzer, which measures hemoglobin concentration as a result of a
fingerstick blood test. Distributed in the United States, the analyzer
can quickly determine low or high levels of hemoglobin, making it
possible for practitioners to determine why a patient may be fatigued or
not feeling well.
“We have been working diligently to expand our private label portfolio
with cost-effective, high-quality solutions our customers can rely on to
meet their practice and patient needs,” said Brad Connett, President,
U.S. Medical Group, Henry Schein. “With the addition of OneStep + Pro Hb
Analyzer, customers at physicians’ offices, clinics and other
non-traditional laboratory locations can deliver quick and convenient
tests thanks to a premier analyzer with reliable, laboratory-quality
performance.”
The OneStep + Pro Hb Analyzer provides clinicians at Physician Office
Labs, Family/Internal Medicine clinics, OB/GYN Centers, Pediatric
clinics, Planned Parenthoods, Community Health Centers and Urgent Cares
with accurate hemoglobin and hematocrit measurements within
three seconds of collecting a blood sample in a cuvette - a
straight-sided, optically clear container for holding liquid samples -
and inserting into the analyzer. This helps ensure fast results for
patient health checks and anemia screening at the point-of-care setting.
