這種i-Lynx設(shè)備為對(duì)心臟STATus快速檢查結(jié)果解釋時(shí)候存在的個(gè)體差異提供了解決方案，同時(shí)還為床邊監(jiān)護(hù)系統(tǒng)、醫(yī)院計(jì)算機(jī)化病例和實(shí)驗(yàn)室檢查提供了資料獲取和連接的功能。這種i-Lynx and和心臟STATus 檢查都是由加拿大Spectral診斷公司研制開發(fā)的。心臟STATus檢查是一種快速檢查方法，用以檢查心肌梗塞的指標(biāo)。

根據(jù)Spectral公司的說法，該公司以前發(fā)現(xiàn)醫(yī)院設(shè)備對(duì)快速檢查有著市場(chǎng)需求，特別是重癥醫(yī)學(xué)。盡管人工目測(cè)方便而快速，但是不同人員的解釋存在差異，缺乏永久的證據(jù)以及不能夠與醫(yī)院病例進(jìn)行整合，限制了他們的使用。設(shè)計(jì)這套i-Lynx的目的就是為了解決上述問題。

Spectral診斷公司的總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官Paul Walker說：“市場(chǎng)對(duì)i-Lynx的初步認(rèn)可接受讓我們感到十分滿意。我們現(xiàn)在正在將這些設(shè)備不斷發(fā)往新的以及老的客戶醫(yī)院。醫(yī)院對(duì)快速心臟指標(biāo)檢測(cè)的需求仍然十分強(qiáng)烈，我們的i-Lynx為此提供了全新的解決方案。”

Instrument Interprets Cardiac Test
 
A new instrument offers automated interpretation of a rapid cardiac tests as well as information-management of the results.

The i-Lynx instrument offers a solution to individual differences in interpretation of the cardiac STATus rapid test and also provides data capture and connectivity to point-of-care systems and to a hospital’s computerized patient and laboratory records. Both the i-Lynx and the cardiac STATus test were developed by Spectral Diagnostics, Inc. (Toronto, Canada). The cardiac STATus test is a rapid test that measures markers of myocardial infarction.

According to Spectral, the company previously identified a market need in rapid testing in the hospital setting, particularly in critical illness situations. Although visual read-outs are convenient and rapid, differences in interpretation, lack of a permanent record and integration with other hospital records have limited their usefulness. The i-Lynx is designed to change that.

“We are very pleased with the early market acceptance of the i-Lynx,” said Dr. Paul Walker, president and CEO of Spectral Diagnostics. “We have now placed these instruments in both new and existing customer hospitals. The need for hospitals to meet rapid cardiac marker testing guidelines remains strong, and the i-Lynx provides an innovative solution.”

Spectral Diagnostics is a developer of innovative technologies for rapid diagnostics that enable the early initiation of appropriate and targeted therapy. The company has also developed rapid diagnostics for sepsis.
