Patient Hypotensive? Febrile? Tachypneic?


Measure Lactate Bedside Fast, easy bedside lactate testing


StatStrip Lactate is a hand-held, true point-of-care system that brings lactate testing directly to the patient’s bedside. StatStrip Lactate’s single-use, disposable biosensor provides the fastest turnaround time (13 seconds) on the smallest whole blood sample (0.6 µl) with lab-like accuracy. Lactate results are electronically or wirelessly transmitted to the patient’s medical record


SSC Hour-1 Bundle calls for early lactate


measurement of tissue hypoperfusion Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) has introduced the 2018 Hour-1 Sepsis Bundle for early recognition and management of sepsis. The SSC Hour-1 Bundle includes obtaining blood for lactate measurement within the first hour of sepsis recognition and to remeasure lactate if the initial lactate is >2 mmol/L.1 The campaign suggests guiding resuscitation to normalize lactate in patients with elevated lactate levels as a marker of tissue hypoperfusion.1


CMS SEP-1 quality metric includes early


lactate measurement of tissue hypoperfusion Consistent with the SSC Hour-1 bundle, US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has introduced the Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock: SEP-1 Management Bundle to assess the quality of sepsis care in hospitals. The SEP-1 metric calls for lactate measurement to be completed within 3 hours of sepsis recognition.2
