• Rapid results
  The cobas h 232 system gives cardiac test results within 8 - 12 minutes. The cobas h 232 system is always at hand and ready to use with minimal handling steps to perform the tests, and provides rapid, on the spot decision support for treatment, referral, or discharge of cardiovascular patients.
• Hassle-free usage allows for more time with the patient
  The cobas h 232 system features automatic calibration and is maintenance-free. It offers versatile application (carry to the bedside or use in fixed location) to suit the workflow, and needs just one whole blood sample to perform a test. The icon-based user guidance enables intuitive handling of the instrument.
• Better resource efficiency
  When resources are limited, the cobas h 232 system provides cardiac test results with a reduced turnaround time which, in combination with appropriate decision protocols, has been shown to reduce length of stay and save costs.(1) Using single test strips instead of a fixed multi-marker panel allows selective and relevant testing for each specific patient's case so that users' pay only for the tests that are warranted by the patient condition.
• High level of laboratory correlation provides peace of mind
  The cobas h 232 system provides results that are comparable to Roche laboratory methods and uses Roche CARDIAC strips for which studies have shown a high level of clinical concordance with laboratory results.
