Purchasing the Pronto allows you to measure SpO2 with Masimo SET technology, but the Pronto also has the SpHb parameter built in and only requires the purchase of a Rainbow Direct Connect SC-360 or SC-200, Adult or Pediatric Reusable Direct Connect sensor to be able to noninvasively measure Total Hemoglobin.
Traditional invasive lab testing provides delayed results and requires a painful needle stick and time-consuming blood draws. The Pronto with a SpHb sensor attached offers noninvasive and quick spot-check testing of total hemoglobin (SpHb), SpO2, pulse rate, and perfusion index, which may provide the following benefits:
Clinician
- Facilitates timely patient assessment
- Reduces the need to wait for lab results
Staff
- Easy-to-use — reduces training time and improves efficiency
- Decreases risk of accidental needle sticks and exposure to blood- borne pathogens
- Requires no lab consumables or waste disposal
Patient
- Reduces painful needle sticks and time-consuming blood draws
- Enables immediate face-to-face counseling with clinician
The Pronto provides a positive financial contribution to a facility with a reimbursement of $7.00 and a cost per test of $2.00 to $2.50 when used to take a SpHb reading.
