The PICO A blood gas aspirating syringe is intended for the collection of arterial and venous blood for analysis of pH, blood gas, oximetry, electrolytes and metabolites.

The PICO A has been designed to help operators reduce the risk of clots without diluting the sample and minimize the risk of accidental blood spillage.

Support Patient Blood Management

0.5 mL label clearly shows the minimum amount of blood you need to measure a full panel of results using ABL blood gas analyzers.

Facilitate the analytical quality of the blood gas sample for reliable results

Uniquely designed heparin reduces the risk of blood clots, sample dilution and electrolyte bias.

Minimize the risk of contact with patient blood

PICO A TIPCAP helps seal the sample after blood collection while the hard stop helps ensure that the barrel and plunger remain together.

Manage patient blood with confidence

Patients’ own blood is a valuable resource – let’s treat it as such

Radiometer is a proud advocate of Patient Blood Management, an evidence-based model of care aimed at improving patient outcomes through conserving and managing patients’ own blood.

Blood gas sample volume matters

Taking frequent blood gas samples is often central to best practice, but taking superfluous sample volumes may pose additional, unnecessary risks.

Take less, without compromise

PICO A syringes have recommended blood sample volumes of 0.5mL and a hard stop. This protective stop feature prevents operators from taking more than 1.0 mL of blood.

With greater control over the plunger of the syringe, operators can minimize potential exposure to patient blood and support Patient Blood Management.
