OPTI Medical Systems will be displaying their next generation of blood gas and electrolyte analyzer at the 2022 AACC Clinical Lab Expo (booth #631). The OPTI® CCA-TS2 Blood Gas and Electrolyte Analyzer provides fast accurate results for blood gases, acid-base balance, electrolytes, ionized calcium, glucose, BUN/urea, lactate and additional blood parameters such as total hemoglobin concentration (direct measurement) and oxygen saturation (sO2). The instrument runs samples of whole blood, plasma, and serum on single-use disposable cassettes.
Earlier this year, Lighthouse Lab Services conducted it's first survey of wage and morale among Medical Laboratory Professionals, gathering responses from more than 1,100 individuals across the industry. Our results, which are now available in the report linked below, show a majority of our inaugural respondents are feeling overworked and are performing in understaffed labs, despite most receiving modest bumps in compensation when compared to 2021 salaries.
Overall, our results show an industry that continues to struggle to replace retiring lab professionals at a sustainable rate while also facing challenges created by the recent pandemic. Although many are receiving annual compensation increases of 1% to 5%, a number of respondents indicated better salaries could help to alleviate the recruitment problem.
