HemoCue Hb 801

Anyone using this? One of my departments purchased this without my knowledge and we are trying to help them get this into practice. 

What are you doing for quality control? The manual states that it has "an internal quality control, a self test". I have not been able to find out if this is a single point test or multi. I would rather not have to require the department to run QC daily. There is no QC lock out so requiring it will be difficult. Thanks in advance for any help!

My clinics have the HemoCue Hb 201+ and they use the below:

HemoCue HCLNH3 R&D Glu/Hgb® Dual Control Starter Kit for Analyzers, 1.5mL/vial, 3 vials/bx

| MFR#: HCLNH3 | TIGER#: TM73687

We use the HemoCue 801. We do not require/run external QC, when we brought it in there were no controls in the US that had been approved, although I believe there are now. 

Full Disclosure: I am the Product Specialist for Eurotrol.

We have HemoTrol Duo which is an approved QC for the HemoCue 801.  3 levels- low,normal and high.
