Abstract
The blood gas assay is one of the most important procedures that need to be performed in case of an emergency. In the intensive care, emergency, pediatrics, nephrology, neonatal it is mandatory for the results of the arterial blood gas assay to be precise and accurate. A proper mixing procedure is required before analyzing the sample in order to prevent blood coagulation and to harmonize the content. An automated mixing system can be the solution for assuring the correct analysis procedures which implies providing the correct results and the proper functionality of the blood gas analyzer. An original prototype of this kind of system will be presented in this paper.
