Roche Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland) will showcase a cutting-edge interactive and solutions-focused exhibit at the 2022 American Association of Clinical Chemistry (AACC) Scientific Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo, July 24-28 in Chicago.
The Roche exhibit booth (No. 2002) will feature the latest solutions that can connect laboratory systems, analyze data and drive new efficiencies so labs have more time to focus on delivering better patient care. To address current laboratory challenges, Roche will also introduce the Roche Idea Lab, where experts in areas critical to laboratory success will provide key insights. These areas include a lab’s success in health equity and testing access, staffing pressures, data optimization, and improving clinical outcomes for patients with cardiometabolic, neurodegenerative and infectious diseases. Roche will also present 11 interactive workshops as part of the Idea Lab to share best practices and provide answers on topics that matter most in today’s evolving lab environment.
The Roche exhibit booth will feature demonstrations of 18 innovative systems, including the cobas pro and cobas pure serum work area solutions, the cobas 5800 molecular system and the cobas pulse point-of-care professional glucose management solution. The cobas 5800 system allows labs to improve the productivity of their floor space by running a broad menu of assays from a small footprint, using fully automated and standardized workflows. The cobas 5800 System helps labs by making automation, consolidation, integration and standardization more accessible than ever before. The cobas pulse system is an industry first professional blood glucose management solution with mobile digital health capabilities to help improve patient care. Designed to help improve workflows and change healthcare in favor of cost efficiency and better patient care, the cobas pulse system is the gateway to the future of digital health.
