Description
The HemoCue Glucose 201 DM Analyzer adds data management, operator control and connectivity to lab-quality glucose testing. A built-in barcode scanner, customizable QC lockout and storage for 4,000 patient results keep a multi-operator testing program audit-ready. Results still arrive within a minute from a sample under 5 µL, so connectivity never slows care down.
- Built-in barcode scanner – patient and operator IDs are captured at the bedside without transcription
- QC lockout – quality control intervals are enforced automatically by the analyzer
- 4,000-result memory – patient results, QC results and analyzer settings are stored on board
Connected Glucose Testing for Managed Point-of-Care Programs
The DM system measures glucose by the modified glucose dehydrogenase method and reports plasma-equivalent results across a 0 to 444 mg/dL range. Data moves to the data manager by USB or LAN using the POCT1-A protocol, either directly or through the PDS+ and SDS+ docking stations. A touchscreen interface guides operators, and the analyzer can prompt for and require QC before patient testing continues. Rechargeable batteries and docking-station charging keep the device in service across shifts. The system is built for hospitals and clinics that need glucose results documented, traceable and connected to the record.

Why Programs Choose the Glucose 201 DM
A connected analyzer turns individual glucose results into a managed, documented testing program. The DM model keeps the one-minute HemoCue workflow and adds the identification, lockout and transfer controls that point-of-care coordinators are asked to prove.
- Audit-ready records – barcoded IDs and stored results document who tested whom, and when
- Enforced quality control – QC lockout stops patient testing when control intervals lapse
- Fits existing systems – POCT1-A transfer over USB or LAN connects to common data managers

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the analyzer connect to a data manager?
It transfers by USB or LAN using the POCT1-A protocol, either connected directly or seated in a PDS+ or SDS+ docking station.
What does QC lockout do?
The analyzer can be configured to require quality control at set intervals and to pause patient testing until QC passes.
How many results are stored?
The memory holds 4,000 patient results along with QC results and analyzer settings.
Which microcuvettes does it use?
It uses the dedicated Glucose 201 Microcuvettes, which are stocked separately and require refrigeration.
What package is sold here?
This listing covers the analyzer alone in the Each package configuration, sold as listed. Docking stations and microcuvettes are stocked separately.
