3.1 - AlinIQ CWi - Customization Workspace for
i-STAT
This secon contains a general descripon of the CWi (Customizaon Workspace for i‑STAT). i‑STAT
Alinity instruments can be customized for use in a variety of healthcare sengs. Abbo Point of Care
recommends that you read this document in its enrety before logging in to CWi. Specics on the
funcons and features are outlined in the following secons.
CWi is a web-based soware applicaon that enables healthcare professionals to manage customizaon
sengs for the i‑STAT Alinity instrument. Customizaon sengs allow the HCO to change the user
experience at the individual instrument level. CWi also manages users that maintain the customizaon of
the i
‑STAT Alinity.
Out-of-the-box, the i‑STAT Alinity is a fully-funconing instrument whose workow contains no
customizaon. Customizaon allows the healthcare organizaon to change the operang characteriscs
of each instrument. For example, the instrument, out-of-the-box, has no reference ranges dened. To
dene these ranges and upload them to the instrument(s), a prole must be created.
A prole is a collecon of customizaon opons found in categories. Each instrument within a healthcare
organizaon (HCO) can have a dierent prole. The specics of the prole are determined by the needs
of the operang locaon. As an example, for an instrument used in the NICU it may be necessary to turn
o the instrument's sound to avoid disturbing the infants or to prompt operators to perform required
quality control tesng.
Customizaon also enables the administrator or POCC to establish acon ranges based on a variety of
age ranges. In
addion, an administrator or POCC may establish acons to be taken when results fall
outside of the reference range. Customizaon may be used to require operators to record crical
callback documentaon on the instrument.
Workspaces
CWi is a collecon of three workspaces. The workspaces are:
Manage and Assemble Proles
Use this workspace to dene the instrument's sengs for opons such as data entry format,
inacvity me interval allowed before powering o, and acon to take when the memory is full.
Most of the customizaon of the i‑STAT Alinity is accomplished using the opons in the Prole
workspace.
