Safer, Faster Department to Laboratory Transport with Tempus1800®

Every Minute Matters—And So Does Every Sample

In every hospital, the speed and reliability of vacutainer transport directly influences TOTAT times and, ultimately, patient care. Delays in blood collection or clinical sample delivery can slow diagnostics, increase risk, and place extra strain on staff.

The Tempus1800® revolutionizes blood vial transport by providing rapid, direct, and secure movement of specimens, maximizing safety and drastically improving TOTAT times.

Move blood, urine, and other specimens directly from the collection point to the lab in under two minutes, bypassing traditional delays and supporting critical STAT orders.
