Key Features
High-Visibility Design: The label uses a bright red background with bold, black "STAT" text. This color and word combination is a universal healthcare standard designed to be instantly noticed and understood as "Urgent" or "Immediately."
Clear and Concise Message: The single word "STAT" (from the Latin statim) provides an unmistakable, standardized instruction, eliminating ambiguity and reducing the potential for verbal miscommunication.
Compact Size: At 3/8" x 1-1/4", the label is small enough to be affixed to a wide variety of items—from patient charts to small specimen tubes—without obscuring critical information.
Strong Adhesive: The labels are made with a permanent adhesive designed to stick securely to common healthcare surfaces like paper, plastic bags, and glass or plastic vials.
Dispenser Roll Format: Packaged as a roll of 1,000, it is designed for quick and easy application in busy environments like nurses' stations, laboratories, and pharmacies.
Primary Uses
This label serves as a critical visual cue to prioritize tasks and expedite patient care. It is used to flag items that require immediate attention. Common applications include:
Laboratory Specimens: Placed on blood vials, culture swabs, and other biological samples to ensure they are moved to the front of the line for testing and analysis.
Patient Charts and Requisitions: Affixed to physician's orders, lab/radiology request forms, and patient files to indicate that the requested action (e.g., a consult, procedure, or test) is urgent.
Radiology and Imaging: Used on orders for X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs for patients with critical conditions that require immediate diagnosis.
