Cuvette | Intended Use | Specimen |
ACT-LR | Monitors low to moderate heparin doses up to 2.5 units/mL of blood. Used in procedures such as cardiac catherization, Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO), dialysis and Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty. | Whole blood |
ACT+ | Monitors moderate to high levels of heparin (1-6 units/mL). Unaffected by aprotinin, hypothermia, and hemodilution. | Whole blood |
PT | For performing a quantitative, one-stage prothrombin time. | Venous or fingerstick samples |
Citrate PT | For performing a quantitative, one-stage prothrombin time. | Citrated whole blood |
APTT | For performing a quantitative, one-stage APTT. For evaluation of low dose heparin anticoagulation (up to 1.5 units/mL of blood). | Whole blood |
Citrate APTT | For performing a quantitative, one-stage APTT. For evaluation of low dose heparin anticoagulation (up to 1.5 units/mL of blood). | Citrated whole blood |
