CoaguChek aPTT Test

With the CoaguChek aPTT test strips, which are specially designed for the CoaguChek Pro II System from Roche, the activated partial thromoplastin time (aPTT) can be determined quickly and easily within  5 minutes at the point-of-care . This enables mobile monitoring of anticoagulation therapy in real time. The measured values (plasma equivalent seconds) are comparable to the precision of laboratory results. For quality control purposes, a code chip is included in each package, which reads relevant information on the test method, lot number as well as the expiry date into the CoaguChek Pro II system.

Important Note: For healthcare professionals only.
Thetest may only be performed and interpreted by a physician or a person authorized by a physician. Medical laypersons may use and interpret the test incorrectly.
