Coag-Sense
Coag-Sense is a company specializing in the development and manufacture of medical diagnostic devices, particularly PT Testing Devices. These devices are designed to accurately measure the time it takes for blood to clot, an essential factor for patients undergoing oral anticoagulant therapy with Warfarin. By determining prothrombin time, these devices help monitor the effectiveness of the anticoagulant and ensure that patients maintain their therapeutic range to prevent complications like blood clots or excessive bleeding. In addition to the PT testing devices, Coag-Sense provides a range of accessories that support both clinicians and patients who conduct tests at home. These accessories are tailored to enhance the ease of use and accuracy of prothrombin time measurements, thereby supporting overall patient care and treatment monitoring.
Coag-Sense PT2: Blood Clot Monitoring with Precision and Speed
Coag-Sense's flagship product is the Coag-Sense PT2 PT/INR Monitoring System. This meter directly measures clot formation, providing the actual prothrombin time in seconds. By eschewing the use of look-up tables or curve-fitting algorithms, it delivers accurate results swiftly - typically in less than a minute. Key features include:
- Precision Technology: Employs a micro-mechanical detection process for high accuracy that remains unaffected by hemoglobin levels.
- Direct INR Measurement: Provides prothrombin time directly, offering quick results in under a minute.
- Simple Sample Collection: Requires just a 10 µl drop of blood, making testing easy and safe.
- Flexible Testing: Suitable for both clinical and home use, it enhances patient compliance and ensures continuity of care.
Essential Accessories for the PT2 System
Accessories are vital for users of the PT2. The Coag-Sense Safety Lancet Needle is a crucial tool for this system, offering a single-use, auto-disabling 21 g, 2.2 mm depth auto safety lancet. It is designed for both clinicians and home patients to easily and safely procure a blood sample necessary for monitoring.
Additionally, the Coag-Sense Coagulation Control Strip Kit enhances the functionality of the PT2. This kit comprises five high control strips, five low control strips, and control activation solution. It allows users to conduct quality control tests to ensure the PT2 system is performing accurately. Each control strip is impregnated with plasma of a known INR, enabling a comprehensive liquid quality control test that assesses both the reagent's clotting capabilities and the analyzer's clot detection efficiency.
