CoaguChek XS PT Test Strips – Precision INR Monitoring at Your Fingertips

The CoaguChek XS PT Test Strips (Product Code: 04625315172) are essential diagnostic tools for patients on Warfarin or other anticoagulation therapies. Monitoring Prothrombin Time (PT) and International Normalized Ratio (INR) is critical to preventing complications, and these strips provide the accuracy and reliability required for both healthcare professionals and home-care users. Developed by Roche, the CoaguChek system is globally recognized for bridging the gap between laboratory testing and point-of-care convenience.

Lab-Quality Results in Sixty Seconds

Speed and precision are at the core of the CoaguChek XS PT Test Strips. Utilizing a simple fingerstick (capillary) blood sample, the system delivers highly accurate INR results in approximately 60 seconds. This rapid feedback allows clinicians to make immediate adjustments to medication dosages and empowers patients to manage their health with confidence, reducing the need for frequent, invasive venous blood draws at a laboratory.

Key Features & Benefits

• Integrated Quality Control: Unlike other systems, the CoaguChek XS PT Test Strips perform an automated onboard quality control check within the same test chamber as the patient sample, ensuring every result is valid and accurate.

• Minimal Sample Size: Requires only a tiny 8μl fingerstick blood sample, making the testing process virtually painless compared to traditional methods.

• Professional & Home Versatility: Rugged enough for high-volume clinical use and simple enough for patients to operate at home for self-monitoring.

• Heparin Insensitivity: These strips are insensitive to therapeutic levels of unfractionated and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), providing a pure INR reading for patients on Vitamin K antagonists.

• Highly Efficient Design: The side or top-dosing options make it easy to apply the blood sample to the strip, minimizing waste and errors.

• Extended Supply: This box contains 48 individual test strips (split into two 24-count containers), ideal for consistent, long-term monitoring.

Why Choose CoaguChek for Anticoagulation Control?

Consistency is the most important factor in coagulation management. The CoaguChek XS PT Test Strips use a human recombinant thromboplastin with an ISI (International Sensitivity Index) of 1.0, which means the results are highly comparable to those achieved in a hospital laboratory. This level of precision helps avoid the “peaks and valleys” of anticoagulation, keeping patients within their target therapeutic range more consistently.
