Products: CoaguChek XS system / Product Benefits

Convenient yet safe

Each individual reacts differently to oral anticoagulant treatment. Stress, other medications e.g. some pain killers or antibiotics, diets rich in vitamin K (e.g sprout or cabbage) or alcohol, may interfere with oral anti-coagulant therapy (drugs called vitamin K antagonists). Some conditions like fever or diarrhoea might also have an impact on INR results. It is therefore important to check the PT/INR regularly. The Roche CoaguChek XS system gives very fast (1 min) PT/INR results using capillary blood using only one drop from the fingertip.

With the CoaguChek XS system and Self-Monitoring, you will benefit from more:

Comfort

• One drop of capillary whole blood (only 10 µl) to get a quick (1 min) and precise INR result
  
• Virtually pain-free testing using CoaguChek Softclix lancing device: there is no need for venous blood sampling
  
• Choice between top-dosing and side-dosing options offers an easier application of blood
  
• Possibility to test anywhere and anytime: it is easy to transport due to its low weight and size, and logistics are easy as strips are stable at room temperature (no refrigeration is required)

Safety
You can count on an On-Board-Integrated-System Control (OBIS). It comprises:

• On-board integrity check of every strip directly in the measuring channel (OS2C system)
  
• Failsafe features: device and strip are constantly checked during the measuring process e.g. check for sufficient blood volume application
  
• Automatic control of internal system functions
