Medtronic ACT Plus

The Medtronic ACT Plus combines precision clot detection technology with data management and Connectivity-ready capabilities. The Medtronic ACT Plus System is a microprocessor-Controlled Electromechanical Coagulation instrument. The System can determine coagulation endpoints in fresh and citrated whole blood and plasma samples. The ACT Plus System is portable making it ideal for point of care testing situations like during cardiovascular and vascular surgeries.

The Medtronic ACT Plus Coagulation timer had a crystal clean LCD Display that makes it easy to view the results. The System can store data as well as transfers data to external storage.

• Large LED readouts to view test results from a distance
• LCD screen and keyboard for managing key parameters
• Store up to 500 patient and QC records
• Easy navigation between screens
• Supports the latest requirements for POC testing equipment
• Optional Bar Code Scanner for quick and accurate entry of cartridge and control lot numbers and expiration dates.

The ACT Plus System is portable and well suited for all point-of-care testing situations. It offers the reliability required in:

• Cardiovascular and vascular surgery
• ECMO
• Cardiac catheterization laboratories
• Critical care units
• Hemodialysis units

Builtin Efficiency

• Immediate results mean anticoagulant dosages can be adjusted quickly.
• Dual-well testing provides the extra confidence that only duplicate results provide.
• Because less than 1 ml of blood is required for each test, the ACT Plus™ System is especially suited for patients with small blood volumes.
• Bar Code Scanner (optional) is used for accurate entry of cartridge and control lot numbers and expiration dates.

Scientific Accuracy

• Full range of lyophilized controls and electronic control are available to verify instrument, cartridge, and operator performance and meet regulatory guidelines for testing.
• Lyophilized controls are easy to reconstitute and provide enough volume to test multiple instruments.
• Electronic control provides multiple-level testing in one device.
