Medtronic ACT Plus Features
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 clear LCD Display that made it easy to view the results. The System can store data as well as transfer 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 cartridges 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 cartridges and control lot numbers and expiration dates.
Scientific Accuracy
- A full range of lyophilized controls and electronic controls 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.
