CoaguChek XS PT (PST) x24 for INR Normal Range

CoaguChek XS PT test strips measure prothrombin time (PT/INR) from a small fingertip blood sample in about one minute. Designed for patient self-monitoring of oral anticoagulation therapy (warfarin), each strip works with the CoaguChek XS meter and the CoaguChek INRange system.

Each vial of 24 strips includes a code chip that must be inserted into the meter before using strips from that vial. The code chip stays in the meter until the vial is finished. Built-in quality controls run automatically with every test, verifying both the strip and the meter's internal systems without any extra steps.

Key Features

• 24 Test Strips Per Vial - Cost-effective supply for regular INR self-monitoring at home or in clinic
• Fast Results - PT/INR reading from a small capillary blood sample in approximately 60 seconds
• Automatic Quality Control - Each strip runs built-in checks to verify accuracy, no separate QC solution needed
• Code Chip Included - Unique chip calibrates the meter to the strip lot for reliable readings
• Fresh Capillary Blood - Requires only a small fingertip sample, no venepuncture necessary

Ideal For
