More control. More time in therapeutic range.
Built-in wireless, Bluetooth® technology allows you to be connected to your patients, who can now transmit their PT/INR results from their meter to you. This will help you to keep patients on track and in range–anytime, anywhere.
CoaguChek technology and quality have been recognised to facilitate VKA patient self-testing in a safe, accurate and reliable manner.1
Patients who spend a high proportion of time (> 70%) in the therapeutic range achieve better clinical outcomes.2,3 Studies show that this can be achieved through self-testing using CoaguChek technology.1,4
Patients who self-test are more engaged in their own care, test more often and spend more time in therapeutic range.4,5
Patient self-testing has been shown to result in more time spent in therapeutic range,6-8 fewer very high or very low INR values,8 fewer thromboembolic events,9-10 improved patient quality of life,11,12 and better treatment satisfaction11,13 as compared to usual care.
More efficiency in my care facility. More freedom for my patients
A variety of models exists for managing patients of VKA therapy. Learn more about the benefits of point of care and patient self-testing and how we can support you in selecting the right model for you and your patients.
*Do not use the meter at an altitude higher than 14,000 feet (4,300 meters).
