The NX-102 Optical Express Hemostasis Analyzer is a portable battery-powered device.
Operating Principle
The device performs tests of the hemostasis system using citrated whole blood.
The test is performed using a test strip and adding a drop of blood to the well of the device.
The analyzer is equipped with a heating element that heats the test strip to the required temperature.
The test strip contains a rotating element with paddles that draws the sample into the reaction well after it is added to the sample well.
The stirrer paddles rotate across the path of the infrared light beam and mix the liquid sample with the reagent that has been dried in the reaction well.
During the clotting process, the clot is lifted by the stirrer, interrupting the path of the light beam that is recorded by the device.
An internal timer measures the time elapsed between the start of the test and the formation of a clot.
During the test, the clotting time (in sec.) is displayed. The prothrombin time result is also displayed as INR.
The analyzer is designed for in vitro monitoring.
