The Hemochron Signature Elite is a highly reliable, fully portable point-of-care coagulation analyzer designed to provide rapid and accurate results at the patient's bedside. Widely utilized in cardiovascular operating rooms, cardiac catheterization laboratories, intensive care units, and emergency departments, this device facilitates timely clinical decision-making during critical procedures requiring heparin management and other coagulation assessments.

Featuring an integrated barcode scanner, the Hemochron Signature Elite streamlines workflow by allowing quick and error-free entry of operator and patient identification. The system supports a broad menu of microcoagulation tests, including Activated Clotting Time (ACT-LR, ACT-F), Prothrombin Time (PT), and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT), utilizing minimal whole blood samples to deliver lab-equivalent accuracy.

With its robust data management capabilities, the analyzer stores extensive patient test results and quality control records, which can be easily transferred to a hospital information system (HIS) or laboratory information system (LIS). Its automated electronic quality control (EQC) system further ensures compliance and instrument integrity, making it an indispensable tool for point-of-care coagulation monitoring.
