The CoaguChek XS System is a portable, handheld blood coagulation monitoring system designed for professional use in clinics and for patient self-testing at home. Its primary function is to measure Prothrombin Time (PT) and report it as an International Normalized Ratio (INR) value. This is crucial for patients on long-term anticoagulation therapy with Vitamin K Antagonists, like warfarin (Coumadin®).
