Said: : "You might just be aware that the INR on I-STAT is only FDA approved as a monitor for Coumadin therapy. Any other usage is off label so be sure that ED staff are qualified to perform high complexity testing."

Said: : "There is an ED consultant that states this is a must have. We have kept POCT mostly out of our ED, but am seeing the writing on the wall that eventually I will need to offer some testing."

Said: : "We do not perform INR on iSTAT in the ED. I am interested in who has requested it and for what reason."

Said: : "What is the device you are considering? We use the iSTAT CG4+ cartridge for lactate. One stick and results in less than 4 minutes."

iSTAT INR and Creat in ED

: "Hello All,
I am looking for Coordinators out there that have iSTAT (or comparable product) INR and Creat in their ED/ER. I am wondering what QA/QM measures you have in place for safety and CMS/CAP/CLIA regulations. I don't have this testing in place, but am looking ahead to probably having to offer these tests.
Thank you,
Max"
