GEM Hemochron 100 ACT+ Protocol

I am working on obtaining one as well. Honestly our idea for policy is to just include it in the ACT LR policy but add the ACT+ to parts for QC, or cuvettes, just indicating that QC will require the ACT+ tab to be selected. I have not found any "reference ranges" as this is a clotting test but I've been told anything >350 for an aFib ablation is ideal. 

We are also about to go live with the ACT+ in our heart OR and the perfusionist stated they wanted a target range of 480-999. I am not sure if this is what you are referring to but when I spoke to Werfen the consultant stated that we needed to figure out what we wanted our target range to be. I think this will also come once we do the validations. 

What are people planning on using for accuracy and precisoin in terms of material. We are going to try to use the QC but is there anything else that should get used? 

We are evaluating the GH100 to see if it meets our needs. Our EP Lab would want the ACT+. The vendor said the heparin curve would be done in validation.
