Coagulation analyser IVD, laboratory

Coagulation analysers are laboratory instruments designed to measure blood clotting factors in vitro, helping diagnose bleeding disorders, monitor anticoagulant therapy, and assess patient risk for clotting complications. These devices automate tests like prothrombin time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) using advanced optical or electromagnetic detection methods to analyze clot formation or stability in a clinical sample.

These devices are typically regulated as in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) and may require compliance with standards like ISO 13485 or CE marking for European markets. They are generally supplied as standalone analysers with disposable cartridges or reagents, often requiring specialized training for operation in clinical or research settings.
