Why Cascade POC?
The Cascade POC analyzer and unique reagent system are useful in monitoring routine anticoagulants as well as antithrombotic drugs used to treat angina, myocardial infarction, stroke, deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary and arterial emboli. A built-in battery pack and QC lockout features make it ideal for use in the catheterization laboratory, cardiac surgery, the emergency room as well warfarin clinics and physician's offices. Cascade POC offers a rapid POC assay for monitoring the anticoagulant effects of warfarin as well as Sanofi-Aventis low molecular weight heparin, Lovenox®/Clexane®.
