Activated clotting time(ACT)

Activated coagulation time ACT can be used to monitor the anticoagulability of heparin, which is of great significance for monitoring the clinical use of heparin. Sometimes the test is used in conjunction with the PT test to determine whether bleeding is due to an excess of anticoagulants or to clotting factor depletion.

Application
● Time Extension: Common in significant reduction in platelets, severe deficiency of blood coagulation factors, taking anticoagulant drugs.
