Event Description
|
We received an allegation of questionable inr results for 1 patient tested on a coaguchek xs meter compared to another coaguchek xs meter at a different facility (coagulation clinic).At 10:25 am the patient was tested in the pain management clinic and received a meter result of 1.0 inr.The patient was then tested in a coagulation clinic in the same building and received a meter result of 1.9 inr.The time difference between the test measurements was within minutes.The physician believed that 1.9 inr was the correct result.The patient¿s therapeutic range was not provided.Reportedly, the result of 1.9 inr was alleged to be outside the patient's therapeutic range.
