Abstract

Femoral arterial access for coronary angiography is infrequent but still in use. Point-of-care (POC) activated clotting time (ACTs) analyzers to guide the timing of femoral sheath removal require increasingly disproportionate use of resources in ongoing maintenance and quality assurance for a low volume test. It is hypothesized that there is a strong correlation between POC ACTs and laboratory-determined anti-Xa unfractionated heparin (UFH) levels.
