Indication for Use

The hep-tem® is a semi-quantitative in vitro diagnostic assay used on the ROTEM® delta Thromboelastometry System to monitor the coagulation process via the intrinsic pathway in the presence of unfractionated heparin, in citrated whole blood specimens.  The hep-tem® reagent is used to inactivate heparin in patients receiving unfractionated heparin. Clotting characteristics are described by the functional parameters Clotting Time (CT), Speed of Clot Formation (CFT and alpha angle), Clot Firmness (A20/MCF) and Clot Lysis (LOT, ML, Ll(x)).

The indication for ROTEM® delta use is with adult patients where an evaluation of their blood coagulation properties is desired. Coagulation evaluations with the ROTEM® delta are commonly used to assess clinical conditions in organ transplantation, cardiovascular surgery, cardiology procedures and trauma to assess post-operative hemorrhage and/or thrombosis.

The hep-tem® reagent is always used in combination with in-tem®.
