on all assay results. Results of this test should always be interpreted in conjunction with the patient's medical history, clinical presentation
and other findings.
The application sheet lists all combinations of controls and calibrators for use with the reagent and instrument system; other combinations

Appropriately sized aliquots may be prepared using vials from the BC Vial Kit. The aliquots are stable at 2-8 °C for up to 5 days. Before use
the reagent should be mixed carefully and brought to 37 °C. Each vial can be used once up to 2 hours on the BFT* II Analyzer. Discard the
vial after use.
Be sure to swirl the reagent bottle to assure that condensation on the bottle walls is re-mixed into the solution.
Keep cuvettes in the incubation block during the incubation. After incubation is complete place the cuvettes into the measuring channel.

Remarks

System specific MNPT and ISI have to be used.
ISI values for prothrombin time assays must be entered directly as they appear on the current reagent labeling. Any changes of
reagent lot, software upgrades, major servicing, etc., require verification of the ISI value. Failure to enter the correct ISI value will
cause incorrect International Normalization Ratio (INR) results.
In order to report PT % and PT INR “1st conversion” in the BFT*II Analyzer Parameter-Protocol has to be set to “reference curve”. “2nd
conversion” has to be set to “INR”.
To obtain INR without PT %, set “1st conversion” to “none” and “2nd conversion” to “INR”.
The Mean Normal PT (MNPT) can be established with Standard Human Plasma. To use Standard Human Plasma, it has to be measured at
least twice and the obtained clotting time has to be divided by the ratio given for the PT reagent in the “Table of Analytical Values” of the
respective Lot. No. of the plasma.
Do not use the “Tables of values” for conversion of the Prothrombin time into INR as the data are only valid for the Fibrintimer, not the BFT*
II Analyzer.

Appropriately sized aliquots may be prepared using vials from the BC Vial Kit. The aliquots are stable at 2-8 °C for up to 5 days. Before use
the reagent should be mixed carefully and brought to 37 °C. Each vial can be used once up to 2 hours on the BFT* II Analyzer. Discard the
vial after use.
Be sure to swirl the reagent bottle to assure that condensation on the bottle walls is re-mixed into the solution.
Keep cuvettes in the incubation block during the incubation. After incubation is complete place the cuvettes into the measuring channel.

System specific MNPT and ISI have to be used.
ISI values for prothrombin time assays must be entered directly as they appear on the current reagent labeling. Any changes of
reagent lot, software upgrades, major servicing, etc., require verification of the ISI value. Failure to enter the correct ISI value will
cause incorrect International Normalization Ratio (INR) results.
In order to report PT % and PT INR “1st conversion” in the BFT*II Analyzer Parameter-Protocol has to be set to “reference curve”. “2nd
conversion” has to be set to “INR”.
To obtain INR without PT %, set “1st conversion” to “none” and “2nd conversion” to “INR”.
The Mean Normal PT (MNPT) can be established with Standard Human Plasma. To use Standard Human Plasma, it has to be measured at
least twice and the obtained clotting time has to be divided by the ratio given for the PT reagent in the “Table of Analytical Values” of the
respective Lot. No. of the plasma.

System specific MNPT and ISI have to be used.
ISI values for prothrombin time assays must be entered directly as they appear on the current reagent labeling. Any changes of
reagent lot, software upgrades, major servicing, etc., require verification of the ISI value. Failure to enter the correct ISI value will
cause incorrect International Normalization Ratio (INR) results.
“1st conversion” in the BFT* II Analyzer Parameter-Protocol has to be set to “none” and “2nd conversion” to “INR”.

Additional Notes
If expected heparin concentration of the sample is low, the method TT Thromboclotin has to be used.
If expected heparin concentration of the sample is high, the method TT Thromboclotin Hep. high has to be used.
Keep cuvettes in the incubation block during the incubation. After incubation is complete place the cuvettes into the measuring channel.
Before use the reagent has to be mixed carefully.
Materials positioned beside the BFT* II Analyzer have to be kept at room temperature (+15 °C to +25 °C, RT).
