We have around 6 or 7 in the hospital to include 2 new devices in ED. None in theatres.

Subject: CoaguChek in general theatre
Hi
General theatre have approached me regarding the need for a CoaguChek device for POC INR testing. I have asked them for evidence that procedures are currently being delayed/cancelled due to waiting for INR results from the laboratory. I have been informed that it is common place to have POC INR testing in general theatres within other Trusts, and so I was wondering if this is the case and what your experiences have been? Has there been any improvement regarding cancellations and delays where POC INR testing has been introduced?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes
Michelle Bennett
