ACT PLUS AUTOMATED COAGULATION TIMER
SYSTEM
Precise, Reliable – The Trusted Standard
BLOOD DIAGNOSTICS AND CLOT DETECTION
In addition to running cardiopulmonary bypass, we know that you rely on accurate blood diagnostic results.
The ACT Plus® System combines a trusted standard in precise clot detection technology with state-of-the-art user features including data management and connectivity-ready capabilities. It is a microprocessor-controlled electromechanical coagulation instrument designed to determine coagulation endpoints in fresh and citrated whole blood samples. Clotting-time results are presented on the instrument’s Clot Time Display (CTD) and Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screens.
The ACT Plus System provides long-term data storage and retrieval, with access to previous patient and quality control test data. Test results are stored in the order in which they are performed. The ability to externally transfer or save data enhances the system’s versatility.
The ACT Plus System is portable and well suited for all point-of-care testing situations. It offers the reliability required in:
Cardiovascular and vascular surgery
ECMO
Cardiac catheterization laboratories
Critical care units
Hemodialysis units
MANAGE YOUR ACT PLUS SYSTEM DATA EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY
As part of our ongoing commitment to helping you manage your work efficiently and effectively, we offer the ACT Plus EDM external data manager to accompany the ACT Plus Automated Coagulation Timer System.
By combining this powerful software with the ACT Plus System, you will have access to the reports you’ll need to analyze test results and make informed decisions. This timesaving data management solution offers added convenience, reassurance and confidence—allowing you to stay focused on improving patient outcomes.
The ACT Plus EDM is a versatile Microsoft Access-based data management software application that runs on a PC and is designed to help you manage your patient, QC, instrument and user ID data. All aspects of Microsoft Access software required to run the application are included with the ACT Plus EDM.

Glide sheath
Product overview
Expanding trans-radial access to include more patients
- Glide sheath Slender is designed with a proprietary thin-wall technology where the outside diameter is reduced by one French size while the inner-diameter equivalent is maintained.
- Glide sheath Slender is coated with Terumo’s proprietary hydrophilic coating, allowing for smooth insertion and removal.
Features and Benefits

The proprietary thin-wall technology and Terumo M Coat hydrophilic coating
- Per the American Heart Association, dedicated radial sheaths with hydrophilic coating combined with smaller diameter sheaths and a tapered tip design may reduce risk of arterial spasm and radial occlusion1
- Featuring Terumo’s proprietary hydrophilic coating, the Glide sheath Slender Sheath is the only thin-wall radial sheath on the market to demonstrate superior and consistent performance in lubricity and durability over time
The Glide sheath Slender Sheath is the only thin-wall sheath that demonstrated best in class performance in all of the American Heart Association’s identified critical features that lead to reduced spasm.
THE POWER OF TERUMO GLIDE TECHNOLOGY™: LUBRICITY OVER TIMES
Hydrophilic coating is critical to procedural success, Physicians need to trust that their sheath will be just as lubricous at the end of case as it is at the beginning.
The graph below demonstrates the results of recent benchtop testing. The lower the value, the more lubricious the coating. The straighter the line, the more consistent, and reliable, the performance.
Glide sheath Slender Sheath outperformed the other competitive sheaths in both key features: lubricity and lubricity over time.

Unmatched Clinical Evidence
- A meta-analysis of 10 clinical papers, involving 3,821 patients, demonstrated that use of Glide sheath Slender Sheath is associated with high rates of procedural success and low rates in performance related issues.
- In studies measuring patient comfort, patients who underwent percutaneous trans-radial procedures with the Glide sheath Slender Sheath reported none to low amounts of pain.

RADIFOCUS REDIAL SHEATH
Providing you the best range of Terumo Radifocus Radial Introducer Sheath and Cordis Femoral Introducer Sheath with effective & timely delivery.
The radial artery access sheath is used to gain arterial access and facilitate the insertion of catheters or other equipment for diagnostic and vascular interventions.
- The Cordis AVANTI®+ Introducer is the pioneer of catheter sheath introducer technology. Featuring a patented SLIX Valve, the AVANTI®+ introducer provides smooth transitions, monitoring capabilities and exceptional performance for your procedural success, as well as
- A hexacuspid design that provides a balance between catheter maneuverability and hemostasis.
- A rotating suture collar that facilitates procedural flexibility. It stays in place and allows patient movement.
- A kink-resistant cannula design integrating a soft, flexible inner layer with a stiffer outer layer designed to increase bendability and support, and decrease kinking.
- Atraumatic tip transitions for both the sheath and the vessel dilator are uniquely tapered and manicured. This results in smooth insertions and helps to minimize damage upon entry.
As part of the circulatory system, the radial artery supplies blood from the heart to the forearm.
Radial sheaths had the smallest OD (1 Fr smaller) when compared to similar sized conventional sheaths. For instance, the OD of 4 Fr radial sheath (1.610 ± 0.006 mm) is essentially the same as the OD of the conventional 3 Fr (1.644 ± 0.016 mm) and 3.3 Fr (1.635 ± 0.005 mm) sheaths.
