Performing a Test
134
The hourglass icon spins until the sample has
been detected and the test begins. The time
remaining for the test is displayed.
Measurement time:
The time needed to run a test depends on the
test parameter (refer to package insert for
details). Typically, 8 to 12 minutes are
required.
Do not add more blood. Do not touch the test strip until the result is displayed.
For Troponin T only:
As soon as the meter detects a signal (this
may take a few minutes), a qualitative
message (TnT Elevated) appears under the
hourglass icon (see illustration).
The final quantitative result is displayed when
the test is completed. Decisions on further
treatment of the patient should be based on
the final result only. Refer to the Roche
CARDIAC T Quantitative or Roche CARDIAC
POC Troponin T package insert for more
details.
