Additional information on error
E-406
Power the meter off and remove the test strip. Repeat the
measurement using a new test strip and blood taken from
a new puncture site at the tip of another finger. Do not
touch or remove the test strip when a test is in progress.
Note on error E-406: The CoaguChek PT Test strip may
be used for patients under a combination therapy of oral
anticoagulants plus heparin injections. For maximum
heparin concentrations which do not interfere with the
test, refer to the package insert. Under no circumstances,
however, should heparinized capillary tubes be used for
sample application. If capillary tubes are used, use only
the dedicated CoaguChek capillary tubes. Be sure to
apply the blood drop to the test strip within 15 seconds
of lancing the fingertip. In rare cases, patients with
abnormal or unusually long clotting times may receive an
“E-406” message on the meter display. If this error mes-
sage appears again when the test is repeated, the result
must be checked using another method.
For further information on the measuring range of the
parameter refer to the respective package insert.
