What is the TEG
6s system?
The TEG Thrombelastograph Coagulation Analyzer TEG 6s Series system
consists of the following components:
TEG 6s analyzer
Disposable cartridges with preloaded dried reagents
Service-Maintenance-Settings (SMS) software interface
The TEG analyzer monitors the harmonic motion of a pendant drop of blood in
response to external vibration. As the sample transitions from a liquid state to
a gel-like state during clotting, the modulus of elasticity and resonant frequency
increase. The analyzer measures these variations in resonant frequency
during clotting and lysis and displays the results on a touchscreen display.
Disposable cartridges are used for processing whole blood samples. Blood is
delivered by transfer pipette or syringe to a small port in the cartridge. Once a
sample has been added to the cartridge and testing has begun, the sample is
inaccessible to the user. The cartridges contain all necessary reagents for
performing an assay.
The TEG analyzer has two modes of operation: (1) Stand-alone, and (2)
computer-controlled through the network interface. Service-Maintenance-
Settings (SMS) software provides the interface for an administrator or qualified
service technician to change configuration settings, update, backup, and
restore software and data files, and manage analyzer calibration parameters.
For more information about the SMS software, consult the
