The amount of UFH or LMWH is determined from the anti-FXa activity expressed by the [AT*Heparin] complex formed in plasma. ## Device Story Coamatic® Heparin is an in vitro diagnostic assay for measuring heparin activity in human citrated plasma. The device utilizes a synthetic chromogenic substrate and Factor Xa inactivation principle; heparin accelerates the inhibitory effect of antithrombin on coagulation proteases. The assay measures anti-FXa activity, which correlates to the concentration of UFH or LMWH. The test is performed on automated laboratory analyzers or microplate systems by clinical laboratory personnel. Results are used by healthcare providers to monitor heparin therapy. The device provides quantitative data to assist in clinical decision-making regarding antithrombotic drug management. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Comparative studies performed against IL Test™ Heparin on various platforms (Cobas Mira, Microplate, ACL 300, ACL Futura, MLA Electra, Sysmex 6000, AMAX, Hitachi 911/917) using patient samples treated with UFH and LMWH, as well as spiked normal/pooled plasmas. Correlation coefficients (r) ranged from 0.97 to 0.99. Precision data for the microplate method showed total %CVs ranging from 2.8% to 4.4% for UFH and LMWH concentrations of 0.4 and 0.7 IU/mL. ## Technological Characteristics In vitro diagnostic assay using synthetic chromogenic substrate and Factor Xa inactivation. Compatible with automated laboratory analyzers and microplate systems. Quantitative measurement of anti-FXa activity. ## Regulatory Identification A heparin assay is a device used to determine the level of the anticoagulant heparin in the patient's circulation. These assays are quantitative clotting time procedures using the effect of heparin on activated coagulation factor X (Stuart factor) or procedures based on the neutralization of heparin by protamine sulfate (a protein that neutralizes heparin). ## Predicate Devices - IL Test™ Heparin ([K980242](/device/K980242.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

The amount of UFH or LMWH is determined from the anti-FXa activity expressed by the [AT*Heparin] complex formed in plasma. Heparin is the most frequently used antithrombotic drug. The biological activity of this sulphated glycosaminoglycan resides in its ability to accelerate (up to 2000-fold) the inhibitory effect of antithrombin on coagulation proteases.
