    The ROTEM sigma thromboelastometry system is a fully integrated and automated in vitro diagnostic system designed to monitor and analyze a patient's coagulation status by measuring the viscoelastic properties of a 3.2% citrated venous or arterial whole blood sample. The ROTEM sigma system is indicated for use with adult patients 21 years and older where a semi-quantitative evaluation of their blood coagulation properties is desired, in the point of care and laboratory settings. Coagulation evaluations on the ROTEM sigma instrument, together with the ROTEM sigma complete + hep cartridge, are used to assess peri-operative hemorrhage and/or thrombosis in cardiovascular surgery and liver transplantation. The single use, multichannel cartridge ROTEM sigma complete + hep contains the following assays: INTEM C is a semi-quantitative assay used to monitor coagulation via the intrinsic pathway in citrated whole blood samples. EXTEM C is a semi-quantitative assay used to monitor coagulation via the extrinsic pathway in citrated whole blood samples. FIBTEM C is a semi-quantitative assay used to monitor coagulation via the extrinsic pathway in citrated whole blood samples, after blocking platelet contribution to clot firmness. HEPTEM C is a semi-quantitative assay used to monitor coagulation via the intrinsic pathway in citrated whole blood samples, after inactivating heparin. Results from the ROTEM sigma should not be the sole basis for a patient diagnosis; ROTEM sigma results should be considered along with a clinical assessment of the patient's condition and other laboratory tests. For in vitro Diagnostic Use. For professional use only.
    Device Description
    The ROTEM sigma is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) whole blood hemostasis system intended for use in the evaluation of coagulopathies in Point of Care (POC) or laboratory settings. It uses rotational thromboelastometry to provide semiquantitative information about the coagulation state of a blood sample. The ROTEM sigma system records the kinetic changes in a sample of 3.2% citrated whole blood during clot formation, as well as when the sample clot retracts and/or lyses. Several parameters are measured and reported for this purpose. The graphical presentation reflects the various physiological results, which describe the interaction between coagulation factors and inhibitors, fibrinogen, platelets, and the fibrinolysis system. Additionally, the effect of certain drugs influencing hemostasis, in particular some anticoagulants (e.g. heparin), can be detected. The ROTEM sigma technology uses rotational thromboelastometry that is based on a fixed cylindrical cup and an oscillating vertical axis. The axis is supported by a high precision ball bearing and oscillates through an angle of 4.75°. The oscillation of the axis is driven by a motor that is connected to the axis via a spring. For the measurement, the channel's measurement axis engages the plastic pin in the cup of the disposable heated cartridge holding the blood sample. The oscillation is detected optically via a mirror plate at the upper end of the axis, which reflects the light from a diode light source onto a light sensitive sensor. If no clotting takes place, the pin movement is not restricted. As a clot forms and attaches itself between the pin and cup surfaces, the pin movement becomes increasingly restricted. The result is a balance between the spring tension and the tension of the clot. As the clot becomes firmer, the oscillation amplitude of the axis is reduced. The ROTEM sigma assays are based on the principle of either * intrinsic coagulation activation with or without the presence of heparin, or * extrinsic coagulation activation with or without the presence of platelet inhibitors.

    The EXTEM assay is a semi-quantitative in vitro diagnostic assay on the ROTEM® delta Thromboelastometry System to monitor the coagulation process via the extrinsic pathway in citrated whole blood specimens. Clotting characteristics are described by the functional parameters Clotting Time (CT), Speed of Clot Formation (CFT and alpha angle), Clot Firmness (A20/MCF) and Clot Lysis (LOT, ML, LI(x)). Speed of clot formation time (CFT and alpha) is complementary parameter and should be used only in conjunction with the main parameters Clotting time (CT) and Clot Firmness (A20/MCF). The indication for ROTEM® delta use is in adult patients where an evaluation of their blood coagulation properties is desired. Coagulation evaluations with the ROTEM® delta system are commonly used to assess clinical conditions in organ transplantation, cardiovascular surgery, cardiology procedures and trauma to assess post-operative hemorrhage and / or thrombosis. The FIBTEM assay is a semi-quantitative in vitro diagnostic assay on the ROTEM® delta Thromboelastometry System to monitor the clot firmness of a citrated whole blood specimens after blocking platelet contribution to the clot firmness The fib-TEM® reagent is always used in conjunction with ex-TEM® reagent. Clotting characteristics are described by the functional parameter Clot Firmness (A20/MCF).

Coagulation evaluations with the ROTEM® delta system are commonly used to assess clinical conditions in organ transplantation, cardiovascular surgery, cardiology procedures and trauma to assess post-operative hemorrhage and / or thrombosis. The APTEM assay is a semi-quantitative in vitro diagnostic assay on the ROTEM® delta Thromboelastometry System to monitor the clot firmness of a citrated whole blood specimens after blocking hyperfibrinolysis by aprotinin. The ap-TEM® reagent is always used in conjunction with ex-TEM® reagent.

    Device Description
    The ROTEM® delta Thromboelastometry System consists of a fourcolumn instrument (with integrated computer module, computer controlled electronic pipette, software), system reagents (in-TEM®, hep-TEM®, star-TEM®, ex-TEM®, fib-TEM® and ap-TEM®, quality controls (ROTROL N, ROTROL P) and measurement cells (Cup and Pin pro). The blood sample is filled into a cylindrical cup. A pin oscillates permanently while it is immersed in the blood holding cup. The motion of the pin is detected by an optical detection system. Data are processed and analyzed by a computer with special software. If no clotting takes place, the movement of the pin is not obstructed. When a clot forms and attaches itself to the pin and cup surfaces, the movement is obstructed. As the clot becomes firmer, the rotational movement of the pin is reduced. The rotational movement of the pin is converted into amplitude with the following definitions applying to the thromboelastogram (TEM): Amplitude of 0 mm means unobstructed oscillation, while amplitude of 100 mm can be regarded as infinite firmness and blocking of the pin by the clot. The TEM amplitude is a measure of the clot firmness.
