Default INR Machine

My husband used a machine by Alere. It too seemed to work well. Unfortunately, we were not aware that he was getting false readings. The issue was not the machine. It was the strips. My husband has APS ( antiphosipholipid syndrome). His blood clots too quickly. The strips that are used on all the different machines have antiphosipholipids on them, there fore his readings were skewed. So, unless you have APS, I would thing any brand of machine will work just fine and save you lots of running back and forth to the clinic.
