Coagulation testing in the perioperative period
Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2014Perioperative coagulation management is a complex task that has a significant impact on the perioperative journey of patients. Anaesthesia providers play a critical role in the decision-making on transfusion and/or haemostatic therapy in the surgical ...

Perioperative point of care coagulation testing. [PDF]
Dtsch Arztebl Int, 2012BACKGROUND Conventional laboratory tests of blood coagulation yield only partial diagnostic information. "Point of care" (POC) devices are increasingly being used at the bedside perioperatively for rapid, detailed testing of hemostatic function and for ...

Use of Citrated Whole Blood for Point-of-Care Viscoelastic Coagulation Testing in Dogs [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022BackgroundA new, portable bedside coagulation monitor (VCM Vet) has provided a user-friendly, cartridge-based method to perform viscoelastic testing. However, the use of native whole blood limits the time to analyze the sample to minutes.

Ecarin based coagulation testing [PDF]
American Journal of Hematology, 2020AbstractEcarin is derived from venom of Echis carinatus, and will activate prothrombin into meizothrombin which will then cleave fibrinogen to result in clot formation. Ecarin based testing has been described for decades, but these assays were typically restricted to reference or speciality coagulation laboratories.

Coagulation Testing in the Core Laboratory [PDF]
Laboratory Medicine, 2017Primary hemostasis begins with endothelial injury. VWF, produced by endothelial cells, binds to platelets and links them to subendothelial collagen. Platelet-derived ADP and thromboxane activate non-adhered platelets via their GPIIb/IIIa receptors, allowing these platelets to participate in platelet aggregation.

REDucing Unnecessary Coagulation Testing in the Emergency Department (REDUCED). [PDF]
BMJ Qual Improv Rep, 2017The PT/INR (prothrombin time/international normalized ratio) and aPTT (activated partial thromboplastin time) were tests developed in the early 20th century for specific and unique indications. Despite this, they are often ordered together routinely. The

Survival probability of a diffusing test particle in a system of coagulating and annihilating random walkers [PDF]
Physical Review E, Vol 70, 036111 (2004), 2004We calculate the survival probability of a diffusing test particle in an environment of diffusing particles that undergo coagulation at rate lambda_c and annihilation at rate lambda_a. The test particle dies at rate lambda' on coming into contact with the other particles. The survival probability decays algebraically with time as t^{-theta}.
