The Role of Platelet Function Analyzer Testing in Cardiac Surgery Transfusion Management. [PDF]
<b>Background: </b>Identifying high-risk patients for transfusion after cardiac operations would alter postoperative management. The aim of this study was to investigate closure time (CT) measured by platelet function analyzer (PFA) for prediction of bleeding and transfusions.

Evaluation of platelet function in dogs with cardiac disease using the PFA‐100 platelet function analyzer [PDF]
Background:Cardiac disease has the potential to alter platelet function in dogs. Evaluation of platelet function using the PFA‐100 analyzer in dogs of multiple breeds and with a broad range of cardiac conditions would help clarify the effect of cardiac disease on platelets.Objectives:The objective of this study was to assess differences in closure time

Assessment of platelet function on the routine coagulation analyzer Sysmex CS-2000i
Background: Light transmission aggregometry (LTA) is considered as the gold standard for testing platelet function in the setting of both platelet disorders suspicion and response to antiplatelet therapy evaluation.

Comprehensive Approach to Developing Baseline Reference Ranges for Platelet Function
Background. Thrombocytopathies are topical issues of pediatrics. Platelet dysfunction clinically manifests as thrombotic and hemorrhagic events of various severity and location. Platelet function can be evaluated via aggregatometry.

The Platelet Function Analyzer (PFA-100) as a Screening Tool in Neurosurgery. [PDF]
We investigated whether the inclusion of the PFA-100 in the preoperative screening of neurosurgical patients might reduce perioperative bleeding complications. Patients with intracranial space-occupying lesions who were scheduled for neurosurgery underwent routine preoperative PFA-100 testing.

The bleeding diathesis in patients with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia is not due to impaired platelet function [PDF]
Background Patients with the rare disease; Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) often bleed from telangiectatic lesions in mucosal surfaces. Studies suggest that impaired platelet function may also play a role in their bleeding tendency.

Background:There is currently no simple analytical tool for the evaluation of hypercoagulability in cats. The Platelet Function Analyzer‐100®(PFA‐100; Dade Behring Inc., Deerfield, IL, USA) is a bench‐top machine that evaluates platelet function by measuring closure time (CT) in citrated whole blood under high shear conditions.

Platelet function analyzer (PFA)‐100®closure time in the evaluation of platelet disorders and platelet function: reply to a rebuttal [PDF]
Background: Closure time (CT), measured by platelet function analyzer (PFA-100((R))) device, is now available to the clinical laboratory as a possible alternative or supplement to the bleeding time test.
