Platelet aggregation can be measured using optical aggregation (light transmission aggregometry, LTA) as well as by impedance (Multiplate analyzer). The LTA (the gold standard method) can be influenced by many preanalytical variables.

Variables That Affect Results of PFA-100 in a Group of Healthy Blood Donors in the Slovak Population
Background: The platelet function analyzer (PFA-100) is a system analyzing platelet function determined for detection of the functional inherited and acquired platelet disorders, screening of von Willebrand disease (vWD) and recently also considered as ...

The pathophysiological background of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) has not been fully elucidated. Evidence suggests that abnormal platelet function and ineffective fibrinolysis may play a key role in the development of the disease.

Clinical Application and Evaluation of Preoperative Bleeding Tendency using Platelet Function Analyzer (PFA)-100. [PDF]
Routine preoperative tests such as BT/CT, PT/PTT and CBC, could not test abnormal hemostasis that take drugs and health functional food. We used platelet function analyzer (PFA®)-100, to evaluate preoperative bleeding tendencies.

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.

Effects of clopidogrel and prednisone on platelet function in healthy dogs
Background Glucocorticoids cause hypercoagulability, but it is unknown if they counteract clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects. Hypothesis/Objectives Determine the effects of clopidogrel and prednisone on platelet function. Animals Twenty‐four healthy dogs.

Platelet Functions During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation. Platelet–Leukocyte Aggregates Analyzed by Flow Cytometry as a Promising Tool to Monitor Platelet Activation [PDF]
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an extracorporeal circulation used to manage patients with severe circulatory or respiratory failure. It is associated with both high bleeding and thrombosis risks, mainly as a result of biomaterial/blood interface phenomena, high shear stress, and complex inflammatory response involving the activation of ...
