The Clinical Relevance of Platelet Function Tests
British Journal of Haematology, 1972Summary.The increasingly used tests of platelet function have been briefly reviewed and an attempt has been made to correlate the result of these tests with their clinical significance. It may be said that the platelet count and bleeding time are still the most important information for the clinician.

The Platelet Function Profile: A New Format for Recording Platelet Function Tests
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1979A platelet function profile that provides a concise record of platelet function tests has been developed. This format can be easily modified to meet local requirements or to include hematologic tests unique to each laboratory.

Platelet Function Testing: Quality Assurance
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2007Platelet function tests are widely used for the diagnosis of platelet disorders. In recent years there has been increasing interest in the use of platelet function tests to monitor antiplatelet drug therapy. Quality assurance is important to optimize the performance of laboratory assays but it has not been widely applied to platelet function tests ...

Platelet function testing in pediatric patients
Expert Review of Hematology, 2017Platelets play a key role in primary hemostasis and are also intricately linked to secondary hemostasis. Investigation of platelet function in children, especially in neonates, is seriously challenged by the volumes required to perform the majority of platelet function tests and due to the lack of standardization of these tests for use in children ...

Point-of-Care Platelet Function Testing
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2007Cardiopulmonary bypass has unpredictably deleterious effects on platelet function. Patients with cardiovascular disease have treatments aimed at reducing platelet aggregation and are at risk of excessive bleeding during surgery. Transfusion of blood products, particularly platelets, probably causes increased morbidity and mortality.

The clinical impact of platelet function testing
Thrombosis Research, 1994In contrast to hereditary platelet function defects acquired abnormalities of platelet function are very common. Platelet dysfunction, as defined by ex vivo tests or the bleeding time test, is observed after the intake of many drugs and common foods, as well as in pathological conditions such as hematological, renal or hepatic diseases, extracorporeal ...

Platelet function testing in cardiac surgery
Transfusion Medicine, 2016SUMMARYBleeding in cardiac surgery is known to cause increased morbidity and mortality. The rise in the use of anti‐platelet medication has led to an increase in the number of patients presenting for cardiac surgery with platelet dysfunction, who are at a heightened risk of bleeding.

Platelet function testing in clinical diagnostics
Hämostaseologie, 2011SummaryAlthough the utility of platelet function testing is still under debate, the necessity to inhibit platelets in patients suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease is undoubted and well proven. The wide variety of available platelet function tests often using different methodologies, the apparent lack of standardization, and ...
