Is lupus anticoagulant testing with dilute Russell’s viper venom clotting times reliable in the presence of inflammation? [PDF]
Research and Practice in Thrombosis and HaemostasisBackground: Testing for lupus anticoagulant (LA) is not recommended in case of inflammation as C-reactive protein (CRP) can interfere in vitro with the phospholipids present in the activated partial thromboplastin time test used to detect an LA. However,
