Method |
"Thrombelastography (TEG) enables a global assessment
of hemostatic function to be obtained from a single blood
sample, documenting the interaction of platelets with the protein
coagulation cascade from the time of the initial platelet-fibrin
interaction, through platelet aggregation, clot strengthening, and
fibrin cross-linkage to eventual clot lysis in a global and functional
coagulation test." |
Comments |
"Abbreviations: SP, split point, the distance from
recording start to the first sign of divergence. R, reaction time, the
interval between recording start and the time at which the amplitude
of the TEG reaches 2 mm it represents the rate of thromboplastin
generation and reflects the function of the intrinsic coagulation
system K, kinetic time, the time from R to a level of clot
firmness of 20 mm. The coagulation time (R+K) reflects the
function of the intrinsic system, platelets and fibrinogen MA,
maximum amplitude, represents the largest amplitude reached and
is a function of the elasticity of the blood clot." |
