TriniCLOT PT Excel S 6 mlTriniCLOT PT Excel S is a tissue thromboplastin reagent (rabbit brain) for use in the determination of Prothrombin Time (PT) tests. The prothrombin time test is used predominantly as a presurgical screen to detect potential bleeding problems. An abnormal or extended PT test is usually indicative of a decreased level of one or more of the factors in the extrinsic or common path of blood coagulation. This condition could be caused by hereditary coagulation disorders, vitamin K deficiency, liver disease, or drug administration. The PT is also the most common aboratory assay used to monitor oral anticoagulant therapy since it is sensitive to Factors II, VII, and X.The PT may be used to perform factor assays for the extrinsic system (i.e. Factors II, V, VII, X). The PT is not sensitive to deficiencies in the intrinsic coagulation system (Factors VIII, IX, XI, and XII) or platelet dysfunctions, nor can it be used to monitor heparin therapy. An Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) determination is recommended for monitoring heparin therapy, and a bleeding time test is recommended for identifying platelet dysfunctions. |
