2. Coagulation testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation_testing

   Blood clotting tests are the tests used for diagnostics of the hemostasis system. Coagulometer is the medical laboratory analyzer used for testing of the hemostasis system. Modern coagulometers realize different methods of activation and observation of development of blood clots in blood or in blood plasma. [citation needed]

3. Activated clotting time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activated_clotting_time

   Activated clotting time (ACT), also known as activated coagulation time, is a test of coagulation. [1] [2]The ACT test can be used to monitor anticoagulation effects, such as from high-dose heparin before, during, and shortly after procedures that require intense anticoagulant administration, such as cardiac bypass, interventional cardiology, thrombolysis, extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation ...

4. Calibrated automated thrombogram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibrated_automated...

   The calibrated automated thrombogram (CAT or CT) is a thrombin generation assay (TGA) and global coagulation assay (GCA) which can be used as a coagulation test to assess thrombotic risk. [1] [2] It is the most widely used TGA. [3] The CAT is a semi-automated test performed in a 96-well plate and requires specialized technologists to be ...

5. Clotting time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clotting_time

   Clotting time is a general term for the time required for a sample of blood to form a clot, or, in medical terms, coagulate.The term "clotting time" is often used when referring to tests such as the prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT or PTT), activated clotting time (ACT), thrombin time (TT), or Reptilase time.

6. Thrombin generation assay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombin_generation_assay

   A thrombin generation assay (TGA) or thrombin generation test (TGT) is a global coagulation assay (GCA) and type of coagulation test which can be used to assess coagulation and thrombotic risk. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is based on the potential of a plasma to generate thrombin over time, following activation of coagulation via addition of ...

7. Prothrombin time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prothrombin_time

   A similar form of testing is used by people with diabetes for monitoring blood sugar levels, which is easily taught and routinely practiced. [citation needed] Local policy determines whether the patient or a coagulation specialist (pharmacist, nurse, general practitioner or hospital doctor) interprets the result and determines the dose of ...
