                              • • ↑  DD indicates clotting activity  “normal” DD would rule out the presence of any  significant clot, ie …   • Pulmonary embolus  • DVT    **Requires a highly sensitive assay** 
                              1. Mixing Studies

                                Annotations:

                                • Use: Is a prolongation due to factor deficiency or  inhibitor?  • Basis: 50% of any factor is sufficient for normal clotting  • Procedure: Mix equal amounts of normal and patient  plasma repeat test  • Interpretation:   – If the PT/PTT corrects into the normal range than the  prolongation was due to a factor deficiency  – If not, the prolongation is due to an inhibitor in the patient’s  plasma that is interfering with clot formation (factor specific  antibody, lupus anticoagulant, heparin)

                                  • Evaluates the intrinsic pathway  • All elements involved are intrinsic to the  circulation … ie, no TF  • Used for monitoring of unfractionated heparin Specimen collected in citrate to remove Ca++  • Patient’s platelets removed by centrifugation  • Silica is added to the specimen along with  Ca++ and phospholipids previously removed …  t0  – Phospholipids ‐ TF = partial thromboplastin

                                    • • Evaluates the extrinsic pathway   • Initiated by TF which is extrinsic to the  circulation  • Specimen collected in citrate to remove Ca++  • Patient’s platelets removed by centrifugation  • TF is added to the specimen along with Ca++  and phospholipids previously removed … t0  – Phospholipids + TF = thromboplastin

                                      Annotations:

                                      • • TF reagents are variably thrombogenic  • INR was devised to standardize the PT results across labs   • Developed to facilitate warfarin management  – Your patient returns to Connecticut from winter in Florida  • Each batch of manufactured TF is assigned an ISI (International  Sensitivity Index)  • ISI value indicates how the batch of TF compares to an  internationally standardized sample  • INR = an equation you don’t need to know  • Normal INR ≈ 1; typical therapeutic INR ≈ 2‐3  – The average INR of FFP (fresh frozen plasma) is 1.5
