Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine establishment of a global assay of overall haemostasis potential: coagulation cascade in platelet-poor plasma is triggered by adding a minimal dose of recombinant tissue factor together with purified phospholipids and calcium; fibrinolysis is initiated by adding recombinant tPA in a concentration similar to what can be obtained during thrombolysis. Numerical differentials of optical densities reflecting rates of fibrin formation and degradation are calculated, and the Coagulation Profile (Cp) and the Fibrinolysis Profile (Fp) are determined. The combined effect of these counteractive systems is expressed as a ratio of Cp to Fp, called the Overall Haemostasis Index Homo sapiens
