  • Notes supplémentaires dans les données
    Comparison with previous value is not recommended as haemostatic parameters vary over time and the results at the time point of the past measurement may not reflect the current status of the patient. Each laboratory should establish its own reference ranges or verify them whenever one or more of the variables mentioned above are changed. The affected lots respond more sensitively, presenting 20% ​​longer TT results. This will lead to an increase in the rate of results above the reference range if not adjusted. Therefore, adjustment of the laboratory specific reference ranges is recommended when switching to a new batch of reagent according to the Thrombin Time Application Sheet with BC Thrombin if it is used as a screening test for inhibition of thrombin. If affected batches of the BC Thrombin kit are used to control fibrinolytic therapy and / or levels of heparin and thrombin inhibitors, ranges or therapeutic ranges should be adjusted accordingly.
