Coagulometers
Deviceinformed.com is a website which presents leading medical devices and instruments from globally acclaimed suppliers and manufacturers. This category contains information about the coagulometers for laboratory medicine.
A blood coagulometer is an analyzer used in laboratory medicine for diagnostics of the hemostasis system. Coagulation efficiency of blood, diagnoses of bleeding disorders such as hemophilia, or tests of patients who are taking anticoagulant medicines such as aspirin, heparin, or warfarin can be done using these devices. These modern devices can recognise activation and observation of development of blood clots in blood or in blood plasma. The tool can also prevent unnecessary blood transfusions by reliably predicting whether blood product supplementation is needed.
The majority of testing the hemostasis system methods are appropriate to identify mistakes or defects in one of the hemostasis components. The thrombosis prediction is the main difficulty in the actual hemostasis system diagnosis, as a patient’s prethrombotic state can be very sensitive and that gives not accurate test results.
Blood coagulation system tests can be divided into two groups: global tests and local tests.
1. Global tests. They provide a necessary picture of alterations of the coagulation system, where can be seen some defects that need treatment. Tests define the results of the whole clotting cascade work. These tests can help to diagnose the general condition of the blood coagulation system, intensities of pathologies if there are some, and to record all present influences.
2. Local tests. They are important in order to find specific locations of pathologies and to identify the accuracy of the coagulation factor. These tests can be done in platelet poor/free plasma, in platelet rich plasma, or in whole blood. According to different types of tests, the results’ interpretations can vary due to conditions of blood storage.
