Prolonged Prothrombin Time and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time Due to Underfilled Specimen Tubes With 109 mmol/L (3.2%) Citrate Anticoagulant

Article 1998 EN Bronze

Underfilling of specimen tubes containing 129 mmol/L (3.8%) buffered citrate prolongs prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) values. We studied this phenomenon by using 109 mmol/L (3.2%) buffered citrate as the anticoagulant, anticipating some increase in tolerance to underfilling. Venous blood drawn from 12 healthy subjects and 30 patients receiving long-term oral…
