Quality in the Coagulation Laboratory
Coagulation is a complex discipline that includes many variables. Different reagent composition including the type of phospholipids and activating agents, instability of samples as well as pre-analytical variables all contribute to outcomes. It is important to understand how these variables impact the quality of results reported out by the coagulation laboratory. Quality in the laboratory is not a given and can result in the misdiagnosis of a bleeding or thrombotic event.
This webinar will look at common practices in the coagulation laboratory and how these variables can impact quality. This session will also provide laboratories with practices that can help improve coagulation results and patient outcomes.
