Experience on the Thrombotest as for the Control of the Anticoagulant Therapy

Abstract

We experienced the thrombotest as for the control of the anticoagulant therapy, and the conclusion of our studies are as follows:
1) This method is simple and easy to do and is sensitive enough to find out the changes of the coagulation activity of the adsorbable factors both in the intrinsic and extrinsic systems.
2) It needs only a few equipments and the test can be done at the patient's bedside using small amount of capillary blood.
5) The test should be done daily during the first week of medication and once a week thereafter.
