Résumé
Coagulometer, known as blood coagulation analyzer, is a product that can provide accurate test results for medical diagnosis and treatment analysis by detecting a series of items closely related to thrombosis and hemostasis in coagulation reaction. On the basis of previous traditional methods, and with our deep understanding about the principles of hemagglutination detection, we propose a hemagglutination detection method by using the dual-magnetic circuit beads method. Then, the corresponding hemagglutination detection module is designed. The coagulation time of plasma can be measured by detecting the movement of the magnetic beads when the magnetic field intensity is appropriate. The activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT) of plasma is tested when the most suitable magnetic field intensity is found. The results preliminarily show that this blood coagulation test method is valid and the corresponding test module has a potential value in business.

Objective@#To investigate the consistency of plasma prothrombin time (PT) results detected by the STAGO STA-R Evolution and Mindray Precil C3510 automatic coagulation analyzers. @*Methods@#The PTs from 69 plasma samples were detected by the STA-R Evolution and Precil C3510 coagulation analyzers, respectively, and the obtained results were compared. Based on the CLSI EP9-A3 protocol, the ESD test was used to detect outliers, the scatter plot, difference plot, and frequency distribution plot were drawn, and the method comparison and bias evaluation were performed using the Passing-Bablok regression and Bland-Altman plot. @*Results@#The PTs (median \[P 25, P 75\]) detected by the STA-R Evolution and Precil C3510 analyzers were 19.00 (13.85, 25.65) s and 20.50 (13.83, 26.30) s, respectively, and there was no significant difference between them (P>0.05). No outliers were detected by the ESD test, and the variation of PTs (CV) was constant. There were no systematic, random and proportional differences in PT results from two coagulation analyzers. The bias between two coagulation analyzers was within the acceptable range (1/2 CLIA′88 TEa). The predicted bias of PT at each medical decision point was also within the acceptable range. @*Conclusion@#The results of PT detected by the Precil C3510 and STA-R Evolution coagulation analyzers are comparable, and the bias is within the acceptable range, which can meet the needs of clinical diagnosis and treatment.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To detect the anticoagulation and antiplatelet effects of different concentrations of puerarin, heparin sodium and tirofiban hydrochloride on the blood samples of healthy volunteers by Sonoclot coagulation and platelet function analyzer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Peripheral blood samples were extracted from 20 healthy volunteers, followed by adding different concentrations of puerarin, heparin sodium and tirofiban hydrochloride. Samples were detected for activated clotting time (ACT), clot rate (CR) and platelet function (PF) by Sonoclot coagulation and platelet function analyzer instrument.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>For puerarin and heparin sodium, the values of ACT gradually increased, and the values of CR and PF gradually decreased with increasing in drug concentration. There was a linear (or log linear) relationship between ACT, CR, PF value and drug concentration (P<0.01). Corresponding to each value, a regression equation was obtained. For tirofiban hydrochloride, the values of ACT and CR had no significant changes, while PF values gradually decreased with concentration increasing. There was also a linear relationship between PF values and concentrations of tirofiban hydrochloride (P<0.01). Under the same ACT values, the puerarin corresponding CR values (CR = e, P<2.2e-16) were always higher than the corresponding values (CR = e, P-value<2.2e-16) of heparin sodium. For high concentrations of puerarin (e.g. 3.8 mg/600 μL) and tirofiban hydrochloride (e.g. 0.8 μg/600 μL), PF values had no significant difference. However, PF values for high puerarin concentration had a larger variance.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Puerarin has similar anticoagulant and antiplatelet effects with the heparin sodium, and may have a lower hemorrhage risk than heparin sodium when obtained the same anticoagulation effect in the concentration range of this experiment. In addition, for high concentration, puerarin had the same antiplatelet function as tirofiban hydrochloride but with a larger individual variability.</p>

Objective: To investigate the detection ability of two reagents by automated coagulation analyzer ACL-TOP using immune turbidimetric method, and to determine the merits and demerits of them. Methods:Two reagents were compared in the study. We selected 532 cases of hospitalized patients in Anzhen Hospital, 388 cases of which were unstable angina, 60 cases were pulmonary thromboembolism, 70 cases were coronary atherosclerosis, 14 cases were abdominal aneurysm, and the rest were the patients with high blood pressure and coronary heart disease. The plasmas of all the patients were extracted, and D-dimer was detected on ACL-TOP by D-Dimer (referred to as reagent A) and D-DHS (referred to as reagent B). Results:The results of D-dimer increased in different degrees, and there are 88 cases of false positive cases. The case whose FDP and individual D-dimer of D-dimer simultaneous detection was elevating and clinical symptoms were disappeared was detected by the VIDAS instrument platform verification. There were significant differences between A and B. The detection result of reagent A was [1594.15±2286.18], and reagent B was [912.97±1814.06]. There were significant differences between them (t=3.654, P<0.05). In addition, the consistency of the two reagents was poor (r=0.419, P<0.05). Conclusion:Comparing two reagents to detect D-dimer quantitatively by automated coagulation analyzer ACL-TOP, D-DHS owns greater ability to exclude false-positive results, so does the ability of anti-interference with jaundice, hemolysis and chylemia.

Background: Plasma interference is a problem for coagulation analyzers using a photo-optical detection method. Sysmex® CS-2100i is a fully-automated coagulation analyzer which has been developed to reduce this problem. Objective: To evaluate the influence of interferences on prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and fibrinogen analyzed by Sysmex® CS-2100i. The performance of this analyzer was also assessed in this study. Methods: Pooled plasma samples spiked with interfering substances including hemoglobin, bilirubin and lipid were used in the interference study. Real patients’ samples with these interferences were also tested. Control materials and pooled samples were used for precision, comparison, and carryover studies. Results: The PT, APTT, and fibrinogen could be analyzed in both plasma samples with interference added and real abnormal patients’ plasma samples. The deviation of PT, APTT, and fibrinogen levels was not obvious, except for an upward trend of fibrinogen level with increased hemoglobin. The highest %CV of PT, APTT, and fibrinogen were 1.24, 3.18, and 4.31, respectively for within-run and 2.32, 2.11, and 6.06, respectively for between-run precision analysis. The correlation coefficients of PT, APTT, and fibrinogen between Sysmex® CS-2100i and Sysmex® CA-1500 were 0.99, 0.99, and 0.98 with intra-class correlation coefficients of 0.99, 0.99, and 0.98 respectively. No significant carryover of specimen was observed. Conclusion: Sysmex® CS-2100i could analyze both samples with artificial interfering substance added and real abnormal patients’ samples. This machine also had an acceptable performance by our evaluation.
Résumé
BACKGROUND: Newly developed ACL9000 automatic coagulation analyzer was evaluated in measurement of prothrombin time(PT), activated partial thromboplastin time(aPTT) and fibrinogen. METHODS: We studied precision including withtin-run and between-day precision. Normal reference ranges for PT, aPTT and fibrinogen were obtained in 60 healthy normal controls. The heparin sensitivity for aPTT and heparin interference for PT and fibrinogen were also determined. Lastly ACL9000 was compared with another coagulation analyzer, MLA Electra 1600. RESULTS: Precision of PT, aPTT and fibrinogen were acceptable, mostly. The normal reference ranges were as followings: 10.7-12.4 sec for PT, 28.7-40.8 sec for aPTT and 165-468 mg/dL for fibrinogen. The ranges of aPTT were from 49.8 sec to 84.7 sec in therapeutic heparin concentration(0.2-0.4 IU/mL) and heparin interfered determination of PT and fibrinogen in high concentrations. The comparability between ACL9000 and MLA Electra 1600 was good in determinations of PT and fibrinogen but not in determination of aPTT. CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that the performance of ACL9000 was acceptable and ACL9000 would be a useful analyzer for routine coagulation tests.
