Platelet Mapping ADP/AA

Test Summary

The TEG 6S instrument with cartridge utilizes a whole blood sample to analyze the process of clot formation and lysis. The results are displayed on a real time graphical tracing that reflects the hemostasis profile of clot formation and fibrinolysis. Platelets are exposed to ADP and Arachodonic acid agonists.
