A prospective cohort study of light transmission platelet aggregometry for bleeding disorders: Is testing native platelet-rich plasma non-inferior to testing platelet count adjusted samples?

Abstract

Light transmission platelet aggregometry (LTA) is important to diagnose bleeding disorders. Experts recommend testing LTA with native (N) rather than platelet count adjusted (A) platelet-rich plasma (PRP), although it is unclear if this provides non-inferior, or superior, detection of bleeding disorders. Our goal was to determine if LTA with NPRP is non-inferior to LTA with APRP for bleeding disorder assessments. A prospective cohort of …
