Monitoring unfractionated heparin therapy. 4 hour-stability of anti-Xa activity in unspun citrated tubes
Abstract
Current guidelines recommend performing laboratory tests aimed at monitoring unfractionated heparin (UFH) treatments within a delay not exceeding 1 to 2 h(s) after sampling when blood is collected into citrated tubes. As such a short delay could be an issue, we evaluated the potential impact of longer delays. For that purpose, two citrated tubes were obtained from patients on UFH: one was centrifuged and tested for anti-Xa activity and aPTT...
