Validity of the British system for anticoagulant control using the national reagent

Alderson, M. R.

RESUMO

The national system for anticoagulant control depends on drawing the best line obtained by visual comparison of the points representing corresponding prothrombin ratios with the British comparative thromboplastin in the local reagent. This line is then used to correct subsequent values using the local laboratory method of corresponding values in terms of the British comparative thromboplastin.
