The purpose of the present study was to compare the results obtained with a human recombinant thromboplastin (Innovin, Baxter) (IN) and a high-sensitivity rabbit brain reagent (Thromboplastin IS, Baxter) (IS), on the performance of prothrombin time (PT) test and the functional assay of factors included in the extrinsic coagulation system, in order to establish possible differences on imprecision, diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity to the oral anticoagulant defect, between the two products.
