pubmed:abstractText
An abnormality of the optical transmission waveform obtained during measurement of the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) has been described in association with overt disseminated intravascular coagulation. This abnormality, a biphasic waveform, is caused by the in vitro formation of Ca2+-induced complexes between very low density lipoprotein and C-reactive protein. We have evaluated the diagnostic utility of aPTT waveform analysis for identifying patients with overt disseminated intravascular coagulation and sepsis.
