LOINC code96692-9
namePlatelet-induced clot retraction.glass bead induced in Blood by Microviscometry
descriptionStrength of clot retraction by microviscometry is considered a measure of platelet function, as platelets are required for clot retraction. Some instruments report this value as a quantitative number ranging from 0 to 5, where 0 indicates no platelet function and 5 indicates strong platelet function.
statusACTIVE
