Abstract excerpt
We compared the sensitivity and specificity of a tissue factor-based assay (FVR) with the addition of a phospholipid/silica preparation, to the commercially available aPTT-based method, APCR (CoatestTM), and a modified aPTT-based method (APCM) which utilized factor V-depleted plasma, for the detection of the factor V Leiden mutation. A total of 110 patients were included in this study. This included 32 patients...
