Abstract Procedure for the Determination of Fibrinogen in Plasma; Approved Guideline\u2014Second Edition (NCCLS document H30-A2) is a performance guideline for laboratory and\/or clinical healthcare professionals responsible for the routine performance of fibrinogen assays. This guideline describes a technique, based on the method described by Clauss,1 that is practical, precise, and widely used in the clinical laboratory. Preanalytical and analytical factors and conditions that may alter results are discussed. NCCLS. Procedure for the Determination of Fibrinogen in Plasma; Approved Guideline\u2014Second Edition. NCCLS document H30-A2 (ISBN 1-56238-439-2). NCCLS, 940 West Valley Road, Suite 1400, Wayne, Pennsylvania 19087-1898 USA, 2001.
\nScope H30-A2 contains guidelines for the collection, transportation, handling, and storage of blood specimens or plasma samples and general guidelines for performing the fibrinogen assay by the Clauss method.1 It is primarily directed toward laboratory and\/or clinical personnel responsible for obtaining and processing blood specimens, performing the fibrinogen assay and quality control procedures, and reporting fibrinogen assay results. It is also intended as a guide for manufacturers of the reagents and instruments. The guideline does not cover prothrombin-time (PT)-derived fibrinogen determination which can be performed using various automated coagulation instruments.14<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1955,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[26],"product_tag":[],"yoast_head":"\n
