Result Turnaround Time
4 - 11 days
Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.
Test Includes
α2-Antiplasmin; D-dimer, quantitative (automated); euglobulin lysis time; fibrin degradation products; plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 activity; plasminogen activity; tissue plasminogen activator antigen
Specimen Requirements
Specimen
Plasma, frozen
Volume
Four 2-mL platelet-poor, frozen tubes
Container
Blue-top (sodium citrate) tubes
Collection Instructions
Plasma must be separated from cells within 45 minutes of venipuncture and centrifuged a second time before transferring to plastic transport tubes. Freeze within two hours and keep frozen until testing is performed. To avoid delays in turnaround time when requesting multiple tests on frozen samples, please submit separate frozen specimens for each test requested.
Storage Instructions
Freeze
Causes for Rejection
Noncitrated plasma; gross hemolysis; presence of fibrin; clotted plasma
