In about two minutes, monitor Platelet Count and real Platelet Aggregation or Inhibition at the point of care using traditional ADP, collagen or the new Arachidonic acid agonists. All that's needed is an impedance cellcounter and Plateletworks.

Platelet Aggregation
Platelet Inhibition
Platelet Count
CBC

By directly monitoring the platelet's ability to form an aggregate, it's a direct measurement of the platelet's ability to contribute to a thrombus. Plateletworks can be used to monitor all mechanisms which effect platelet aggregation:

Physiological conditions such as fibrinolytic damage to glycoprotein la

Aspirin and ADP inhibitors (clopidogrel, ticlopene)

Antifibrinolytics

Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (abciximab, eptifibatide, tirofiban)

New Arachadonic Acid agonist is the only screening assay suitable for patients on both clopidogrel and aspirin

Plateletworks is a simple, yet effective procedure.
Efficient pre-surgical screen
Monitor anti-platelet therapies
Determine best use of transfusion resources
Uses traditional agonists

No specialized training or equipment
Use whole blood at the point of care
