| Laboratory tools to identify acquired coagulation factor abnormalities Kristi Smock. |
Abstract
Specialized coagulation laboratories play a critical role in the diagnosis and management of patients with acquired bleeding disorders. In this setting the testing is often complex and requires close clinical correlation for accurate interpretation. Detailed understanding of testing methodologies is invaluable in the interpretation of difficult cases. This session will use a case-based format to highlight test result patterns, including diagonsis of the acquired disorder and potential effects of treatment, for patients with acquired bleeding disorders.
