METHOD FOR THE DIFFERENTIATION OF FACTOR XIII DEFICIENCY STATES IN RELATION TO FIBRINOGEN DEFICIENCY STATES USING THROMBELASTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the determinationof a factor XIII deficiency, and a method for thedetermination of a fibrinogen deficiency and a methodfor differentiation between a factor XIII deficiencyand a fibrinogen deficiency using thrombelastographictechniques. On the basis of the evaluation of thethrombelastographic parameters, a rapid and a selectivesubstitution of factor XIII and/or of fibrinogen indeficiency states is possible.
