Towards Improved Diagnostics for Suspected Platelet Function Disorders

December 1, 2023 updated by: Region Stockholm
This study aims to improve platelet function testing during bleeding investigations. To this end, the study will evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of novel platelet function tests in patients with confirmed or suspected platelet function disorders. Study participants will be recruited from patients that are referred to or treated at the Coagulation Unit, Karolinska University Hospital, and Pediatric Coagulation Unit, Astrid Lingren Children's Hospital.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Platelet-thrombus formation on collagen surface
Time Frame: At study inclusion
Whole-blood platelet-thrombus formation on collagen surface measured in a semi-automatic microchip flow chamber by a pressure sensor. Coagulation activation is inhibited.
At study inclusion

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Platelet count effect on platelet-thrombus formation on collagen surface
Time Frame: At study inclusion
Whole-blood platelet-thrombus formation on collagen surface as for primary outcome. Subgroup analysis for patients with platelet count < 150 x 10^9 /L.
At study inclusion
ddAVP effect on platelet-thrombus formation on collagen surface
Time Frame: Immediately before and 1 hour after administration of ddAVP.
Whole-blood platelet-thrombus formation on collagen surface, similar as for primary outcome measurement. In a subset of patients with a clinical indication (physician discretion).
Immediately before and 1 hour after administration of ddAVP.
Thrombus formation on collagen/TF
Time Frame: At study inclusion
Thrombus formation on collagen surface/tissue-factor surface measured in a semi-automatic microchip flow chamber by a pressure sensor.
At study inclusion
