Comprehensive Venous Thrombosis workup with Interpretation

UOW5252

"When clinically indicated, Lupus anticoagulant, DRVVT (LUPAC) will be reflexively added for diagnosis with an additional charge.

NOTE: Results will be reviewed/Interpreted by an MD and a professional fee is billed. If an MD review is not desired, order tests individually.

Collect Blood in each of the following tubes:
Preferred: 4 mL blood in Gold SST tube + 3 each of either a 3 mL or 5 mL Blue Top (CITRATE) tube + 3 mL Lavender tube
Also Acceptable: 4 mL blood in Orange RST, Lime Green PST, Red Top or Green Top tube + 3 each of either a 3 mL or 5 mL Blue Top (CITRATE) tube + 3 mL Lavender tube

Blood

 Entire samples

Platelet poor Coag Citrate Specimen processing:                                                                                                                                                                                               
 MUST PROCESS WITHIN 4 HOURS OF COLLECTION
1. Gently invert tube 2-3 times prior to placing in Centrifuge            
2. Centrifuge Citrate whole blood at 4500 rpm for 10 minutes
3. Carefully pipette plasma, avoiding the platelet/buffy coat into a plastic vial
4. Centrifuge plasma at 4500 rpm for 10 minutes
5. Pipette the plasma to a plastic vial, leaving the bottom 0.25 mL undisturbed
6. Freeze plasma immediately and transport frozen. 
 SST/MINT/RED TOP OR GREEN TOP Processing:
1. Centrifuge and decant an aliquot of serum/plasma (minimum 0.3 mL) and freeze at -20 °C
Lavender top Processing:
1. Entire 3 mL Lav Top tube transported Ambient Temperature

Citrate Plasma: 3 - 1mL aliquots AND SST/Mint/Red/Green: 1 0.3 mL aliquot AND Entire 3 mL Lav Top Tube
