| Zusammenfassung: | Objective
To compare the accuracy of a point‐of‐care coagulation analyzer (POCCA) with a reference laboratory coagulation analyzer (LabCA) and to evaluate for confounding factors that could alter the performance of the POCCA.
Design
Prospective, observational study.
Setting
Two university veterinary teaching hospitals.
Animals
Forty‐three client‐owned dogs undergoing coagulation testing between April 2020 and June 2021.
Methods
Samples were obtained from dogs undergoing coagulation testing as part of a diagnostic workup. Prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) were measured on the POCCA and on the LabCA. PCV, platelet count, total plasma protein, hyperbilirubinemia, hemolysis, lipemia, and autoagglutination were recorded.
Results
Moderate correlation was seen for PT and strong correlation was seen for aPTT between the POCCA and the LabCA (PT: 0.59, P |
