Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to review the thrombogram and its use for phenotyping the haemostatic system. The thrombogram can be readily obtained through Calibrated Automated Thrombography (CAT), using a commercially available fluorometer, dedicated software (Thrombinoscope) and a calibrator. Here we explore the possibility to use platelet-rich plasma (PRP) triggered with a low amount of recombinant human tissue factor (approximately 0.5 pM) and also explore the function of the protein C system by adding activated protein C (APC) or soluble recombinant thrombomodulin (TM). Examples are shown: inherited antithrombin (AT) and protein C deficiencies, and antiphospholipid antibodies.

Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which forms a...
