    Summary

    Assaying Factor VIII-related antigen yielded similar results across three different blood sampling methods in adults. These methods also showed excellent correlation when tested in newborns, validating their reliability for clinical use.

    Area of Science:

    • Hematology
    • Clinical Pathology
    • Biomedical Science

    Background:

    • Accurate measurement of Factor VIII-related antigen is crucial for diagnosing and managing bleeding disorders.
    • Standardizing blood collection methods is essential for reliable laboratory results.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the reliability of different blood sampling techniques for assaying Factor VIII-related antigen.
    • To compare results obtained from venous citrated samples with heparinized and plain capillary samples.

    Main Methods:

    • Factor VIII-related antigen levels were measured using three distinct blood sampling methods: venous citrated, heparinized capillary, and plain capillary samples.
    • Assays were performed on adult participants across a range of Factor VIII-related antigen values.
    • Two of the validated adult sampling methods were subsequently applied to newborn samples.

    Main Results:

    • All three sampling methods produced nearly identical Factor VIII-related antigen results in adults.
    • Excellent correlation was observed between the two sampling methods used in the newborn cohort.
    • The findings indicate minimal variability in antigen levels regardless of the collection technique.

    Conclusions:

    • The study validates the use of multiple blood sampling methods, including capillary collections, for accurate Factor VIII-related antigen measurement.
    • These findings support the interchangeability of the tested methods in both adult and neonatal populations.
    • The results enhance confidence in laboratory diagnostics for coagulation factor deficiencies.
