Abstract:BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate whether the temperature of distilled water used for reconstituting lyophilized routine internal quality control (IQC) material may influence the process of validation of analytical sessions of routine hemostasis testing.MethodsRoutine hemostasis testing was performed for 10 consecutive days using two levels of IQC materials dissolved using distilled water at three different temperatures (2–4°C, 22–24°C and 36–38°C). The tests assayed comprised prothrombin time (PT), ac… Show more
