“…We recently reported a major evaluation of routine coagulation tests (prothrombin time [PT], APTT, fibrinogen, thrombin time, Ddimer) as performed on the three-instrument platform, and which formed the basis for a 75 instrument rollout to 60 laboratory sites in our organization, New South Wales (NSW) Health Pathology (NSWHP), being the largest public pathology testing service in Australia. 14 In this prior evaluation, we essentially confirmed the "equivalence" (or "interchangeability") of all three TOP instrument types (350, 550, 750) in terms of assay results. More recently, we further reported an evaluation of congenital thrombophilia assays on this platform, using both manufacturer and alternate reagents.…”
