Whole blood. Multiplate multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA) is a test of platelet function in whole blood. [1] [2] The test can be used to diagnose platelet disorders, [3] [4] [5] monitor antiplatelet therapy, [6] and is also investigated as a potential predictor of transfusion requirements and bleeding risk in cardiac surgery. [7]
PFA-100. The PFA-100 ( P latelet F unction A ssay [1] or P latelet F unction A nalyser [2]) is a platelet function analyser that aspirates blood in vitro from a blood specimen into disposable test cartridges through a microscopic aperture cut into a biologically active membrane at the end of a capillary. The membrane of the cartridges are ...
Air displacement plethysmography ( ADP, also known as whole-body air displacement plethysmography) is a recognized and scientifically validated densitometric method to measure human body composition . ADP is based on the same principles as the gold standard method of hydrostatic weighing, but through a densitometric technique that uses air ...
Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), also known as adenosine pyrophosphate (APP), is an important organic compound in metabolism and is essential to the flow of energy in living cells. ADP consists of three important structural components: a sugar backbone attached to adenine and two phosphate groups bonded to the 5 carbon atom of ribose .
Actual Deferral Percentage (ADP) Test. The ADP caps the amount that Highly Compensated Employees, or HCEs, can contribute to their 401(k) plans, based on the average contribution levels of their ...
A relative afferent pupillary defect ( RAPD ), also known as a Marcus Gunn pupil, is a medical sign observed during the swinging-flashlight test [1] whereupon the patient's pupils dilate when a bright light is swung from the unaffected eye to the affected eye. The affected eye still senses the light and produces pupillary sphincter constriction ...
View/Edit Mouse. P2Y12 is a chemoreceptor for adenosine diphosphate (ADP) [5] [6] that belongs to the G i class of a group of G protein-coupled (GPCR) purinergic receptors. [7] This P2Y receptor family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine ...
The actual deferral percentage (ADP) of all HCEs as a group cannot exceed 2 percentage points greater than all NHCEs as a group. This is known as the ADP test. When a plan fails the ADP test, it essentially has two options to come into compliance.
