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.

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.
The ACP Test is similar to the ADP test. Except, it looks at the employer’s contributions to make sure that the company’s matching funds don’t favor HCEs and stakeholders, in comparison to ...
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 ...
The ATP test is a process of rapidly measuring actively growing microorganisms through detection of adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. Method [ edit ] ATP is a molecule found in and around living cells , and as such it gives a direct measure of biological concentration and health.
Auditory processing disorder ( APD ), rarely known as King-Kopetzky syndrome or auditory disability with normal hearing ( ADN ), is a neurodevelopmental disorder affecting the way the brain processes sounds. [2] Individuals with APD usually have normal structure and function of the ear, but cannot process the information they hear in the same ...
Thromboelastography ( TEG) is a method of testing the efficiency of blood coagulation. It is a test mainly used in surgery and anesthesiology, although increasingly used in resuscitations in emergency departments, intensive care units, and labor and delivery suites. More common tests of blood coagulation include prothrombin time (PT) and ...
