Title: [Clinical use of a test for determination of coagulation factors II, X and VII]. Author: Cascino A, Cangiano C, Attili AF. Journal: Minerva Med; 1975 Aug 29; 66(55):2743-9. PubMed ID: 1161171. Abstract: A new clotting test, the Hepato-Quick, indicated in the study of liver insufficiency was used in 102 patients comprising 22 cases of acute hepatitis, 15 of chronic hepatitis, 21 of cirrhosis of the liver, 11 with liver conditions of various nature, 23 cases with a number of diseases without liver impairment and 10 normal subjects. Quick's test was carried out at the same time in all subjects. Results show that the Hepato-Quick test is more sensitive than Quick's test for identifying liver impairment. The greater sensitivity is statistically significant. The test presents excellent standardization and can be carried out on automatic equipment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
