Term Description

Microviscometer analyzers used clinically for coagulation assays commonly report a unit for clot formation that monotonically increases with increasing viscosity but is not a standard viscosity unit such as centipoise. The clot unit produced by these assays has a long historical precedent. It is considered a measure of viscosity of a liquid prior to clot formation and the viscous component of a viscoelastic gel after clot formation, albeit reported on a continuous scale.

Part Description

LP420959-1   Microviscometry
Microviscometry is a method that measures the viscous property of a liquid or gel. In the field of hemostasis, it is employed as a way to follow the physical properties of a blood sample during coagulation and fibrin formation. It differs from thromboelastography, which evaluates the developing stiffness of a forming clot, in that microviscometry evaluates the viscosity changes in blood even before a clot begins to form and tracks these changes during and after clot formation.
