Measuring Activated Clotting Time during Cardiac Catheterization and PCI: The Effect of the Sampling Site
Background/Purpose. We aimed to investigate the influence of the sampling site on the variability of ACT measurement. Activated clotting time (ACT) has been used for decades in cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology to assess unfractionated heparin activity. However, standardized protocols fo...
