3 Clotting tests Samples Plasma or diluted plasma Assay From 1 to 4 reagents Last reagent: start reagent, after an incubation time End point Detection of a in-vitro clot Raw data: time (seconds) 3
4 Clotting detection system June 2009 V2
5 Manual detection (1) Water bath at 37 C Endpoint is the formation of a clot Early method for clot detection (1) The manual tilt method of Quick 5 M. Heins et al, Automation in coagulation testing, JIFCC 1996
6 Manual detection (2) Water bath at 37 C Endpoint is the ability of a hook to lift the clot out of the sample Early method for clot detection (2) The hook method of Koller 6 M. Heins et al, Automation in coagulation testing, JIFCC 1996
7 Optical detection systems M. Heins et al, Automation in coagulation testing, JIFCC Detection can be performed with a filter photometer, or with a laser diode, by photometry, turbidimetry or nephelometry Drawbacks Interference with lipemic, turbid samples and turbid reagents
8 Mechanical detection systems M. Heins et al, Automation in coagulation testing, JIFCC Example of KC (Amelung) The ball is kept stationary by gravity while the tube is rotating. Clot formation moves the ball and an electromagnet stops the clotting time Drawbacks: weak clots, precision Advantage: no interference by lipemiae or turbidity
9 Viscosity-based detection system ST4, STart, STA, STA Compact, STA Compact CT, STA-R, STA-R Evolution June 2009 V2
10 Viscosity-based detection system (1) Disposable: cuvette + ball Side view The detection is based on the increase of the viscosity of the plasma being tested 10
11 Viscosity-based detection system (2) Amplitude of the ball movement Activating coil Activating coil When the start reagent is added, the detection starts. The ball motion is activated by 2 coils, working alternatively to maintain a natural oscillation 11
12 Amplitude Viscosity-based detection system (3) 12 The amplitude of the pendular movement ball is monitored during the entire clotting process It remains constant while no clot is present
13 Amplitude Viscosity-based detection system (4) As the clot forms, viscosity increases and amplitude decreases The timer is stopped, based on calculation with different algorithms, even if the clot is weak and the ball, not stopped 13
14 Viscosity-based detection system (5) Signal measured Attraction* / release + Release / attraction *25 ms / ms 14 Upper view Signal transmitted
15 Viscosity-based detection system (6) Amplitude Weak clot 1 Normal clot A measure every 5 ms Mean 1: all measures (moving mean) Mean 2: 4 last measures (weak/normal clot) 2 15

45 Indication for OAT 45
46 Need for a monitoring of OAT A common therapy but OAT is associated with an increased risk of bleeding In France, ~ hospitalised patients per year on patients treated with OAT*» STV, october 2000 Major haemorrhage at 24 months: 10.6 %» Gitter MJ, Mayo clin proc, 70, 725, 1995 A lower level of anticoagulation is associated with an increased risk of thrombosis 46 * about 1% of the population
47 Need for a monitoring of OAT The goal of the monitoring is to maintain the patient within a narrow therapeutic range The individual response to treatment is quite variable and unpredictable Individual susceptibility to OAT Genetic Acquired 47
48 Individual susceptibility to OAT Genetic factors: Hereditary resistance to warfarin (rare) Race Acquired factors Variations in the metabolisms of vitamin K, OAT and coagulation factors Pathologies (e.g. renal insufficiency) Age and weight Drugs and diet 48
49 Drugs interfering with OAT 49 Inducing drugs Amiodarone Anabolisants stéroïdiens Anti-inflammatoires non stéroïdiens Antiplaquettaires (aspirine, clopidogrel, etc.) Céphalosporines Cimétidine Erythromycine Fibrates Hormones thyroïdiennes Isoniazide Métronidazole Miconazole (danger++) Phénylbutazone Quinidine Simvastatine Sulfamides Sulfinpyrazone Inhibitory drugs Barbituriques Carbamazépine Cholestyramine Griséofulvine Nafcilline Oestrogènes Phénytoïne Rifampicine Sucralphate Vitamine K

53 Prothrombin Time results Major differences are observed when PT are performed on the same patient by different PT methods Different results are obtained when using seconds, ratio or % PT reagent dependant therapeutic range A solution: the INR system? 53
54 INR International Normalised Ratio power ISI patient's PT INR = MNPT With MNPT : Mean Normal Prothrombin Time ISI : International Sensitivity Index 54
55 Value of the International Sensitivity Index (ISI) Low ISI high sensitivity ISI < 1.5 Medium ISI 1.5 < ISI < 2.0 High ISI low sensitivity ISI > 2.0 (STA -) Néoplastine CI Plus ISI ~ 1.3 STA -Néoplastine R ISI ~ (STA -) Néoplastine CI Standardisation against International Thromboplastin Preparations
56 Therapeutic ranges Therapeutic ranges have been recommended in INR by different representative groups The most widely used come from the ACCP 1, the BSCH 2 or the GEHT 3 Therapeutic ranges given in range or in target INR 1. American College of Chest Physicians 2. British Committee for Standards in Haematology 3. Groupement d Etude Hémostase et Thrombose 56
57 Therapeutic ranges 57 Given as an example, refer to the current guidelines
58 Determination of the ISI For each lot of reagent by the manufacturer Fresh specimen from 20 healthy individuals and 60 patients with OAT PT to be calibrated against a Reference Standard, species dependant (Rabbit Brain Thromboplastin) PT (seconds) plotted on log / log scales Manual reference method Slope of the orthogonal regression line = ISI 58
59 Determination of the ISI ISI: slope of a regression line between a given thromboplastin and the Reference Thromboplastin 59
60 Goals for INR / ISI Improve patients management International recommendations for therapeutic ranges according to the different indications Increase safety for the patients Improve inter-laboratory comparison Improve quality assessment of all labs 60
61 Use of the INR system Initially restricted to patients on stable oral anticoagulant treatment (at least 2 weeks of medication) Further studies lead to a more widely use When starting the treatment After a change of dose And in very few countries, for any clinical situations including normal samples 61
62 INR What can influence the calculation of the INR? 62
63 INR What can influence the calculation of the INR? Mean Normal PT ISI 63
64 Determination of the MNPT 64 Each laboratory should determine their own Mean Normal PT MNPT = geometric mean* of at least 20 freshly prepared normal plasmas samples from healthy persons, collected over a period no longer than 5 days A correct MNPT is of fundamental importance for accuracy of INR A control plasma or a pool of normal plasma cannot be used *
65 ISI: effect of instruments Several studies showed that instruments have a significant effect on the PT and the ISI Differences between INR measured with different instruments may be sufficiently great to influence patient management» Poller et at, Am J Clin Pathol, 103, 358,
66 ISI: effect of instruments ISI variation due to instruments, from the ISI given by the manufacturer* From -7.5 % to % INR variation due to instruments, from - 15 % to +7% (INR 2.7) * Compared to the ISI (1.08) given by the manufacturer» Hemolab, STA, CA 5000, MLA 1000, ACL 300, BFA, KC 10, Schnitzer & Gross C. Caron,
67 ISI: effect of instruments Since instruments have a marked and variable effect on the ISI of the thromboplastins, a correction may be therefore necessary The use of systems (reagents + instruments) is a recommendation Local system calibration gives a reliable correction» Poller et al, Br J Haematol, 86, 112,
68 ISI: effect of instruments 1. ISI specifically determined for a couple reagent / instrument (System ) e.g STA -Néoplastine CI Plus / STA or STA Compact or STA-R No need of correction Safe 2. Direct INR calibration (seconds/inr)? Under investigation Main issue: availability of INR Standards 68
69 ISI: effect of instruments 3. Use of a standard Diagnostica Stago Use of Etaloquick (plasmas with assigned INR value) for a local ISI calculation! INR values valid only with Néoplastine on semi automated instruments such as STart Use of the local MNPT 69
70 Instrument's specific ISI INR = patient's PT ISI MNPT log INR = log patient's PT ISI MNPT log INR = ISI log patient's PT MNPT 70
71 Instrument's specific ISI ISI = log INR log (patient's PT / MNPT) ISI = log INR log ratio 71
72 Instrument's specific ISI 1st step: run Etaloquick as sample If the INR of Etaloquick 2 and 3 is within ± 10 % of the target INR, use the given ISI If > 10%, calculate ISI, as shown next page 72
73 Instrument's specific ISI log INR (Etaloquick 2) ISI 2 = log (Etaloquick 2 PT / MNPT) log INR (Etaloquick 3) ISI 3 = log (Etaloquick 3 PT / MNPT) ISI = mean of the ISI values (ISI 2 # ISI 3) 73
74 Instrument's specific ISI Example Néoplastine CI +, lot , ISI = 1.30 Clotting time Etaloquick 2 (EQ2): INR = sec. Etaloquick 3 (EQ3): INR = sec. MNPT: 13 sec. ISI 2 = log 2.1 / log ( 24 / 13) = 1.21 ISI 3 = log 3.3 / log ( 34 / 13) = 1.24 ISI =
75 Monitoring of Oral anticoagulant Therapy 75 Due to delayed action, OAT starts in conjunction with heparin therapy Patient receives heparin for at least 4 days PT reagent (insensitive to heparin) results indicate the action of OAT only PT are performed 36 to 48 hours after OAT initiation, then regularly until the PT reaches the therapeutic range in 2 successive samples (heparin should not be discontinued before) APTT checks the overall hypocoagulability Also performed if bleeding despite PT within the therapeutic range
