LOINC description : Dilute Russell Viper Venom Time Confirmation reported as a Ratio as part of the Lupus
Anticoagulant Panel. In the confirmatory assay, a second dRVVT is performed using
a reagent with additional phospholipids capable of neutralizing the LA. A ratio of
the clotting times is calculated from the dRVVT screening test divided by the dRVVT
confirmatory test. If a LA is present, the dRVVT confirmatory test will correct to
normal. The dRVVT confirmatory reagent also contains a neutralizing agent for heparin
in concentrations up to 1 unit/mL. Although patients on Coumadin or patients with
deficiencies of factor II, V, and X may show prolonged times, the final ratio will
be normal unless a LA is present. The dRVVT confirmatory assay should be run only
if the dRVVT screening assay is elevated above the normal reference interval. In thei
case, the confirmatory test is done and a ratio is calculated. If the ratio is greater
than the upper limit of the established normal reference interval, the LA is present.
If the ratio is less than or equal to the upper limit, the LA is absent. The dRVVT
screen to confirm ratio formula is based on the 2009 International Society on Thrombosis
and Haemostasis lupus anticoagulant testing guidelines. [PMID:19624461];
