LOINC description : Resonance thrombelastography determination of fibrin clot strength, stimulated with
tissue factor, and platelets inhibited by a platelet glycoprotein IIb-IIIa receptor
inhibitor such as abciximab. The maximum amplitude (MA) in TEG reflects both a plasmatic
and platelet component. By including abciximab to inhibit binding of fibrin and fibrinogen
to GPIIb/IIIa receptors, the platelet effect on MA is removed (at least partly), allowing
more specific treatment of the patient. [PMID:14717978];
