method;
LOINC short name : ETP PPP Chro-AUC;
LOINC description : The endogenous thrombin potential is the area under the curve of a thrombin generation
test (TGT). It represents thrombin's total enzyme activity and is the most predictive
of bleeding and/or thrombosis risk out of all the TGT measurements. Decreased ETP
is associated with bleeding tendencies, while increased ETP is associated with thrombosis.
