Breve descrizione dei contenuti:
The blood to anticoagulant ratio is standardized according to the physiological calcium concentration in blood samples conventionally used for hemostasis testing. Specifically, one fixed volume of 0.109 mmol/L sodium citrate is added to 9 volumes of blood. Since little is known about the impact of hypercalcemia on the calcium-binding capacity of citrate, this study was planned to investigate the effect of experimental hypercalcemia on routine hemostasis testing.
