SMART CLOT Technology Overview - PCT/EP2006/069689 Smart Clot is the most advanced technology for a more global assessment of haemostasis in whole blood, under flow conditions. Smart Clot Device
Smart Clot Working Scheme
Advantages Smart Clot has different innovative skills: √ Unique structured device for diagnosis and pharmacological monitoring of thrombotic, ischemic and hemorragic pathology, √ Peculiar mechanisms that allow to reproduce flow-dynamic conditions of blood circulation and cyto-adhesive extracellular substances, √ Smart Clot monitors haemostasis as a whole dynamic process instead of isolated conventional end point coagulation screens, √ Smart Clot tests the behaviour of platelet/fibrin thrombus formation at different shear rates, √ Smart Clot uses whole blood without the addition of platelet agonists, √ Smart Clot reduces operators biohazard, √ Smart Clot allows the most rapid, complete and automatized screening of platelets function.
