<p>Method for the determination of platelet function in a whole blood sample comprises passing the blood through a capillary and subsequently through an opening of a partition member; and measuring the time required for the formation of thrombus at the opening of the partition member up to closure of the opening, where the partition member comprises an activator of adenosine-receptor and the activator of intracellular adenylate cyclase. An independent claim is included for a device for the determination of platelet function in a whole blood sample comprising a reservoir for holding the sample; a capillary, through which the blood is passed from the reservoir into a measurement chamber; a measurement chamber that is divided into two compartment by partition member, where the first components receives the blood from the capillary; and a partition member that divides the measurement chamber in two compartments and has an opening through which the blood can flow from the first compartment into the second compartment.</p> |
