LaboratoryThrombin peak [Molar amount] in Platelet poor plasma by Chromogenic method
Definition
The peak thrombin is the maximum thrombin measurement during a thrombin generation test. Decreased peak thrombin is associated with bleeding tendencies, while increased peak thrombin is associated with thrombosis. [PMID: 21262433]
