LaboratoryThrombin generation test panel - Platelet poor plasma
Definition
The thrombin generation test (TGT) measures the thrombin activity in a plasma sample during the initiation, propagation, and termination phases of coagulation. The TGT generates a curve (thrombin generation curve) from which multiple parameters can be measured, including peak thrombin and time to peak thrombin. [PMID: 21262433]
