[The issue of use parallelism factor method and index of circulating anticoagulant in diagnostic algorithm deficity of coagulation factors.].

The paper presents the comparative use of algorithms to identify the causes of deficiency of coagulation factors in patients with a prolonged APTT, including the definition of the index of circulating anticoagulant (ICA) and the factor-parallelism (FP) method. The results obtained in children with hereditary hemophilia and adults with acquired hemophilia. It is shown that ICA is an effective method for pre-selection of patients with hereditary hemophilia if you suspect an inhibitor to subsequent confirmation test Bethesda.
