Evaluation of DOAC Filter, a new device to remove direct oral anticoagulants from plasma samples.

Introduction: Directs oral anticoagulants (DOACs) can interfere with coagulation assays, especially in thrombophilia workup. To avoid these interferences, a new device, DOAC Filter, allows the removal of DOACs from citrated plasma. This study aims to confirm that DOAC Filter efficiently removes DOACs and to ascertain that coagulation assays are not impacted by filtration.
