Lupus anticoagulant (LA) testing is performed using two screening tests: activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and diluted Russell's viper venom time. If one of the screening tests is positive, a confirmation test based on the same principle is performed.
The HUS Hematology Laboratory uses an integrated APTT for LA testing, consisting of a screening reagent: Cephen LS, and a confirmation reagent: Cephen (Hyphen Biomed).
The aim of this study is to determine whether another integrated activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) test, Cryocheck HexLA, offers better performance than Cephen LS/Cephen, both in terms of sensitivity to lupus anticoagulant (LA) and susceptibility to interference from anticoagulant treatments.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Sensitivity of Cryocheck HexLA compared to Cephen LS/Cephen reagents with regard to lupus anticoagulant (LA) | A Fisher or McNemar statistical test on paired samples will be performed by comparing the results (positive or negative) of the integrated Cephen LS/Cephen and Cryocheck HexLA TCA tests, performed on the same sample, in patients not receiving anticoagulant therapy. | Up to 9 months |
