  • Identification of novel disease states using viscoelastic analysis in the presence of a thrombolytic agent
    Patent number: 11137409
    Abstract: In some embodiments, the invention provides methods for detecting an aberrant fibrinolysis condition in a patient. The method includes subjecting a blood sample from the patient to a viscoelastic analysis in the presence of a known amount of a thrombolytic agent, to obtain a coagulation characteristic value of the patient; and comparing the coagulation characteristic value of the patient to a coagulation characteristic value of a healthy individual, the coagulation characteristic value of the healthy individual obtained by subjecting a blood sample from a healthy individual to the viscoelastic analysis in the presence of the known amount of the thrombolytic agent, wherein a difference in the coagulation characteristic value of the patient as compared to the coagulation characteristic value of the healthy individual identifies the patent as having aberrant fibrinolysis.

  • COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR WOUND CLOSURE
    Publication number: 20200129448
    Abstract: The current disclosure provides compositions and methods for wound closure. The disclosure provides an device comprising: a) a material with a surface comprising a modified fibrinogen or a modified fibrin, wherein the modified fibrinogen or modified fibrin is more resistant to fibrinolysis than an unmodified fibrinogen or an unmodified fibrin, respectively; and b) one or more dispersible fibrinolysis inhibitors in contact with the surface comprising a plasmin inhibitor; and c) optionally, a thrombin agent or platelets.

  • Identification of Novel Disease States Using Viscoelastic Analysis in the Presence of an Thrombolytic Agent
    Publication number: 20170336423

The method includes subjecting a blood sample from the patient to a viscoelastic analysis in the presence of a known amount of a thrombolytic agent, to obtain a coagulation characteristic value of the patient; and comparing the coagulation characteristic value of the patient to a coagulation characteristic value of a healthy individual, the coagulation characteristic value of the healthy individual obtained by subjecting a blood sample from a healthy individual to the viscoelastic analysis in the presence of the known amount of the thrombolytic agent, wherein a difference in the coagulation characteristic value of the patient as compared to the coagulation characteristic value of the healthy individual identifies the patent as having aberrant fibrinolysis.
