From the measured reactance obtained, HCT can be calculated by interpolation method (interpolation).The concrete example calculating hematocrit ratio is below described.Tradition uses the method for impedance computation hematocrit ratio to be also described as comparative example.
5th and 6 figure show experimental data figure, and it represents that impedance and reactance are along with higher hematocrit is than change respectively.As shown in the data plot of the 6th figure, in this particular example, the reactance locating different HCT (29.3 and 47%) at the 11st second is respectively 620.29,625.17 and 676.59 nurses difficult to understand (ohm).Then, the relation (the 7th figure) of HCT and impedance or the relation (the 8th figure) of HCT and reactance is calculated.As shown in Figure 5, in this particular example, the optimum impedance sample time of HCT was about more than 20 seconds, and impedance is to the calibration curve coincidence formula y=90.253x+2347.7 of HCT.Moreover as shown in Figure 6, the optimum impedance sample time of HCT was about more than 11 seconds, and reactance is to the calibration curve coincidence formula y=3.1304x+529.68 of HCT.It should be understood that x represents HCT and y represents impedance or reactance.
9th and 10 figure show an example, by LCR ammeter every 0.5 second measurement impedance value and reactance value in 60 seconds.In an example, the blood whole from experimental subjects collection and various sample system are by adding the anticoagulant (heparin (heparin)) of different amount in the whole blood gathered.Such as, the heparin concentration for the modulation clotting time (PT) is about between every milliliter of 1U to 30U.Then, described in LCR ammeter (HiokiModel No.3532-50) analysis, there is the blood sample of different PT to record impedance or reactance.
11st and 12 figure show experimental paradigm, its represent respectively PT to the calibration curve of impedance rate of change (impedancechange rate) and represent PT to the calibration curve of reactance change rate (reactance change rate).In this particular example, impedance or reactance change rate can calculate in U.S. by LCR ammeter for 10 seconds.Such as, rate of change between 30 to 40 seconds can be tried to achieve by following formula: Impedance changerate 30 to 40=(Z40-Z30)/(Time40-Time30), wherein Z is impedance, and Reactancechange rate 30 to 40=(X40-X30)/(Time40-Time30), wherein X is reactance.Calculation procedure is repeatedly calculate the impedance and reactance change rate with different PT blood sample, and determine thus PT to the calibration curve (the 7th figure) of impedance rate of change and represent PT to the calibration curve (the 8th figure) of reactance change rate.Described PT is to the calibration curve coincidence formula y=-0.1849x+4.562 of impedance rate of change, and PT is to the calibration curve coincidence formula y=-0.0256x+0.3604 of reactance change rate.It should be understood that x represents real number PT and y represents impedance or reactance change rate.
As shown in the 11st and 12 figure, the diagnostic result (the 12nd figure) of reactance measurement method manifests more excellent standard deviation (SD value) compared to the diagnostic result (the 11st figure) of Conventional impedance mensuration.More particularly, according to the present invention adopt the advantage of reactance measurement method to be significantly to reduce the standard deviation of reactance measurement method, and be about 0.9986 in this example.In view of this, adopt the impedance measurement that reactance measurement method is more traditional more accurate, even and if extend the process of blood clotting, the skew of slope also be acceptable, therefore can easier logarithm value correction.
On the other hand, in this particular example, the linear regression value (R2) of PT to the calibration curve of impedance rate of change is about 0.939, as shown in Figure 11.In view of this, impedance measurement more may cause coarse measurement result.
In above-mentioned example, impedance and the reactance of a blood sample can be measured by LCR ammeter, and difference computing impedance rate of change and reactance change rate.More particularly, HCT system obtains according to following formulae discovery by use HCT calibration curve: HCT=(impedance-2347.7)/90.253 or HCT=(reactance-529.68)/3.1304.Then, real number PT is calculated by PT calibration curve.Different HCT may correspond to different PT calibration curves.In this particular example, PT system obtains according to following formulae discovery by use PT calibration curve: PT=(impedance change rate-4.562)/-0.1849 or PT=(reactance change reate-0.3604)/-0.0256.
13rd and 14 figure show experimental data figure, its represent respectively the PT of correction to real number PT by impedance measurement and represent correct PT to real number PT by reactance measurement.By the PT value calculated by calibration curve with measured compared with the real number PT value that obtains by automatic blood Solidification Analysis instrument (Sysmex CA-500series).
The increase of described HCT or minimizing can affect the value of prothrombin time (PT) and impedance or reactance change rate.More particularly, higher HCT can cause the increase of impedance or reactance change rate value.Therefore, the process of measurement in PT described in some embodiment can comprise HCT correction step.Therefore, device according to some embodiments of the invention comprises internal storage, in order to store the interpolate value between described HCT and impedance variation.
Know on the one hand in the present invention, the PT value calculated by above example can be revised by the regular ratio in the world (international normalized ratio, INR), as shown by the following formula:
INR = ( PatientPT Mean PT ) ISI - - - ( 4 )
Wherein INR is international regular ratio, and PT is prothrombin time, the international sensitivity indices (international sensitivity index) of JiISIWei.
15A and 15B figure shows experimental data figure, and it is illustrated respectively on the poriness substrate of test card and imporosity substrate and carries out coagulation analysis.As shown in FIG., adopt poriness substrate to carry out analysis and can obtain more excellent result.
16A ~ 16C figure shows experimental data figure, and it represents respectively and carries out coagulation analysis according to the embodiment of the present invention at different frequencies by reactance measurement method.Measuring between 15 seconds to 50 seconds clotting time is respectively blood sample, and provides the survey frequency of 0.1kHz, 10kHz and 50kHz, and it is 0.9636,0.9923 and 0.9828 respectively that the detection of gained reads value with the R2 value of the calculating of regretional analysis.In this example, shown compared to frequency 0.1kHz by regretional analysis, use the survey frequency of 10kHz and 50kHz can obtain higher accuracy rate.
