Abstract
A kit is provided for measuring chemical and physical stresses on the blood platelets of a human patient by measuring reduction in ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and ADP (adenosine diphosphate) concentrations while measuring increases in the ATP degradation products HYPX (hypoxanthine) and the AMP (adenosine monophosphate). The kit is useful for measuring a human patient's risk to internal stress such as reduction in the size of blood vessels, to response to various environmental changes as well as to a variety of treatments including drug treatment, risk of malignant hyperthermia in response to anesthetic administration or in response to vascular or organ transplant.
