Abstract

The present invention is concerned with a method and apparatus for determining the instant at which coagulating blood forms a clot—the primary function of a clot being to act as a hemostatic plug at the site of a lesion in the circulatory system. The method comprises applying a harmonically time-varying stress and strain of controlled amplitude and frequency to the blood using a rheometer and through the use of the Chambon-Winter Gel Equation, the method is capable of determining the gel point which precedes the clotting time indicated by a thromboelastograph.
