[0002] Coagulation analyzers are widely used in the field of POCT coagulation testing, and various indicators have clear clinical and physiological significance. Thromboelastographs have also been widely promoted. Thromboelastogram (TEG) is a graph drawn by a thrombelastometer, which is an indicator that reflects the dynamic changes of blood coagulation (including the formation rate of fibrin, the dissolution state and the firmness and elasticity of the coagulation). Although thrombelastograms have a series of advanced, convenient and innovative features in detection methods, detection processes and detection accuracy, they are based on their inherent characteristics under the premise of their own detection principles. The current thrombelastographs still have a series of shortcomings and deficiencies in terms of patient experience, detection efficiency, and degree of automation, which greatly limits their application prospects in hospitals, professional clinical testing institutions, and especially in the field of patient home health monitoring.
[0003] As a result, blood sample test cards came into being.
