Haemostasis abnormalities including platelet dysfunction, factor deficiencies, anticoagulant effects, hyperfibrinolysis, and hypercoagulable states can be detected using the sonoclot. In addition, sonoclot analysis has been successfully used for diagnosing and treating platelet dysfunction and bleeding disorders and blood products transfusions.

Sonoclot : a global test of coagulation, as a tool to assess the risk of bleeding. Sonoclot coagulation and platelet function analyser uses viscoelastometry to measure coagulation. It provides information on the haemostasis process, including coagulation, fibrin gel formation, fibrinolysis, and is also able to assess platelet function. The sonoclot also has advantage of ability to measure platelet function in severe thrombocytopenia. It is a portable machine, which can be used as bedside tool in emergency in-patient department (ipd), blood banks or any other preferable laboratories.
