Development and evaluation of a disposable device for performing simultaneous duplicate bleeding time determinations. 1978

S R Babson, and A L Babson

A disposable bleeding time device that provides two simultaneous standardized incisions is described. The mean bleeding time of 47 normal adults was 4.1 min with a 95% range of 2.2--7.0 min. The standard deviation of duplicate bleeding times was 0.7 min, and the day-to-day standard deviation for individuals was 0.9 min. In a double-blind crossover study of 20 normal adults, the mean bleeding time increased from 3.7 to 6.2 min after ingestion of 1 g aspirin. The device is extremely simple to use and is essentially painless. Physical trauma is minimal.

D001241 Aspirin The prototypical analgesic used in the treatment of mild to moderate pain. It has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties and acts as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase which results in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. Aspirin also inhibits platelet aggregation and is used in the prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis.
