Characterization of blood hemostasis and oxygen transport parameters

An integrated system for determining a hemostasis and oxygen transport parameter of a blood sample, such as blood, is disclosed. The system includes a measurement system, such as an ultrasonic sensor, configured to determine data characterizing the blood sample. For example, the data could be the displacement of the blood sample in response to ultrasonic pulses. An integrated aspect of the system can be a sensor, a sample portion or common data for rapid and efficient determination of both parameters. The parameters can also be used to correct or improve the measured parameters. For example, physiological adjustments can be applied to hemostatic parameters using an HCT measurement. Additionally, physical adjustments may be applied, such as by calibration using a speed or attenuation of the sound pulse through or through the blood sample. These parameters can be displayed in a GUI to guide treatment. (Automatic translation with Google Translate, without legal value)
