Objective: We aim to find the time in which a thawed citrate plasma sample that was preserved can be analyzed for routine coagulation testing without losing precision.Methods: Whole blood samples from 30 healthy volunteers were collected in 3.2% sodium citrate vacutainer and centrifuged to separate platelet-poor plasma. Each sample was then aliquoted, one aliquot was used immediately for prothrombin time (PT)-international normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), four were stored at -20°C, and four were stored at -80°C for 24 hours. After 24 hours, the aliquots were taken out and thawed at 37°C in water bath and analyzed after 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes.Statistical analysis: Data were presented as mean with standard deviation (SD). Repeated measures ANOVA with Tukey post-hoc test was performed for multiple comparisons. All analysis was done using GraphPAD Prism 8.0 software (GraphPad Software, San Diego, California, USA).Results: In the case of PT and INR, no statistically significant difference was found between the mean values after thawing for 120 minutes when compared with the mean baseline value. However, the APTT showed a statistically significant difference (p = 0.0232) after 30 minutes of thawing when the sample was stored at -20°C. Furthermore, a statistically significance difference (p = 0.0001) was found after 60 minutes of thawing when the samples were stored at -80°C.Conclusion: Plasma samples for the PT and INR may be accepted for assessment up to 120 minutes, when stored at -20°C and -80°C for 24 hours. In the case of APTT, the plasma sample can be used for assessment up to 30 minutes after thawing when stored at -20°C and up to 60 minutes when stored at -80°C.
