[A new system of analysis for partial thromboplastin time. Comparison with other blood coagulation tests in liver diseases].

A new analysis system for the partial thromboplastin test (Cephotest) has been applied to 40 subjects (normal, suffering from nutritional toxic hepatopathy, chronic hepatopathy and cirrhosis of the liver). The test was then compared with other blood clotting tests (Howell's test, PTT test, Quick's test, Normotest and Thrombotest) and proved to have very good standardization and sensitivity.
