The Innovative Next-Step in HIT Diagnostics

The next evolution in Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT) diagnostics, Versiti’s P-Selectin Expression Assay - PEA, is now available for clinical order. When compared to the current ‘gold-standard’ SRA, the PEA is able to:

  • detect more patients with HIT antibodies; and
  • boasts a faster analytical time, resulting in an industry-leading TAT of <24 hours.

The Platelet and Neutrophil Immunology Laboratory has over 25 years of experience performing advanced testing for HIT and is pleased to be on the forefront of innovation with the PEA.

Join Versiti experts Juliana Perez Botero, MD, and Brian Curtis, PhD, as they discuss the challenges of HIT; the importance of a timely, accurate diagnosis for patient management; and how Versiti’s P-Selectin Expression Assay (PEA) is an optimal diagnostic option for patients with suspected HIT.

Advantages of Versiti's PEA:

Versiti’s PEA has been developed to identify the presence of and functional ability of heparin-induced antibodies to activate platelets. Because of its high specificity, the PEA is useful for confirming weak or 'inconclusive' results obtained with the highly sensitive PF4/ELISA.

*Repeat sample runs will be performed on the next scheduled testing day, in the rare event of an assay failure.
