Plasma obtained with the HF showed a significantly higher median PT (9.4 vs. 7.9 s, P = 0.0006) and aPTT (14.9 vs. 13.1 s, P = 0.0128) than plasma prepared with C. Lower albumin (21.7 vs. 23.5 g/l, P = 0.0162) and fibrinogen (1.0 vs. 1.5 g/l, P = 0.0005) concentrations and activities of FV (105 vs. 114%, P = 0.0021) and antithrombin (104 vs. 117%, P = 0.0024) were seen in blood products obtained with the HF. Here, F2 is linked to hydrops fetalis.
