title: [Time of euglobulin coagulation as a short-cut method of blood aggregation diagnostics].
abstract: Euglobulin coagulation time (ECT) forms the basis for a short-cut method of assessing the blood activator potential, a pivot of fibrinolysis which is responsible for blood fluidity. During simulation of complicated flight conditions the method was good enough to display variations in the blood activator potential in response to specific types of extreme factors. ECT was measured in 94.47% of 398 patients subjected to hemocoagulation examination. In 338 patients ECT was within the clinical norm and in 60 patients ECT was in the pathology range. Complex analysis of experimental and clinical coagulograms including ECT, fibrinolysis, factor I, prothrombin time, and prothrombin index brought to the conclusion about cardiovascular and hepatic dysfunctions. Therefore, our investigations showed that the ECT short-cut method can be adopted for blood aggregation diagnostics in military and civil pilots.
