Differences of parameters in citrated non-activated (CN) group among 0, 15, 30 minutes. Little sign means statistical differences and error bars represent SD. R – reaction time, time from the start of the sample run to the first detectable clot formation (amplitude =2 mm); K – time from R to the clot amplitude of 20 mm (to specify the kinetics of the clot development); alfa angle, the angle formed by the slope between the amplitude of the trace at 2 mm and 20 mm; MA, maximum clot amplitude; CI, coagulation index; LY 30 and LY 60, level of fibrinolysis at 30 and 60 min, respectively, after MA was reached. * means significant differences between CN 0 min vs. CN 15 min and between CN 0 min vs. CN 30 min, p < 0.05; # means significant difference between CN 0 min vs. CN 30 min, p < 0.05; x means non-significant difference between CN 15 min vs. CN 30 min, p > 0.05.
