Dear George, I greatly appreciate your website and congratulate you on have such a informative and open educational forum. I was wondering if it was possible to add “in-house dilute thrombin time” to the current Quick Question list? Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Glen Holloway.

I will incorporate in-house DTT for the next go-around of the Quick Question, which I plan to update next week when I return from Amsterdam and the ISTH meeting. Meanwhile, I invite our participants to respond in the comment section below so we can obtain a “straw poll.” I will be interested in seeing the results. Geo.
