Shortage of Supplies for TEG Testing

Due to a short supply of kaolin vials, please be discretionary when ordering TEG testing (Thromboelastograph, LAB5831; Thromboelastograph – Heparinase, LAB5833) for the next 24 hours. If the laboratory uses the last of this supply, they will be unable to perform testing. We are expecting a shipment on Saturday morning. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

Questions should be directed to the Hematology laboratory (356-3530) or Dr. Carol Holman (carol-holman@uiowa.edu, 356-3981).
