Definition:
Abnormally decreased length of time required for an in vitro clot to dissolve in the absence of the normal plasmin inhibitors. This test is a clinical assay used to measure fibrinolysis. The euglobulin fraction of plasma is precipitated and used to form clot by addition of thrombin; after clot forms the rate of clot breakdown (fibrinolysis) can be monitored.
