Histograms showing distribution of untransformed (all but LY30) data obtained for calculation of the reference interval of the traditional TEG. Data for measurement included the first results of all samples after 60 min of storage time. The solid grey line represents the upper and the lower limit of the reference interval. The small black dotted line is consistent with the 90% confidence interval. The light grey line indicates the Gaussian curve. Abbreviations: R = reaction time (a), K = clotting time (b), Alpha = alpha angle (c), MA = maximum amplitude (d), LY30 = lysis at 30 min (e), CI = coagulation index (f), G = clot rigidity (g)
