Abstract
The invention relates to a throughflow device for measuring platelet function of primary hemostasis, aggregation and/or coagulation and/or viscosity of the blood. A reservoir (8), from which blood can be taken for measurement and transported through an aperture (7), is arranged in a housing (2). A stirring device (10,11,12,13) is provided in the reservoir (8) and can be moved in such a way that a stirrer part (11) of the stirring device (10,11,12,13) mixes the blood which is located in the storage chamber (8) during measurement and maintains it in a state of motion.
