PENGARUH KONSENTRASI NATRIUM SITRAT 3,1%, DAN 3,8%, TERHADAP PEMERIKSAAN LAJU ENDAP DARAH PADA PASIEN LAKI-LAKI NORMAL

ABSTRACT
Blood Sedimentation Rate is the rate at which erythrocytes settle from a blood sample examined in a particular instrument, expressed in mm/hour. Research has been conducted on the effect of ESR examination using Na Citrate concentrations of 3.1% and 3.8% in normal male patients. This study was to determine the comparison of ESR examinations using 3.1% and 3.8% sodium citrate concentrations with a comparison of one part anticoagulant and four parts blood in normal male patient samples who were examined for 60 minutes using a Westegen tube. led test results phase. The statistical method used in this research method is an experimental method using an experimental design. The variables in this experimental design are the concentration of sodium citrate 3.1%, 3.8% and the response variable is the erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The number of samples used was 10 samples with data from normal adult male patients. This analytical data processing uses statistical methods which are used to test whether there are significant differences between two groups or populations. The research results obtained indicated that there was no significant effect between different concentrations of Sodium Citrate on the erythrocyte sedimentation rate so The highest average yield was 6.7% with a sodium citrate concentration of 3.1% and a standard deviation of 1.494. the lowest average was 6.6% with a sodium citrate concentration of 3.8%, based on these results, further analysis to determine the differences in each concentration and which was the best concentration that could be used in this study was not carried out.
