Parmar K et al. - TSVT is a specific but insensitive assay for the lupus anticoagulant in individuals not receiving oral vitamin K antagonists, when assessed against the dRVVT as the gold standard. It can be argued that despite the TSVT's poor sensitivity in patients taking oral vitamin K antagonists, its high specificity and positive predictive value make it a preferable assay to the dRVVT to diagnose lupus anticoagulant in this group.
