Overview
Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) is a blood test that measures the time it takes for blood to clot by evaluating the intrinsic and common coagulation pathways. The test is used to assess the functioning of clotting factors, such as factor VIII, IX, XI, and XII, and to monitor patients on heparin therapy. aPTT is also used to diagnose bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia, and to identify individuals with clotting factor deficiencies. Abnormal aPTT results can indicate an increased risk of bleeding or thrombosis, and may require further testing or medical intervention.
Description
Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) is a blood test that measures the time it takes for blood to clot by triggering the intrinsic coagulation pathway. The test involves adding a substance called partial thromboplastin to a blood sample, which activates the clotting process. The time it takes for the blood to clot is then measured and expressed in seconds. aPTT is a sensitive test that helps evaluate the functioning of clotting factors and the overall coagulation process, providing valuable information for diagnosing and monitoring bleeding disorders and anticoagulant therapy.
