Overview
The "Haemophilia Profile" is a specialized set of tests used for screening, diagnosing, and monitoring coagulation disorders, specifically focusing on haemophilia, which is a genetic bleeding disorder characterized by deficiencies in clotting factors, particularly Factor VIII (8) for Hemophilia A and Factor IX (9) for Hemophilia B. The profile typically includes the following key components: APTT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time): This test measures the time it takes for blood to clot in response to specific activators. It is sensitive to deficiencies in clotting factors, particularly Factors VIII and IX, and can help identify possible bleeding disorders. Factor VIII: This test measures the level of Factor VIII in the blood. Low levels or absence of Factor VIII is indicative of Hemophilia A, which is the most common form of haemophilia. Factor IX: This test measures the level of Factor IX in the blood. Reduced or absent Factor IX levels indicate Hemophilia B, also known as Christmas disease. The Haemophilia Profile is essential for diagnosing and monitoring patients suspected of having hemophilia. Early detection is crucial to initiate appropriate management and treatment strategies, which often include replacement therapies with clotting factor concentrates to prevent or control bleeding episodes. Regular monitoring of clotting factor levels helps ensure that patients with hemophilia receive appropriate and timely care to prevent complications associated with bleeding disorders. Additionally, genetic testing may also be conducted to confirm the specific type of hemophilia and to assess the inheritance pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Haemophilia Profile measures the levels of clotting factors, including Factor VIII and Factor IX, in your blood.
• To screen and early-detect haemophilia or other bleeding disorders • To confirm a suspected diagnosis of haemophilia based on symptoms • To monitor the effectiveness of treatment for haemophilia • To assess the risk of excessive bleeding during surgery or dental procedures
The Haemophilia Profile is recommended under the following circumstances: • Individuals with a family history of bleeding disorders like haemophilia • Those experiencing unexplained or excessive bleeding or bruising • Patients who have undergone a surgery or dental procedure and are at higher risk of bleeding • Infants born to mothers with a history of bleeding disorders
Abnormal results on the Haemophilia Profile may indicate a deficiency in clotting factors, suggesting a bleeding disorder such as haemophilia.
During the test, a small sample of your blood will be drawn from a vein in your arm. The sample will be sent to the laboratory for analysis.
• No fasting or specific dietary restrictions are necessary. • Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking, as certain drugs can affect test results. Also, tell them if you have any specific requirements. • Follow any additional instructions provided by your doctor regarding medication adjustments.
• Complete Blood Count (CBC): Evaluates overall blood cell counts and may detect abnormalities related to bleeding disorders • Mixing Studies: Helps differentiate between clotting factor deficiencies and inhibitors • Genetic Testing: Identifies specific gene mutations responsible for haemophilia
Coagulation Factor Assay or Clotting Factor Profile
Haemophilia is a rare bleeding disorder characterised by a deficiency or dysfunction of clotting factors, primarily Factors VIII and IX. It leads to prolonged bleeding, easy bruising, and an increased risk of spontaneous bleeding into joints and muscles. Treatment involves replacing the deficient clotting factors and managing bleeding episodes.
