Test Overview

What is an APTT Test in Rajkot?

The APTT test is a common blood test that measures how long it takes for your blood to form a clot. This test helps your doctor understand your body's ability to stop bleeding when you get a cut or injury.

The APTT test helps detect bleeding disorders like haemophilia and monitors the effectiveness of blood-thinning medications, particularly heparin therapy.

What Does an APTT Test Measure in Rajkot?

The APTT test evaluates specific proteins in your blood called 'clotting factors' that are essential for proper blood clotting.

  • Measures the time it takes for a blood clot to form in laboratory conditions.
  • Evaluates the function of clotting factors, including Factors I, II, V, VIII, IX, X, XI, and XII.
  • Assesses the intrinsic and common pathways of the blood clotting process.
  • Monitors the effectiveness of heparin therapy in patients receiving blood-thinning treatment.
  • Helps identify deficiencies or problems with specific clotting factors.

Who Should Consider an APTT Test?

Your doctor may recommend an APTT test if you fall into one of these categories:

  • Patients experiencing unexplained or prolonged bleeding, such as frequent nosebleeds or easy bruising.
  • Individuals with a family history of bleeding disorders like haemophilia or von Willebrand disease.
  • People scheduled for surgery who need a pre-operative bleeding risk assessment.
  • Patients receiving heparin therapy require regular monitoring.
  • Individuals with symptoms suggesting liver disease or autoimmune conditions like lupus.
  • Those with heavy menstrual periods or blood in urine or stool.

What is the Purpose of an APTT Test?

The APTT test is a crucial diagnostic tool for identifying the cause of abnormal bleeding or clotting in your body. It helps doctors confirm or rule out deficiencies in specific clotting factors and ensures that patients on blood-thinning medications receive safe and effective treatment doses.
