Know More about PARTIAL THROMBOPLASTIN TIME ACTIVATED; PTT; APTT

The Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) test evaluates how quickly your blood clots. It helps determine whether your blood is clotting normally by measuring various elements of blood clotting. This testing is valuable to diagnose problems involving bleeding, monitor medication used to thin the blood such as heparin, and determine the degree of clotting factor deficiencies prior to scheduled surgery, as well as determination about unexplained bleeding or clotting incidences. 

Process

  • Blood is collected from a vein, usually on the inside of the elbow.
  • The blood pull entailed separating the plasma no time in testing.
  • Clotting time is evaluated by adding various substrates to the plasma.

When to be tested 

If you are experiencing unexplained bruising or bleeding, or if you are taking blood thinners, you may need this test to evaluate your blood's ability to clot properly. Additionally, if you have a family history of bleeding disorders or are preparing for surgery, this test can help assess your risk of abnormal bleeding or clotting complications.

Sample Type

You will need a sample of blood drawn from a vein.

Test Preparation

In most cases, no special preparation is necessary. Be sure to inform your doctor of any medications you are taking, and especially any blood thinners, because these may impact your test results. 

Understanding Your Results

If your results are normal, it means your blood took a reasonable amount of time to clot. An abnormal clotting time could indicate a problem with clotting factors, the effects of medication, or medically they may have other health implications and you may need further testing or treatment.
