This test will check to see how well your blood clots
4 biomarkers as listed by Better2Know.
Coagulation Profile measures key components of your clotting system, including Prothrombin Time (PT), Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT/KCCT), and Fibrinogen levels. Together, these tests provide a clear picture of how well your blood forms clots and whether there are abnormalities in the clotting cascade.
This test is often recommended for:
Abnormal coagulation may not always cause symptoms until a bleeding or clotting event occurs. Signs can include:
A blood sample is collected in citrate tubes and processed carefully. The sample must be double spun, separated, and frozen within 4-8 hours if transport to the laboratory is delayed to maintain accuracy. The laboratory measures PT, APTT/KCCT, and Fibrinogen, providing a detailed assessment of clotting function. The results help your clinician identify deficiencies or abnormalities and guide treatment or monitoring strategies.
Your appointment involves a standard blood draw performed by a trained healthcare professional. The procedure is quick, safe, and minimally invasive.
Results are typically available within 1 day. You will receive a report showing your clotting times and fibrinogen level, along with guidance from your healthcare provider regarding any necessary follow-up or treatment adjustments.
This is a routine blood test and is very safe. Most people experience only mild discomfort at the needle site.
Minor bruising or tenderness may occur. Serious complications are extremely rare. Seek medical advice if you feel unwell after the test.
