What is an elevated PTT?

An abnormal (too long) PTT result may also be due to: Bleeding disorders , a group of conditions in which there is a problem with the body's blood clotting process. Disorder in which the proteins that control blood clotting become over active ( disseminated intravascular coagulation )

What does a high PTT mean?

What do the results mean? Your PTT test results will show how much time it took for your blood to clot. Results are usually given as a number of seconds. If your results show that your blood took a longer-than-normal time to clot, it may mean you have: A bleeding disorder, such as hemophilia or von Willebrand disease.

Are aPTT and PTT the same?

The partial thromboplastin time (PTT; also known as activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)) is a screening test that helps evaluate a person's ability to appropriately form blood clots. It measures the number of seconds it takes for a clot to form in a sample of blood after substances (reagents) are added.

What are the diagnostic application of PTT?

The PTT is used primarily to investigate unexplained bleeding or clotting. It may be ordered along with a prothrombin time (PT/INR) to evaluate the process that the body uses to form blood clots to help stop bleeding.

Factor V deficiency shouldn't be confused with factor V Leiden mutation, a much more common condition that causes excessive blood clotting.

Are aPTT and PTT the same?

The partial thromboplastin time (PTT; also known as activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)) is a screening test that helps evaluate a person's ability to appropriately form blood clots. It measures the number of seconds it takes for a clot to form in a sample of blood after substances (reagents) are added.

What are PTT levels?

While PTT does not measure anticoagulation directly, it measures the effect on blood clotting. Measured in seconds to clot formation, normal PTT can vary based on laboratory or institution; however, normal PTT is between 25 to 35.

Test Includes

Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT); dilute Russell's viper venom time (dRVVT); international normalized ratio (INR); pathologist interpretation; prothrombin time; thrombin time

Expected Turnaround Time

Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.

Collection

Plasma must be separated from cells within 45 minutes of venipuncture and centrifuged a second time before being placed in plastic transport tubes. Freeze within two hours and keep frozen until testing is performed.

Patient Preparation

Ideally the patient should not be on anticoagulant therapy. Avoid warfarin (Coumadin®) therapy for two weeks prior to the test and heparin, direct Xa and thrombin inhibitor therapies for about three days prior to testing.
