Test Includes

LA-sensitive activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT); dilute prothrombin time (dPT); thrombin time. If any of these three screening tests is extended, reflex testing is performed and additional charges/CPT code (s) will apply.

Special Instructions

This test will reflex immediately to aPTT Mixing Studies [117199] if aPTT is five or more seconds above the upper end of the reference interval.

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

Citrated plasma samples should be collected by double centrifugation. Blood should be collected in a blue-top tube containing 3.2% buffered sodium citrate. 1 Evacuated collection tubes must be filled to completion to ensure a proper blood to anticoagulant ratio.

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.

Causes for Rejection

Severe hemolysis; improper labeling; clotted specimen; specimen diluted with IV fluids; samples thawed in transit; improper sample type; sample out of stability

Test Includes
