The Anti-Phospholipid Antibody Test detects antibodies against phospholipids, helping diagnose antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and assess the risk of blood clots.

A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm and analyzed for the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies.

No fasting or special preparation is required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.

Results are usually available within 1-2 days, depending on the laboratory’s processing time.

Discuss any abnormal results with your healthcare provider, who will guide you on further tests or treatment options based on your specific condition.

The APPT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time) test measures the time it takes for blood to clot, evaluating the functionality of clotting factors in the blood.

It is crucial for diagnosing bleeding disorders, monitoring anticoagulant therapy, and assessing clotting function before surgery.

No special preparation is usually needed. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking.

Results are generally available within a few hours to 1 day after the test.

The test helps diagnose bleeding disorders such as hemophilia, monitor anticoagulant therapy, and assess clotting function for surgical evaluation.

Techniques include implant-based reconstruction, autologous flap reconstruction, and a combination of both methods.
