1. APTT Test

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.

2. CORTISOL

The Cortisol Test measures cortisol levels in the blood to assess adrenal gland function and diagnose conditions related to hormone imbalances and stress.

No fasting is required, but follow specific timing instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Inform them about any medications you are taking.

Cortisol levels typically vary throughout the day. Morning levels are usually highest, so the test is often scheduled in the morning.

Abnormal cortisol levels can indicate conditions such as Cushing’s syndrome, Addison’s disease, or other adrenal disorders. Further evaluation may be needed.

Results are generally available within 24 to 48 hours after the blood sample is collected, allowing for prompt review and diagnosis.
