2. 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.
3. FERRITIN
The Ferritin Test measures the amount of ferritin in your blood, indicating your body’s total iron stores.
It helps diagnose and monitor iron-related conditions like anemia and iron overload disorders, providing crucial insights into your iron metabolism.
A simple blood sample is collected and analyzed to determine ferritin levels, usually requiring no special preparation.
Low levels suggest iron deficiency, while high levels can indicate iron overload, chronic inflammation, or liver disease.
Frequency depends on individual health conditions and risk factors. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
