APTT-PTTK

The partial thromboplastin time (PTT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT or APTT) is a performance indicator measuring theefficacy of both the contact activation pathway and the common coagulation pathways. the aPTT is often used as a starting place wheninvestigating the cause of a bleeding or thrombotic (blood clot) episode. The aPTT and PT tests are also sometimes used as pre-surgical screens for bleeding tendencies. The aPTT is also used to monitor heparin anticoagulant therapy. It may be useful to look forcomplications of some diseases, such as disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).The APTT may also increase in liver disease, as the liver is the source of most coagulation factors. When the patient has had athrombotic episode or recurrent miscarriages, the aPTT may be ordered as part of an evaluation for antiphospholipid syndrome.When a patient is on intravenous (IV) or injection heparin therapy, the aPTT is ordered at regular intervals to monitor the degree ofanticoagulation. When a person is switched from heparin therapy to longer-term warfarin therapy, the two are overlapped and both theaPTT and PT are monitored until the patient has stabilised.
