MeSH. D010314. [ edit on Wikidata] The partial thromboplastin time ( PTT ), also known as the activated partial thromboplastin time ( aPTT or APTT ), is a blood test that characterizes coagulation of the blood. A historical name for this measure is the kaolin-cephalin clotting time ( KCCT ), [ 1] reflecting kaolin and cephalin as materials ...
The prothrombin time ( PT) – along with its derived measures of prothrombin ratio ( PR) and international normalized ratio ( INR) – is an assay for evaluating the extrinsic pathway and common pathway of coagulation. This blood test is also called protime INR and PT/INR. They are used to determine the clotting tendency of blood, in such ...
Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is used for heparin studies and the normal range is 20–36 seconds, depending upon which type of activator is used in the study. [6] Prothrombin time (PT) is used for warfarin studies and the normal values differ for men and women.
003436. [ edit on Wikidata] Liver function tests ( LFTs or LFs ), also referred to as a hepatic panel, are groups of blood tests that provide information about the state of a patient's liver. [ 1] These tests include prothrombin time (PT/INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), albumin, bilirubin (direct and indirect), and others.
MeSH. D013918. [ edit on Wikidata] The thrombin time ( TT ), also known as the thrombin clotting time ( TCT ), is a blood test that measures the time it takes for a clot to form in the plasma of a blood sample containing anticoagulant, after an excess of thrombin has been added. [ 1] It is used to diagnose blood coagulation disorders and to ...

Fresh normal plasma has all the blood coagulation factors with normal levels. If the problem is a simple factor deficiency, mixing the patient plasma 1:1 with plasma that contains 100% of the normal factor level results in a level ≥50% in the mixture (say the patient has an activity of 0%; the average of 100% + 0% = 50%).

Testosterone is measured in nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL). At its peak, during your adolescent years, a normal range for your testosterone is anywhere between 300 and 1,200 ng/dL. When you're ...
