The prothrombin time ( PT ) and partial thromboplastin time ( PTT ) is often prolonged.
12.
Prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin time, and fibrinogen tests should be performed.
13.
The partial thromboplastin test was also developed, as now used in hospital laboratories around the world.
14.
Patients with von Willebrand disease typically display a normal prothrombin time and a variable prolongation of partial thromboplastin time.
15.
An alternative name for the factor is " plasma thromboplastin component ", given by an independent group in California.
16.
Seratrodast has no effect on prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time, thus ruling out any action on blood coagulation cascade.
17.
Unfractionated heparin has the disadvantage of requiring dose adjustment based on a laboratory exam, activated partial thromboplastin time ( APTT ).
18.
Historically, thromboplastin was a lab reagent, usually derived from placental sources, used to assay prothrombin times ( PT time ).
19.
Thromboplastin is the combination of both phospholipids and tissue factor, both of which are needed in the activation of the extrinsic pathway.
20.
Partial thromboplastin time should not be confused with prothrombin time, or PT, which measures blood clotting time through a different pathway of the coagulation cascade.
