Q: blood test result (coagulation) was 0.9, the reference range is <1.5 is my result normal?

Yes, normal: Your coagulation test result is perfectly normal.

Q: is there any time gap before coagulation tests like protein c and s to be done after a young stroke?

Not really: Just get them done before they start you on anticoagulatiom.

Q: my blood test :coagulation pt=12.9-control=13.5-ratio=.95-index=104.6(percent)-inr value=.95 so is that good or bad and is there relation to my liver?

Normal : That is a normal value -- do you have an enlarged liver ? Because.

Q: just read that dvts can be caused by hyper coagulation in the body due to cancer. what blood tests detect cancer? what type of cancer can cause clots?

No specific test.: There is not a cancer test. There are cancer markers that we look at to determine the course of treatment with a person with cancer.

Q: anticardiolipin igm low-med positive 29 u/ml. hematologist is unconcerned as all other coagulation tests were normal and does not want me back for 6 months. is this concerning?

: Level below 40 is likely not consistent with APS unless you have other clinical feature(s) which strongly suggests this syndrome.

Q: 5w pregnant following fertility treatment.received clexan to help implantation (no coagulation problems according to tests). when to stop clexan?

Discuss with doctor: It is not typical to receive Clexan (Enoxaparin) simply for fertility treatment. I would discuss with the prescribing doctor so that you are following the exact guidelines he or she recommended

Question 1

hi,i am in my 33 weeks of pregnancy and my gynaecologist told me to have coagulation profile done after 2 weeks and get report.why is this test done?

Accepted Answer

Unclear : That is not a typical test to be done during this gestational age. I would ask the doctor ordering the test to clarify for you the reasons for it.

Question 2

what types of drugs an foods interfere with the coagulation test of prothrombin time?

Accepted Answer

Depends on : Circumstances.  In a normal person, usual drugs and foods do not affect pt measurably.  In patients on warfarin, foods both prolong pt, e.g., grapefruit, or shorten it, e.g., green leafy vegetables.  Many drugs affect pt, e.g., birth control pills, isoniazid, anti-fungals, antibiotics,  and many other drugs metabolized through cytochrome p450 system, and barbiturates and alcohol.

Question 3

why is lee-white coagulation test rarely done now a days?

Accepted Answer

Better test avail.: It is not used these days because the APTT (activated partial thromboplatiin time) is more accurate to measure coagulation problems in the intrinsic pathway.

Question 4

what blood tests would i need to determine if my blood coagulation is normal? or if it is thick from hereditary issues or medical issues.

Accepted Answer

Many tests: I would start with PTT,  PT/INR and  plattelets.  For the hereditary clotting disorders there are many tests and unless you have had a clot they are probably not necessary. If people in your family have had blood clots then find out what disorder they have and you can be tested for that. Testing for all possible clotting disorders is extremely expensive.

Question 5
