Thrombocytopenia affects your prothrombin time test on your lab results?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No. Bleeding time.: In thrombocytopenia, both prothrombin time (pt) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) are normal. But bleeding time and platelet count are affected. Bleeding time is prolonged and the platelet count is decreased.
