LaboratoryaPTT.factor substitution with 1:1 Pooled Normal Plasma in Platelet poor plasma by Coagulation assay
Definition
Factor sensitive aPTT assays may be used to investigate prolonged conventional aPTT results. Factor sensitive reagents are sensitive to deficiencies in factor VIII, IX, XI and XII. If the factor sensitive aPTT result is prolonged, then further testing, including individual assays for each factor, are performed to determine the specific etiology of the clotting disorder.
