What are normal coagulation levels?
In healthy people an INR of 1.1 or below is considered normal. An INR range of 2.0 to 3.0 is generally an effective therapeutic range for people taking warfarin for disorders such as atrial fibrillation or a blood clot in the leg or lung.
What is a COAG panel?
What is a coagulation profile? A coagulation profile (coags) includes INR, APTT, platelets and fibrinogen. It is a screening test for abnormal blood clotting because it examines the factors most often associated with a bleeding problem.
What labs are in a COAG panel?
Lab Test : Coagulation Profile TEST INFORMATION: Test includes APTT, FIBRINOGEN, PT, Thrombin Time.
What is the normal PT and PTT values?
The reference range of the aPTT is 30-40 seconds. The reference range of the PTT is 60-70 seconds. In patients receiving anticoagulant therapy, the reference range is 1.5-2.5 times the control value in seconds.
What is an abnormal coagulation profile?
An abnormal coagulation profile with high prothrombin time (PT), international normalized Ratio (INR) and PTT usually indicates an associated liver disorder, with cirrhosis and portal hypertension as the etiology of splenomegaly.
What is a high D-dimer level?
What does a high D-dimer test result mean? If your results reveal that you have higher-than-normal levels of D-dimer in your blood, it may mean that you have a blood clotting condition. A D-dimer test can’t determine the type of blood clotting condition you may have or where the blood clot(s) is in your body.
What is a high fibrinogen level?
A normal value for fibrinogen is between 200 and 400 mg/dL. A fibrinogen value of less than 50 mg/dL may mean you’re in danger of bleeding after surgery. A fibrinogen value of more than 700 mg/dL may mean you’re in danger of forming clots that could harm your heart or brain.
What is the normal PTT for heparin?
If you get the test because you’re taking heparin, you’d want your PTT results to be more like 120 to 140 seconds, and your aPTT to be 60 to 80 seconds. If your number is higher than normal, it could mean several things, from a bleeding disorder to liver disease.
What is normal INR value?
What is a normal PT/INR range? Your test result will show different ranges for PT and INRs The normal ranges for clotting are: 11 to 13.5 seconds. INR of 0.8 to 1.1. INR of 2.0 to 3.0 is a general therapeutic range for people taking warfarin.
What is the most common coagulation disorder?
The most common type of hereditary coagulation disorder is hemophilia. Patients with hemophilia can be diagnosed at any age and the age of diagnosis is often associated with how severe the condition is.
