What is Activated partial thromboplastin time, APTT ?

APTT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time) measures the time it takes for a patient's blood to clot by activating certain pathways in the coagulation process. It’s typically used in: Diagnosing clotting disorders, such as hemophilia. Monitoring heparin therapy, a common anticoagulant treatment. APTT is often paired with other coagulation tests like PT/INR to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the patient’s clotting status.

Activated partial thromboplastin time, APTT Report Format: Breakdown

Here’s what an ideal APTT report format should include:

Header Information:

  • Patient Details: Full name, Age, Gender, and ID.
  • TAT information: Timestamp for both sample collection and report generation.
  • Doctor's Information: Name of the referral doctor, if applicable.

Test Results Section:

  • Patient's results

    As obvious as it is, a test report should definitely have the patient's test result.

Interpretations

Nowadays, most labs prefer to add interpretations to the reports, making the report more patient-friendly. Labsmart software has interpretations of all routine test pre-filled in the software.

Footer Section:

  • Certifications:

    Display any relevant accreditations (e.g., NABL, ISO), adding to your lab's credibility.

  • Pathologist and technician signature:

    It's mandatory to add a Pathologist and technician signature to the report.

APTT Interpretation

In Labsmart software, this is the inbuilt interpretation for Activated partial thromboplastin time, APTT

Physiological basis
APTT evaluates the intrinsic and common coagulation pathways and adequacy of all coagulation factors except XIII and VII. APTT is commonly used to monitor unfractionated heparin therapy.

Interpretation 
Increased in: Deficiency of any individual coagulation factor except Factors XIII and VII, presence of nonspecific inhibitor (eg, lupus anticoagulant), specific factor inhibitor, von Willebrand disease (PTT may also be normal), hemophilia A and B, DIC. Drugs: heparin, direct thrombin inhibitor (eg, hirudin, argatroban), warfarin.
Decreased in: Hypercoagulable states (eg, increased factor VIII levels).

Comments 
APTT cannot be used to monitor very high doses of heparin (eg, cardiac bypass surgery) because the clotting time is beyond the analytical measurement range of APTT. Heparin contamination is a very common cause of an unexplained prolonged APTT. Heparin neutralization with heparinase may be needed to rule out this possibility.

Importance of adding interpretation to reports:

It's very helpful to add interpretation in reports as it makes the reports more patient friendly and also helpful to doctors in some cases. Moreover, presently most labs prefer providing reports with interpretation. Thus, adding interpretation to report will help your lab stay at par with other competitor labs.

Labsmart pathalogy software is a very good platform. I have been using this software after using multiple pathalogy software’s many of them are costly and difficult to understand but Labsmart software is very easy to understand, it's sms feature , sharing pdf and storing database of patients are the best functions of the software. It is a very cost-friendly and less complicated than other software.
