Intrinsic pathway coagulation factor profile, aPTT, partial thromboplastin time, PTT, blood coagulation tests. The aPTT is one of several blood coagulation tests. It measures how long it takes your blood to form a clot. Normally, when one of your blood vessels is damaged, proteins in your blood called clotting factors come together in a certain order to form blood clots and quickly stop bleeding. The aPTT test can be used to look at how well those clotting factors are working.
Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) Test. The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and the partial thromboplastin time (PTT) tests are very similar in nature and are used to test the amount of time taken by blood to clot in a patient being treated with blood-thinning medicines, especially heparin.he APTT test is also performed to detect the possible cause of unusual bleeding or bruising, to screen the deficiency of some blood clotting factor leading to bleeding disorders like hemophilia, to ascertain the blood clotting time before surgery, and to determine the most effective dose of medications like heparin.
