Coagulation Screen

Coagulation Screen


The Coagulation Screen evaluates your blood’s ability to clot properly by measuring important clotting factors. It can help detect bleeding disorders, clotting abnormalities, or monitor the effectiveness of anticoagulant (blood-thinning) therapy such as warfarin. This test is often used before surgical procedures to ensure safe clotting function. It also provides valuable insight into liver health, as the liver produces many clotting proteins.

Parameters Covered

Fibrinogen
Inter norm ratio
Prothrombin Time
Partial Thromboplastin Time

What the Test Measures

This test measures the time it takes for your blood to clot and evaluates key clotting factors in your bloodstream. It helps identify bleeding disorders, clotting risks, and monitors patients on blood-thinning medications. Abnormal results may indicate clotting disorders, liver conditions, or medication effects.
