Treatment and symptoms of APTT 159 seconds | Diet for high APTT level 159 seconds

High APTT level of 159 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) of 159 can signal clotting disorders or imbalances in the body’s coagulation system. A result of 159 may reflect issues such as hemophilia, liver disease, or the presence of anticoagulants. APTT evaluates the intrinsic pathway of blood clotting and is crucial in diagnosing bleeding tendencies and monitoring patients on heparin therapy. Significant deviations in this test require immediate clinical attention to prevent bleeding or thrombotic complications. There are many treatment options available, but adjusting your diet should be the first course of action.

Ideal levels of APTT in the blood are approximately 22 - 35 seconds (Men)

Below are the symptoms and treatments associated with high APTT levels:

• Symptoms of High APTT Levels:
• High APTT levels typically indicate a longer clotting time, suggesting a bleeding disorder.
• Symptoms of bleeding disorders may include easy bruising, frequent nosebleeds, excessive menstrual bleeding, or unexplained bleeding from gums or cuts.
• Severe cases of high APTT may lead to internal bleeding or spontaneous bleeding, especially after minor injuries.
• Treatments for High APTT Levels:
• If caused by a clotting factor deficiency, factor replacement therapy may be prescribed (e.g., fresh frozen plasma, clotting factor concentrates).
• If caused by medications like heparin, the dose may need to be adjusted, or alternative treatments may be considered.
• In some cases, vitamin K may be administered to reverse the effects of anticoagulant medications like warfarin.
• Address any underlying conditions (e.g., liver disease, hemophilia, or lupus) contributing to abnormal APTT levels.

What to do after APTT blood test?

If bleeding occurs after your APTT test, raise your arm and apply pressure to the spot for at least 3 minutes. It’s normal to see some bruising after a APTT blood draw. If you feel pain following the APTT test, apply ice wrapped in a towel to the area for 10 minutes. For anything more than mild discomfort, contact your doctor.
