APTT 160

High APTT level of 160 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) of 160 can signal clotting disorders or imbalances in the body’s coagulation system. A result of 160 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.

  • 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.

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.
