| ==Laboratory Findings== | | ==Laboratory Findings== |
| [[Screening]] tests are blood tests that show if the blood is clotting properly. Types of screening tests:
| | Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of hemophilia include: |
| ===Complete Blood Count (CBC)===
| | *Normal prothrombin time (PT) |
| This common test measures the amount of hemoglobin (the red pigment inside [[red blood cells]] that carries oxygen), the size and number of red blood cells and numbers of different types of [[white blood cells]] and [[platelets]] found in blood. The [[CBC]] is normal in people with hemophilia. However, if a person with hemophilia has unusually heavy bleeding or bleeds for a long time, the [[hemoglobin]] and the [[red blood cell]] count can be low.
| | *Normal platelet count |
| ===Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) Test===
| | *Normal bleeding time |
| This test measures how long it takes for blood to clot. It measures the clotting ability of factors VIII (8), IX (9), XI (11), and XII (12). If any of these clotting factors are too low, it takes longer than normal for the blood to clot. The results of this test will show a longer clotting time among people with hemophilia A or B.
| | *Elevated activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) |
| ===Prothrombin Time (PT) Test===
| |
| This test also measures the time it takes for blood to clot. It measures primarily the clotting ability of factors I (1), II (2), V (5), VII (7), and X (10). If any of these factors are too low, it takes longer than normal for the blood to clot. The results of this test will be normal among most people with hemophilia A and B.
| |
| ===Fibrinogen Test===
| |
| This test also helps doctors assess a patient’s ability to form a blood clot. This test is ordered either along with other blood clotting tests or when a patient has an abnormal [[PT]] or [[APTT]] test result, or both. [[Fibrinogen]] is another name for [[clotting factor]] I (1).
| |
| ===Clotting Factor Tests===
| |
| [[Clotting factor]] tests, also called factor assays, are required to diagnose a bleeding disorder. This blood test shows the type of hemophilia and the severity. It is important to know the type and severity in order to create the best treatment plan.
