normal value : 10-15 sec.
The INR has basically replaced the prothrombin time, or PT.
The normal prothrombin time is 11-15 seconds, although there is some variation depending on the source of the thromboplastin used in the test.
prothrombin time, hematocrit
The normal prothrombin time (PT) typically ranges from 11 to 13.5 seconds, reflecting the time it takes for blood to clot. Prothrombin levels can be expressed in International Normalized Ratio (INR), with a normal INR range generally between 0.8 and 1.1 for individuals not on anticoagulant therapy. Values outside this range may indicate clotting disorders or the need for further medical evaluation. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized assessment and interpretation of results.
PT means prothrombin time; 18.3 sounds too slow. Normal is about 9
prothrombin time
It decreases synthesis of thromboxane A2 and prostaglandins to increase bleeding time. It does not affect PT or PTT. Prothrombin time unaffected!
Vitamin K corrects prothrombin in the setting of biliary obstruction but not of hepatocellular damage.
Prothrombin time (PT) measures the activity of coagulation factors in the tissue factor pathway of the coagulation cascade.
