PTV stands for "prothrombin time and vitamin K," which is a test used to measure how long it takes for blood to clot. It assesses the effectiveness of the coagulation pathway that is dependent on vitamin K, helping to identify potential clotting disorders. Abnormal PTV results can indicate issues such as liver disease, vitamin K deficiency, or the presence of anticoagulants.
