coagulation，thrombosis

PT means prothrombin time in medicine, and APTT means activated partial thromboplastin time in medicine. The blood coagulation function of the human body is very important. If the blood coagulation function is abnormal, it may lead to thrombosis or bleeding, which may seriously endanger the life of the patient. Clinical monitoring of PT and APTT values can be used as a standard for the use of some anticoagulant drugs in clinical practice. If the measured values are too high, it means that the dose of anticoagulant drugs needs to be reduced, otherwise bleeding will easily occur.
