PROTEIN C ANTIGEN Test
Components: Protein C Antigen Test
Price: 2040.0 AED
Sample Condition: 3mL whole blood in 1 Blue Top (Sodium Citrate) tube. Mix thoroughly by inversion. Transport to Lab within 4 hours. If this is not possible, make PPP within 1 hour of collection as follows: Centrifuge sample at 3600rpm for 15 min. and transfer supernatant to a clean plastic tube. Centrifuge this supernatant again at 3600 rpm for 15 min. and finally transfer the supernatant (PPP) to 1 labelled clean plastic screw-capped vial. FREEZE IMMEDIATELY. Ship frozen. DO NOT THAW.
Duly filled Coagulation Requisition Form (Form 15) AND Test Send Out Consent Form is mandatory.
Report Delivery: Sample by 7th of the month; Report after 2-3 weeks
Method: Immunoassay
Test type: Disorders of Coagulation
Doctor: Hematologist
Test Department: OS
Pre Test Information: Duly filled Coagulation Requisition Form (Form 15) AND Test Send Out Consent Form is mandatory.
Test Details:
The Protein C Antigen Test is a laboratory test that measures the level of Protein C in the blood. Protein C is a natural anticoagulant protein that helps regulate blood clotting. This test is usually ordered to evaluate the risk of blood clotting disorders, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE). It can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of anticoagulant therapy or to investigate the cause of recurrent blood clots.
The test involves drawing a blood sample and measuring the concentration of Protein C in the plasma. The results are usually reported as a percentage of normal levels. Low levels of Protein C can indicate an increased risk of blood clotting, while high levels may suggest a decreased risk.
The test is typically performed in conjunction with other clotting tests, such as the Protein S test or the Activated Protein C Resistance test, to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the clotting system.
