About the Prothrombin Time (PT) with INR & PTT
This panel combines the prothrombin time (PT), the International Normalized Ratio (INR), and the partial thromboplastin time (PTT) to evaluate how well blood clots. The PT and INR assess the extrinsic and common clotting pathways and are used to monitor warfarin, while the PTT assesses the intrinsic and common pathways and is often used to monitor heparin. Together they help investigate bleeding, bruising, and clotting disorders and are checked before some procedures.
What this test measures
- Prothrombin Time (PT) Measures clot formation through the extrinsic and common pathways.
- International Normalized Ratio (INR) A standardized form of the PT used to compare results and monitor warfarin.
- Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT) Measures the intrinsic and common pathways and is often used to monitor heparin.
Who this test may be right for
- People taking warfarin, heparin, or similar anticoagulants
- Individuals with unexplained bleeding or easy bruising
- Patients with a suspected bleeding or clotting disorder
- People with liver disease affecting clotting factors
- Patients being assessed before surgery or invasive procedures
Before your visit
- Report all anticoagulant and other medications
- Avoid major dietary changes and excess alcohol before testing unless advised
- No fasting is usually required
- Collect at the time recommended for monitoring your therapy
Understanding your results
A prolonged PT or high INR can indicate a bleeding tendency or the effect of warfarin, while a prolonged PTT may reflect heparin therapy or a factor deficiency in the intrinsic pathway. Abnormal results are interpreted together and with your medications, liver function, and symptoms. Discuss your PT, INR, and PTT results and any treatment adjustments with a healthcare provider.
