Prothrombin Time Tests are used for various purposes, such as monitoring anticoagulant therapy, assessing clotting disorders, evaluating liver function, and before surgical procedures to determine a patient's risk of bleeding.
A blood sample is collected from a patient and mixed with a reagent called thromboplastin and calcium in a laboratory setting. The time it takes for the blood to clot is recorded, and the results are typically reported as an International Normalized Ratio (INR).
