Micro-clots have been observed in the blood of Long Covid patients, with evidence showing increased risk of blood clotting events after Covid infection. These fibrinogen-amyloid-rich micro clots may contribute to various pathogenic mechanisms and symptoms.

In the one year after Covid infection, health records from the United States showed a 52% increase in stroke, a 66% increase in ischemic heart diseases, and an overall increased risk of thromboembolism events (including Deep Vein Thrombosis, and Pulmonary Embolism) of 139%.

This test evaluates key coagulation markers including Prothrombin Time, APTT, and Fibrinogen, which collectively shed light on how quickly your blood clots and the balance of clotting factors in your system.

Blood clotting disorders can manifest as persistent fatigue, brain fog, or more severe complications such as stroke, ischemic heart disease, or pulmonary embolism. Regular monitoring of blood clotting dynamics can help clinicians and healthcare practitioners identify at risk individuals allowing preventative action to be taken.

Markers Included In The Test

APTT: Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) is a blood test that measures how long it takes for your blood to clot. Abnormal APTT can indicate clotting problems, which can either increase the risk of bleeding or thrombotic events..

FBC with 5 part Diff: A Full Blood Count (FBC) with 5 part differential (Diff) provides an overview of your health by measuring red and white blood cells and platelets. It further breaks down the white blood cells into five different types: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. This additional breakdown provides more detailed information and can help identify specific types of illnesses, such as infections, autoimmune diseases, or blood disorders among others.

Fibrinogen: Fibrinogen is a protein in your blood that is essential for clotting. When you get a cut or injury, fibrinogen is converted into fibrin threads that help to stop bleeding by forming a clot over the wound. High levels can indicate an increased risk of excessive clotting, while low levels can increase the risk of bleeding disorders. Fibrinogen levels also rise in response to inflammation or tissue injury.

Prothrombin Time: Prothrombin Time (PT) is a blood test that measures how long it takes for your blood to clot. It's used to assess the risk of excessive clotting or bleeding. Shorter PT can indicate a higher risk for clotting problems, while prolonged times may suggest a bleeding disorder or a risk for excessive bleeding.
