Thrombocheck Advanced

What is Thrombocheck Advanced test?

The Thrombocheck Advanced test is a comprehensive thrombophilia screening panel that evaluates a person’s tendency to develop abnormal blood clots (thrombosis). It helps identify both hereditary and acquired causes of hypercoagulability (increased blood clotting).

Parameters Covered: PROTEIN C ACTIVITY, FREE PROTEIN S ANTIGEN LEVELS, ANTI THROMBIN III ACTIVITY (CHROMOGENIC), LUPUS ANTICOAGULANT (BOTH APTT AND RVVT BASED), ANTI CARDIOLIPIN ANTIBODY, FACTOR V LEIDEN, FACTOR VIII LEVEL, HOMOCYSTEINE, ANTI β2 GLYCOPROTEIN 1 IGM, ANTI β2 GLYCOPROTEIN 1 IGG, JAK2 MUTATION

Why consider Thrombocheck Advanced test?

Thrombocheck Advanced test is recommended to:

• Detect risk factors for venous or arterial thrombosis, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE).
• Investigate recurrent miscarriages or pregnancy complications due to clotting disorders.
• Evaluate unexplained blood clots in unusual sites (like brain, abdomen, or upper limbs).
• Assess family history of thrombosis or known genetic clotting disorders.
• Monitor individuals with long-term anticoagulant therapy or before major surgeries to assess clotting risk.

Who should get tested for Thrombocheck Advanced test?

Thrombocheck Advanced test is useful for individuals who have or are at risk for:

• Personal or family history of recurrent blood clots or DVT/PE.
• Unexplained miscarriages, stillbirths, or infertility linked to clotting problems.
• Early-onset stroke or heart attack without traditional risk factors.
• Prolonged immobilization, surgery, or oral contraceptive use with suspected clotting issues.
• Autoimmune disorders like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that increase thrombosis risk.

Thrombophilia is a medical condition in which the blood has an increased tendency to form abnormal clots (thrombi) in veins or arteries. These clots can partially or completely block normal blood flow, leading to serious health problems such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), stroke, or recurrent pregnancy loss. Thrombophilia can be inherited (genetic) or acquired (developed later in life).

Types of Thrombophilia

1. Inherited (Genetic) Thrombophilia: Caused by genetic mutations passed from parents to children.
2. Acquired Thrombophilia: Develops later due to medical conditions or external factors.
