Antithrombin III Activity

Laboratory
Quest Diagnostics
Test code
216
Specimen
Plasma
Fasting
Not stated as required

What the laboratory says this test is for

Aids in the detection of hypercoagulable states associated with venous thrombotic episodes. May be useful in patients who appear to be hyporesponsive to heparin.

Thrombophilia Screen II Inherited

Laboratory
Quest Diagnostics
Test code
11327
Specimen
Plasma
Fasting
Not stated as required

What the laboratory says this test is for

Factor V Leiden (R506Q) is the most common genetic determinant for hereditary venous thrombosis. Another DNA variant, the HR2 allele, has been associated with a 3-4 fold increased risk to venous thrombosis when it occurs in the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation.

Antithrombin III Activity with Reflex to Antithrombin III Antigen

Laboratory
Quest Diagnostics
Test code
8267
Specimen
Plasma
Fasting
Not stated as required

What the laboratory says this test is for

Aids in characterization of Antithrombin deficiency (AT, previously referred to as Antithrombin III) which is associated with increased thrombotic risk. Type I deficiency is characterized by reduction in activity and antigen levels simultaneously. With type II deficiency, activity levels are lower in comparison to the antigen levels (dysfunctional protein). Acquired deficiency, more common than inherited defects, can occur due to: liver disease, nephrotic syndrome, heparin therapy, disseminated intra- vascular coagulation (DIC), sepsis, and L-asparaginase chemotherapy.Anticoagulant Interference: Expected impact by therapeutic levels (potential interference depends upon drug concentration): Warfarin: no effect; Heparin (UFH or LMWH): no effect to decrease (UFH may decrease levels physiologically but no assay interference); Dabigatran or Argatroban (Thrombin Inhibitors): may falsely increase activity levels; Rivaroxaban, Apixaban, Edoxaban (Factor Xa Inhibitors): no effect.
