Secondary ID
A test code used for billing and in test definitions created prior to November 2011
NY State Approved

Useful For
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Confirming or excluding presence of lupus anticoagulant (LAC) distinguishing LAC from specific coagulation factor inhibitors and nonspecific inhibitors

Profile Information
A profile is a group of laboratory tests that are ordered and performed together under a single Mayo Test ID. Profile information lists the test performed, inclusive of the test fee, when a profile is ordered and includes reporting names and individual availability.

|---|---|---|---|
| PTC | Prothrombin Time (PT), P | Yes, (order PT) | Yes |
| APTTB | Activated Partial Thrombopl Time, P | Yes, (order APT) | Yes |
| DRVT | Dilute Russells Viper Venom Time, P | No | Yes |
| CCC1 | Interpretation | No | Yes |
Reflex Tests
Lists test(s) that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial test(s)

Testing Algorithm
Delineates situation(s) when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
Initial testing includes: prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and dilute Russell's viper venom time (DRVVT).
If the PT, APTT, and DRVVT are normal, a computer-generated interpretive comment indicating no evidence of a lupus anticoagulant will be provided.
If PT is > or =14 seconds, PT mix will be performed.
If APTT is >36 seconds, APTT mix will be performed.
If APTT mix is >36 seconds with no evidence of heparin in sample, platelet neutralization procedure (PNP) will be performed.
If DRVVT ratio is > or =1.2, DRVVT mix will be performed.
If DRVVT mix ratio is > or =1.2, DRVVT confirm will be performed.
If PT, APTT, or DRVVT are prolonged, thrombin time (TT) will be performed.
If TT is >23 seconds, reptilase will be performed.
If appropriate, coagulation factor assays, fibrinogen, D-dimer, Staclot LA, and soluble fibrin monomer will be performed to clarify a significant abnormality in the screening clotting times.
If factor VIII result is <55%, the factor VIII inhibitor screen may be performed along with the Bethesda titering assay, if indicated.
If any test results are abnormal, all results will be reviewed by a coagulation consultant and a Special Coagulation Consultant Interpretation will be provided.
