Coagulation Screening Panel Interpretation (Coagulation Panel)

A coagulation screening panel is a vital diagnostic tool. It assesses blood clotting (hemostasis) via PT, aPTT, & platelet count, revealing bleeding or clotting risks.

Antibody screening mixes patient plasma with red blood cells to detect unexpected antibodies. Agglutination indicates possible antibodies, requiring further identification for safe blood transfusions
