"Everything else is normal? What about vitamin K? And the DIC test?" Liu Banxia asked after reviewing the test report for a while.
"Everything else is normal, vitamin K levels are normal, and DIC has been ruled out," Xu Yino nodded.
Liu Banxia's brows furrowed even more tightly. APTT is the activated partial thromboplastin time, Liu Banxia mused. An increase of seven seconds is somewhat awkward. Clinically, it needs to exceed ten seconds to be significant. But considering the patient's current wound seepage, it's very likely related to this. An increased APTT is often caused by low levels of factors VIII, IX, or XI. And low levels of these factors often indicate hemophilia, especially since the patient's vitamin K levels are normal.
Picking up the patient's file, Liu Banxia reviewed the pre-operative examination results again. Even though he had already looked them over, the results were still normal, all within the acceptable range.
