    What is a Protein C Functional Test?

    The Protein C Functional Test is a blood test used to evaluate the activity of protein C. Protein C is a glycoprotein that is also an important anticoagulant (a factor that regulates the clotting of blood). It plays a key role in preventing excessive blood clotting. Protein C works by inactivating specific clotting factors, helping to maintain a balanced clotting system.

    This test is often performed when there is a suspicion of abnormal clotting or a potential protein C deficiency, either inherited or acquired, which can lead to conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE). The results help guide the diagnosis and management of clotting disorders.

    If you live in Bangalore and have symptoms of protein C deficiency or a bleeding disorder, schedule a Protein C Functional test at home in Bangalore conveniently.
