    What Is an Antithrombin III (ATIII), Plasma Test?

    The Antithrombin (AT) 3 blood test measures the levels of the antithrombin 3 protein in the blood, which is essential for regulating blood clotting. It is typically conducted to assess unexplained or recurrent abnormal clotting, often seen in conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE).

    A deficiency in antithrombin 3 can increase the risk of severe blood clots. There are two forms of AT deficiency: type 1 (low production) and type 2 (normal production, but reduced function). The test is vital for diagnosing AT deficiency and guiding the right treatment.

    For those in Delhi, an Antithrombin 3 test at home can be scheduled for individuals concerned about clotting.

    Antithrombin III (ATIII), Plasma Test Parameters

    This test measures the levels of the clotting factor protein, antithrombin 3, in the blood.

    Antithrombin is a protein that controls blood clotting by inhibiting thrombin and other clotting factors, playing an essential role in preventing the formation of excessive clots and maintaining a balance between clotting and bleeding. Antithrombin deficiency, often caused by genetic mutations, raises the risk of abnormal blood clots, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism. Though rare, this condition can lead to severe complications if left unmanaged.

    • Who Should Get an Antithrombin 3 Test?

    The Antithrombin 3 test is suggested for individuals with unexplained or recurrent blood clots, a family history of antithrombin deficiency, or early-onset deep vein thrombosis. It is also advisable for patients with resistance to anticoagulant treatments like heparin, or those undergoing assessment for clotting disorders.

    • Cautions Before Taking an Antithrombin 3 Test

    If you have had recent blood clots or are using anticoagulants such as heparin or warfarin, these may lower antithrombin levels and influence the test results. Ensure your doctor is informed of any medications or supplements you are taking.

    Why Take the Antithrombin III (ATIII), Plasma Test?

    The Antithrombin III test helps detect clotting disorders that may increase the risk of abnormal blood clots. It is often recommended if you:

    • Have experienced venous thromboembolism before the age of 50.

    • Have had a pulmonary embolism or a clot in the abdomen or near the brain.

    • Are facing recurrent or unexplained blood clots.

    • Have resistance to anticoagulant medications like heparin.
