What is the Clotting Time (CT) Test?

The amount of time it takes for blood to clot in a person is known as clotting time. The clotting factors affect a person's clotting time. Because of this, blood clotting factors are vital in bleeding and clotting. The signs of blood clotting problems include a delay in blood clotting and a longer bleeding duration. 8-15 minutes (Normal Clotting Time).

Why done? 

• To detect if the person has haemophilia or von Willebrand's disease.
• Clotting Time is recommended to detect bleeding disorders caused by a lack of clotting factors.

The patient must be present in the lab while the Clotting Time is determined.

• A nurse or doctor administers the test. The nurse/doctor cleans the puncture site using an antiseptic to prevent infection. The arm is inflated with a pressure cuff.
• The cuff is on the upper arm. Then two minor cuts are made on the lower arm. These cuts leak a little. These are tiny cuts. Then the cuff is removed.
• A timer measures the bleeding and clotting times. The blood from the cuts is wiped every 30 seconds till the bleeding stops. After the surgery, the cuts are wrapped.
