Platelet factor 3 function test

Platelet factor 3 function test detects platelet factor 3 (PF3) and detects its functionality. Platelet factor 3 (PF3) is a membrane surface phospholipid formed during platelet activation and is an important component of human coagulation. It is a fixed site of coagulation factor V, which accelerates the production of thromboplastin and promotes the coagulation process. Basic Information Specialist classification: growth and development examination classification: blood examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Tips: Try to reduce the amount of exercise before blood draw, do not eat food, keep fasting, you can drink a small amount of water, the amount of blood is determined according to the different content of the test and the number of items, generally around 2 ~ 20ml, the most Will not exceed 50ml. Normal value Clotting time: 0-5 seconds. Clinical significance Abnormal results: Increased clotting time is seen in the consumption of saturated fatty acids, type II hyperlipidemia, transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, diabetes with blood vessels and atherosclerosis. Reduced in congenital PF3 deficiency, thrombocytopenia, giant platelet syndrome, platelet disease, type I glycogen accumulation, uremia, cirrhosis, essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera, acute and chronic granulocytes Leukemia, myelofibrosis, multiple myeloma, macroglobulinemia, systemic lupus erythematosus, congenital heart disease, aplastic anemia, thrombocytopenic purpura and pernicious anemia. People who need to be examined: people with platelet blood diseases and leukemia symptoms. Low results may be diseases: abnormal platelet procoagulant activity results may be high disease: pediatric platelet release dysfunction disease, pediatric thrombocytopenia, toxic purpura precautions Taboo before the test: Do not eat too greasy, high-protein foods the day before the test, to avoid heavy drinking. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. After 8 pm on the day before the medical examination, you should fast.
