The Protein C Antigen test is a blood test used to measure the amount of protein C, a natural anticoagulant that helps regulate blood clotting. Protein C plays a crucial role in preventing excessive clot formation within blood vessels.
Low levels of protein C may increase the risk of abnormal blood clots (thrombosis), which can lead to conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism. This deficiency may be inherited or acquired due to certain medical conditions.
This test is often used in combination with other coagulation tests to evaluate clotting disorders and assess the risk of thrombosis. It also helps in diagnosing inherited or acquired protein C deficiency.
The purpose of this test is to
- To measure protein C levels in the blood
- To assess blood clotting function
- To detect risk of thrombosis
- To diagnose protein C deficiency
- To support evaluation of coagulation disorders
