Factor X111 Activity Functional, Plasma

Description

The Factor XIII Activity Functional test measures the activity of Factor XIII in plasma. Factor XIII is crucial for clot stabilization, the final step in the coagulation process. This test is essential for diagnosing Factor XIII deficiency, a rare bleeding disorder. Abnormal results can indicate an increased risk of bleeding, poor wound healing, or recurrent miscarriages. The test helps in identifying the cause of unexplained bleeding tendencies and guides appropriate treatment, including Factor XIII replacement therapy when necessary.
