TT

TT, or Thrombin Time, is a blood test that measures how quickly your blood clots after adding a special substance. It helps doctors assess the efficiency of your body's final step in the clotting process, mainly involving fibrin formation. If the TT is prolonged, it may indicate issues like low fibrinogen levels, the presence of blood-thinning medications, or abnormal blood clotting factors. This test assists in diagnosing bleeding disorders or monitoring treatments that affect clotting, providing valuable information about your blood’s ability to form clots properly.
