The primary components of a coagulation profile include: - [Prothrombin Time (PT)](https://): Measures the time it takes for blood to clot, assessing the extrinsic and common pathways of coagulation. - [Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT)](https://): Evaluates the intrinsic and common pathways, indicating deficiencies in clotting factors. - [Fibrinogen Level](https://): Measures the amount of fibrinogen, a key protein in blood clot formation. - [Platelet Count](https://): Determines the number of platelets, which are critical for clot formation. - [D-dimer](https://): A test that can help diagnose thrombosis, although it is not routinely included in a standard coagulation profile.
