What are the Risks Associated with Abnormal aPTT in Gynecological Patients?
Abnormal aPTT can lead to significant risks in gynecological patients, including:
1. Surgical Complications: Increased risk of bleeding during and after gynecological surgeries. 2. Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH): Increased risk of excessive bleeding after childbirth. 3. Menorrhagia: Heavy menstrual bleeding can lead to anemia and affect quality of life. 4. Thromboembolic Events: In cases of shortened aPTT, there is a risk of developing clots that can lead to conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE).
