[[Coagulation]] tests and [[coagulation]] [[Assay|assays]] are the [[Gold standard (test)|gold standard]] for the [[diagnosis]] of hemophilia. Prolonged [[Activated partial thromboplastin time|activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)]], normal [[Prothrombin time|prothrombin time (PT)]], prolonged [[Bleeding time|bleeding time (BT)]], and normal [[fibrinogen]] concentration are [[Diagnosis|diagnostic]] of hemophilia. [[Coagulation]] tests should be followed by measuring the clotting factors level by [[coagulation]] assays. Once the [[coagulation]] discrepancy has been established, individual clotting factor [[assay]] can be performed to determine the [[Deficiency|deficient]]/absent clotting factor. Bethesda assay can be performed in the case of acquired hemophilia to detect and quantify [[antibodies]] directed against [[factor VIII]].

Overview

Coagulation tests and coagulation assays are the gold standard for the diagnosis of hemophilia. Prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), normal prothrombin time (PT), prolonged bleeding time (BT), and normal fibrinogen concentration are diagnostic of hemophilia. Coagulation tests should be followed by measuring the clotting factors level by coagulation assays. Once the coagulation discrepancy has been established, individual clotting factor assay can be performed to determine the deficient/absent clotting factor. Bethesda assay can be performed in the case of acquired hemophilia to detect and quantify antibodies directed against factor VIII.

Diagnostic Study of Choice

The following result of the coagulation tests and coagulation assays is confirmatory of hemophilia:
