Factor VIII Inhibitor Profile, Technical Interpretation
Useful For
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Detecting the presence and titer of a specific factor inhibitor directed against coagulation factor VIII.
This test is not useful for the detection of a lupus-like circulating anticoagulant inhibitor, a nonspecific circulating anticoagulant, or other inhibitors that are not specific for coagulation factors.
Testing Algorithm
Delineates situations when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.

Clinical Information

Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitors are IgG antibodies directed against coagulation FVIII that typically result in development of potentially life-threatening hemorrhage. These antibodies may develop in 1 of 4 different patient populations:
-Patients with congenital FVIII deficiency (hemophilia A) in response to therapeutic infusions of factor VIII concentrate
-Elderly nonhemophiliac patients (not previously factor VIII deficient)
-Women in postpartum period
-Patients with other autoimmune illnesses
Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

Day(s) Performed
Outlines the days the test is performed. This field reflects the day that the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means that assays are performed multiple times during the day.
