    What Is a Protein S Functional Test?

    The Protein S Functional test measures the level of protein S in the blood which identifies protein S deficiency.

    Protein S deficiency is indeed a serious condition that affects the body's ability to regulate blood clotting. It can lead to an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).

    Individuals with this deficiency may experience clotting issues due to a lack of protein S, a natural anticoagulant that helps maintain the balance of the coagulation system. In severe cases, particularly in infants, this can lead to purpura fulminans, a life-threatening condition marked by widespread clotting and subsequent bleeding due to depleted clotting factors.

    While the risk of developing blood clots is higher in those with protein S deficiency, it is also important to note that many individuals with the disorder remain asymptomatic and never experience clotting events. Factors such as age, surgery, immobility, or pregnancy can further increase the likelihood of developing clots.

    If you reside in Bangalore and have symptoms of protein S deficiency, consider getting a Protein S Functional test for early diagnosis and treatment.
