misleading image
[edit]The image that hints that INR is equal to PT/PTT... which is very misleading and I took it down.

It would be helpful if there was a disambiguation page for PTT, because now it directs you to something different.

Too technical?
[edit]I don't think that it's too technical. It doesn't go into details, and doesn't explain the technicalities of the test, or the specific interpretations that could be associated with its different readings. I'll remove the template. —Hexafluoride Ping me if you need help, or post on my talk 16:48, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
Figures
[edit]The article says "reference range is between 30 seconds and 50 s", but (at least in the UK), a figure (ratio) is quoted as, for example, "borderline ised: 1.26" or "therapeutic range for APTT ratio is 1.5 to 2.5." ([1]). Can someone explain this usage in the article, please? what is meant by "therapeutic range"? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:16, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
Why FIX is not included in the list PTT measures?
[edit]Is this factor being left outside for some reason? otherwise it should be included because it is part of the intrinsic pathway FNVTSAC (talk) 19:30, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
