Overview

Initial screening blood investigations for any child with suspected bleeding disorder include platelet count, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and fibrinogen test. Chorionic villus sampling at 11-14 weeks of gestation can be performed for the genetic diagnosis of hemophilia.
