Factor II Inhibitor Profile, Technical Interpretation
Use
The test provides a technical interpretation of inhibitor to factor II testing. Coagulation factor inhibitors can develop in patients who are congenitally deficient in a specific factor due to replacement therapy, spontaneously due to various medical conditions such as postpartum state, immunologic disorders, certain antibiotic therapies, some malignancies, and in older populations. The inhibitors of factor VIII coagulant activity are the most commonly occurring specific factor inhibitors.

Limitations
Occasionally, a potent lupus-like anticoagulant may cause false-positive testing for a specific factor inhibitor, such as factors VIII or IX. Factors indicative of such inhibitors may not be recognized by this assay directly.
