ABSTRACT:

Objective: The present study was designed to find out HbA1 levels and coagulation profile parameters like activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT) and prothrombin time (PT) in diabetic patients. Study Design: A Cross-Sectional Study. Place and Duration: In the West medicine and Blood transfusion department of Mayo Hospital Lahore for One year duration from July 2017 to July 2018. Methods: For this purpose 50 cases of noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and 30 controls with equal male to female ratio were taken. Results: The coagulation parameters (PT, APTT, TT) did not show significant difference with control. HbA1 levels were significantly raised in diabetic patients when compared with control group. Conclusion: It is concluded that coagulation parameters have no association with diabetes melitus. Key words: HBA1, coagulation parameters.
