APLS testing‡ | 4% (1/27) |
Protein C deficiency§ | 0% (0/24) |
Protein S deficiency§ | 0% (0/24) |

The results of thrombophilia testing among our cohort are described above.
*One patient was heterozygous and 1 patient was homozygous.
†This patient was heterozygous.
‡Testing included assessment for anticardiolipin antibodies, beta-2 glycoprotein I antibodies, and lupus anticoagulant. The 1 positive patient was subsequently found to be negative on repeat testing.
§Tests were excluded if sent in the context of acute thrombosis or while a patient was on warfarin (for proteins C and S).
