General Information

Fibrinogen | Laboratory research

A fibrinogen test is a blood coagulation test that measures the level of fibrinogen in the blood.

Fibrinogen is a protein produced in the liver that is essential for blood clotting. Normal levels are usually between 2–4 g/L (200–400 mg/dL); low levels increase the risk of bleeding, while high levels indicate inflammation or a risk of thrombosis.

Fibrinogen (Factor I) - Glycoprotein, which is a precursor of fibrin, and fibrin, in turn, forms the basis of thrombus. Fibrinogen is the first factor in the blood coagulation system. Blood plasma contains it at a concentration of 200-400 mg / dl (254 g / l). It is synthesized in the liver at a rate of 1,75-5,0 g / day. The half-life is 3-5 days.

When should we take the test?

  • Prognosis of the development of cardiovascular diseases, assessment of the risk of thrombotic complications (with lipid profile, CRP, homocysteine);
  • Assessment of the activity of the inflammatory process;
  • Assessment of hemostasis disorders (bleeding or thrombosis);
  • Preoperative examination and postoperative period;
  • Examination during pregnancy in different trimesters;
  • Congenital or acquired fibrinogen deficiency (A- / hypo- / dysfibrinogenemia);
  • Monitoring of thrombolytic therapy.

Possible interpretation of the results

Fibrinogen levels increase:

  • Inflammatory infectious diseases;
  • Cardiovascular diseases;
  • Atherosclerosis;
  • Subacute, chronic disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome;
  • Surgical interventions, injuries, burns;
  • Collagenoses;
  • Kidney disease (pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis, HUS, nephrotic syndrome);
  • Neoplasms;
  • smoke.

Fibrinogen levels decrease:

  • DIC syndrome;
  • Congenital dysfibrinogenemia;
  • Due to immaturity of the hemostatic system in newborns;
  • Severe liver damage (cirrhosis, toxic or food poisoning);
  • Thrombolytic therapy.

Reference values

The fibrinogen test is essential for assessing the blood clotting system. Low levels indicate a risk of bleeding, while high levels indicate inflammation and thrombosis.
