Description
Excerpted from the website:
- APS is an autoimmune disorder in which the body recognizes certain normal components of blood and/or cell membranes as foreign substances and produces antibodies against them. Patients with these antibodies may experience blood clots, including heart attacks and strokes, and miscarriages. APS may occur in people with systemic lupus erythematosus, other autoimmune disease, or in otherwise healthy individuals.
- Along with evaluating clinical evidence, the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (anticardiolipin, anti-ß2GPI and lupus anticoagulant) is essential to the diagnosis and classification of APS.
