1) Diuretics
2) Corticosteroids
3) Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors
4) Antihypertensive medications

A patient with a deficiency of which coagulation factor will have a prolonged PT and a normal aPTT?
1) Factor II

📝 Explanation:

Factor II (prothrombin) deficiency leads to a prolonged PT (Prothrombin Time) because it is involved in the extrinsic pathway of the coagulation cascade, which is assessed by the PT test. The aPTT (activated Partial Thromboplastin Time) is normal because the intrinsic pathway is not affected.
