Abstract: Introduction The intricate relationship between blood group characteristics and various physiological processes has been a subject of considerable scientific interest. Among the myriad of physiological phenomena, the association between ABO blood groups and coagulation parameters, such as prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), stands out as a compelling area of investigation. Materials and method This study was a cross sectional survey-based study conducted in the Department of Human Physiology of University of Port Harcourt. The study made use of a sample size of 171 male and female undergraduate medical students of the Niger Delta University, Bayelsa State. A multi-stage (involving stratified and random sampling) sampling technique was used for the study. Results The result indicated that the females had significantly (P<0.05) higher prothrombin time (PT) than their male counterparts, while the males were found to have higher activated prothrombin time (aPPT) than their female counterparts. Again, blood group AB was found to have the highest aPPT, followed by blood group O, then group A while group B had the least. On the other hand, blood group A was found to have the prothrombin time, followed by AB, then group O while group B had the least value. Blood group B was therefore found to have the least prothrombin time and activated prothrombin time among the studied subjects. Conclusion This research has provided valuable insights into the variations in prothrombin time and activated prothrombin time among different ABO blood groups and gender.
