Quickův test koagulace

This could be the meaning of the acronym, but the value certainly is known as "Quick's time" or "prothrombin time".

Quoted from the reference: "Protrombinový čas (anglic. prothrombin time, PT) je také nazýván jako tromboplastinový čas, Quickův test. Jde o laboratorní koagulační test, který monitoruje zevní systém hemokoagulace."

PT

A prothrombin time (PT) test measures how long it takes for a clot to form in a blood sample. The normal range for PT results is 11 to 13.5 seconds. Frequently referred to as "Quickův test" in Czech.

P_QUICK

I would just change the original "P_QTKO" to "P_QUICK" or "P_PT" in the lab results.

Reference:

QT = Quick's Time, KO = coagulation/clotting???

Note from asker:
That's almost certainly what it is; the KO was throwing me off as I thought it might be "krevni obraz"
