Blood clotting cascade (Gallus gallus)

Jump to: navigation, search

Coagulation is a complex process by which blood forms clots. It is an important part of hemostasis (the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel), wherein a damaged blood vessel wall is covered by a platelet and fibrin-containing clot to stop bleeding and begin repair of the damaged vessel. Disorders of coagulation can lead to an increased risk of bleeding (hemorrhage) or clotting (thrombosis). Source: [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation)
