Coagulopathy Coagulopathy (also called a clotting disorder) is a condition in which the blood’s ability to coagulate (form clots) is impaired.oagulopathy may be caused by reduced levels or absence of blood-clotting proteins, known as clotting factors or coagulation factors. Genetic disorders, such as hemophilia and Von Willebrand's disease, can cause a reduction in clotting factors.

Hemophilia 1 Hemophilia is one of a group of inherited bleeding disorders that cause abnormal or exaggerated bleeding and poor blood clotting.  Hemophilia A and B are inherited in an X-linked recessive genetic pattern, so males are commonly affected while females are usually carriers of the disease.

Platelet Disorders Adhesion Disorders. An adhesion disorder is the result of the platelets not being able to stick to the wall of the damaged blood vessel to form a plug and stop the bleeding.

Information About Other Platelet Disorders DIC is the abnormal formation of small blood clots within the blood vessels. This process consumes clotting factors and platelets resulting in a reduced platelet count and increased bleeding. DIC can result from a variety of infections, traumas, diseases, and some drugs.

- A blood clot, also known as a thrombus, is a coagulative mass of red blood cells, platelets, and fibers that forms in response to tissue injury. Parts of it can break off, travel through the body, and block blood flow to organs, causing ischemia (tissue damage due to lack of oxygen). Totally different topics.

Coagulation Blood coagulation pathways in vivo showing the central role played by thrombin. Coagulation (also known as clotting) is the process by which blood changes from a liquid to a gel, forming a blood clot. It potentially results in hemostasis, the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel, followed by repair.

Coagulation Disorders Coagulation disorders deal with disruption of the body's ability to control blood clotting. The most commonly known coagulation disorder is hemophilia, a condition in which patients bleed for long periods of time before clotting. There are other coagulation disorders with a variety of causes.here are a number of other causes of DIC, and it is not commonly understood why or how these various disorders can lead to the coagulation problem. What the underlying causes of DIC have in common is some factor that affects proteins, platelets, or other clotting factors and processes.

Thrombophilia Thrombophilia (sometimes hypercoagulability or a prothrombotic state) is an abnormality of blood coagulation that increases the risk of thrombosis (blood clots in blood vessels).

Bleeding Disorders Hemophilia is a rare, typically inherited, bleeding disorder that can range from mild to severe, depending on how much clotting factor is present in the blood. Hemophilia is classified as Type A or Type B, based on which type of clotting factor is lacking (factor VIII in Type A and factor IX in Type B).Hemophilia results from a genetic defect found on the X chromosome.emophilia is a rare, typically inherited, bleeding disorder that can range from mild to severe, depending on how much clotting factor is present in the blood.

Genetic Clotting Disorders The Prothrombin Mutation. The prothrombin mutation is the second most common genetic clotting disorder. Almost all children with the prothrombin mutation have one gene (a characteristic passed down from a child’s parent or parents) that is affected. It is uncommon for a child to have both genes affected by the mutation.

Haemophilia Haemophilia, also spelled hemophilia, is a mostly inherited genetic disorder that impairs the body's ability to make blood clots, a process needed to stop bleeding.[2][3] This results in people bleeding longer after an injury, easy bruising, and an increased risk of bleeding inside joints or the brain.

United States The coconut palm tree grows in hot areas. It likes frost free areas, and grows in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Pacific region. The tree grows near seas in these areas so the roots can find moisture. In the United States it is found only in Hawaii, the Southern tip of Florida, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

Depression Coagulation Factor Deficiency or Dysfunction. A bleeding disorder may be due to a lack of one or more clotting factors or the result of factors that do not function properly. Deficiency or dysfunction of coagulation factors may have genetic causes (inherited) or may be the result of another disease or condition. The following are a few examples: Inherited.

Definitions &Translations Coagulation is the 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.

Women are especially affected by von WIllebrand disease during menses. Von Willebrand disease is classified into three different types (Types 1, 2, and 3), based on the levels of von Willebrand factor and factor VIII activity in the blood.

Bleeding Disorders Bleeding Disorders. Bleeding disorders are a group of conditions that result when the blood cannot clot properly. In normal clotting, platelets, a type of blood cell, stick together and form a plug at the site of an injured blood vessel.on Willebrand disease is an inherited condition that results when the blood lacks functioning von Willebrand factor, a protein that helps the blood to clot and also carries another clotting protein, factor VIII.

- Clotting disorders are a group of conditions in which people have excessive clotting. These disorders may be diagnosed in childhood, but are usually identified during the teen years and young adulthood. They are often genetic, meaning they are inherited and present at birth.

TTP thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. A rare, life-threatening disease marked by widespread aggregation of platelets throughout the body, neurological dysfunction, and renal insufficiency. The disease is triggered by a deficiency of an enzyme that cleaves von Willebrand factor (a blood clotting protein). This deficiency results in blood clots in small blood vessels throughout the body.
