3.2 The Growing Importance of Blood Coagulation Testing

Against the background of an increasingly aging global population, the incidence of thrombotic and hemostatic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, remains high. The coagulation testing can not only provide guidance for the safe use of antithrombotic drugs for cardiovascular diseases but also play an indispensable role in the diagnosis of bleeding disorders. Accurate diagnosis of bleeding disorders requires a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s bleeding history, family history, physical examination, and laboratory tests. As one of the three routines of laboratory tests, coagulation testing can provide an important basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of bleeding and thrombotic diseases, with increasing medical value. Clinically, a high requirement for the quality and efficiency of coagulation test is proposed.
