Summary Introduction

To answer: The alterations in the vascular system that result in abnormalities of hemostasis.

Introduction: The process of prevention of loss of blood or arrest of bleeding during blood vessel injury is referred as hemostasis. This process is accomplished through complex interactions between the vessel wall, platelets, and the plasma coagulation proteins. Excessive and inadequate hemostasis leads to inappropriate clotting or thrombosis and bleeding.
