ZAMORA-GONZALEZ, Yaneth. Tests of coagulation and hemostasis components. Usefulness for diagnosing hemorrhagic diathesis. Rev Cubana Hematol Inmunol Hemoter [online]. 2012, vol.28, n.2, pp.141-150. ISSN 0864-0289.
Coagulogram comprises a set of tests, which explore the participation of all components of hemostasia: vascular endothelium, platelet activity, plasma and fibrinolytic factors. Often, the technical staff finds complex to do these tests, so deepening knowledge, understanding, and interpreting the results of each of these tests should result in strengthening and training of health professionals. This paper describes the main conventional coagulation tests, the beginning and the reference values of each of them, and the possible diseases according to the alteration of the hemostatic system corresponding to the alteration of coagulation, with the aim of providing medical background information for the proper performance and proper interpretation of results.
