Clotting disorders can cause an abnormal amount of bleeding when you cut yourself. The blood moving through your vessels shouldn't clot. If such clots form, they can travel through your bloodstream, to your heart, lungs, and brain. This can cause severe issues, even death. Testing can help your doctor measure your risk of excessive bleeding or developing clots somewhere in your blood vessels.

Coagulation tests measure your blood's ability to clot, and how long it takes to coagulate. These tests measure various proteins and how they function. There are many types of coagulation tests. These include complete blood count, thrombin time, factor assay, fibrinogen level, prothrombin time, platelet count, and bleeding time. Coagulation tests are presented the same way as most blood tests. Some conditions that can cause coagulation problems include liver disease, thrombophilia, and hemophilia.

Coagulation studies.

The evaluation of an effective response of a cryoprecipitate transfusion is assessed by monitoring coagulation studies and fibrinogen levels.
