Hemostasis

The process of stopping bleeding, involving a complex cascade of events to form a blood clot and prevent blood loss.

Anticoagulants

Substances that prevent blood clotting. They are used to prevent and treat blood clots.

Hemophilia A

A genetic disorder characterized by deficiency in clotting factor VIII, leading to excessive bleeding.
