Plasma Coagulation incidence of clotting hemolysate

Introduction to blood clotting
Coagulation or blood clotting is a protective mechanism of the body against bleeding. When damage occurs to a blood vessel, a series of reactions take place involving substances found in the blood known as clotting factors. They are called this because they contribute to the formation of a blood clot.
Normally, clotting only occurs when there is blood loss from a damaged blood vessel. However, there are several conditions that can cause blood clots to form in the absence of active bleeding. When this occurs, a person may be at an increased risk of thromboembolic disease. In thromboembolic disease, fragments of blood clots dislodge and circulate in the blood, potentially obstructing blood vessels in the lungs and causing pulmonary embolism, or vessels in the heart and causing heart attack, or in the brain and causing stroke. These conditions are all potentially fatal. Therefore, when a person is at high risk of one of the above conditions (e.g. because they have had a stroke or heart attack previously), anticoagulants (medicines which thin the blood and reduce the formation of clots), are used to minimise the risk of blood clots forming.

People who require long-term anticoagulant therapy are usually given warfarin, an anticoagulant that can be taken in the form of a tablet instead of injection. This is often referred to as oral anti-coagulant therapy.


I do not know enough about these tests to find out what applies in this case: before meals? anticoagulation ??

Muchas gracias!
disagree Joseph Tein : Which one is it? It can only have one meaning in this situation.//Changing my vote to Disagree. Neither one of these makes sense in this question (unless you can show specific examples that support either suggestion).

Cosnautas

In case you're not familiar with it, this is the best, most comprehensive online resource for Spanish medical acronyms.

Cosnautas contains over 30,000 entries, often with multiple -- dozens sometimes -- possible meanings for a given term.

That's the case (unfortunately) for A.C. You'll have to sift through dozens of possible meanings and try to see which one applies to this situation.
