What Are the Clinical Signs of Hemostatic Disruption?
Disruption of hemostasis can lead to a range of clinical signs. Excessive bleeding may manifest as easy bruising, prolonged bleeding from minor cuts, or unexplained bleeding from mucous membranes. Conversely, excessive clotting can lead to thrombosis, which may result in symptoms such as swelling, pain, or skin discoloration in the affected area. In severe cases, thrombosis can lead to life-threatening conditions like stroke or pulmonary embolism.
