Prothrombin - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding Blood Clotting Factors in the Human Body

Blood clotting factors play a crucial role in the coagulation process to prevent excessive bleeding. Factors such as Fibrinogen (Factor-I), Prothrombin (Factor-II), Thromboplastin (Factor-III), Calcium Ions (Factor-IV), Labile Factor (Factor-V), and Stable Factor (Factor-VII) are essential for the c

Understanding Coagulation Profile: A Comprehensive Overview

Coagulation is a crucial process in hemostasis that involves clot formation. This profile delves into estimating clotting time, bleeding time, and prothrombin time to assess coagulation status. Explore the mechanisms of hemostasis, clotting cascade, triggers of intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, and
