Book Description:
Hemostasis (coagulation and fibrinolysis) is of importance in a broad range of medical disciplines. A high-quality hemostasis diagnosis enables a good therapy, which can be rather complicated without laboratory help. This new yearbook gathers important contributions in this field and presents them in a coherent and logical format. (Imprint: Nova Press)
