General description
Scientists have made great strides in understanding what stimulates platelets to form blood clots at the molecular level and in developing drugs to inhibit platelet action. Their work has an effect on people who deal with cardiovascular disease, strokes, surgery, physical trauma, and other conditions. . It is a comprehensive laboratory manual on current procedures for evaluating and analyzing platelet function and abnormalities. Topics range from the basics of anticoagulants to the latest developments in platelet testing.
