Hemostasis is the process by which blood clots to stop bleeding after an injury. It is a complex process with three main stages – vascular spasm, platelet plug formation, and blood coagulation. Hemostasis enables us to stop bleeding from injured… Read More »Hemostasis: Processes, Factors, Pathways, and Disorders
Understanding the different blood groups and compatibility is key for medical technologists working in transfusion medicine. In this blog, we’ll cover the major blood group systems, antibody-antigen reactions, and crossmatching procedures that allow us to safely transfuse blood products. In… Read More »Blood Grouping and crossmatching
Introduction The study of the size, shape, color, and structure of blood cells. As a medical lab , having a solid understanding of normal blood cell morphology is crucial for identifying abnormal cells that could indicate disease. In this blog… Read More »Blood cell morphology – Analyzing RBC, WBC and platelet appearance
Coagulation is the process by which blood forms clots to stop bleeding after an injury. There are two main coagulation pathways – the intrinsic pathway and the extrinsic pathway. Both pathways lead to a common pathway that results in fibrin… Read More »Coagulation Pathways and Factors
Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are small, colorless cell fragments in our blood that play a pivotal role in hemostasis – the process that causes bleeding to stop. Despite their diminutive size, platelets have powerful capabilities when it comes to plugging… Read More »Platelets Structure and Function
