What is another word for haemostasis?
Pronunciation: [hˈiːmə͡ʊstˌasiz] (IPA) 
Haemostasis refers to the process of stopping bleeding. Synonyms for haemostasis include hemostasis, blood clotting, coagulation, clotting, and stoppage of blood flow. Blood clotting is the natural process that occurs when an injury to a blood vessel triggers the body's natural clot-forming process. Coagulation is a complex process that involves a series of chemical reactions, which ultimately lead to the formation of a fibrin clot. Clotting of the blood is vital to prevent the loss of blood from damaged vessels and maintain blood flow within healthy vessels. Different conditions such as blood cancers or clotting disorders can affect the haemostasis process.
