Coagulation (also known as clotting, Dutch: "Stollen") is the process by which blood changes from a liquid to a gel, forming a blood clot.

It potentially results in [[Hemostasis|Hemostasis]], the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel, followed by repair. The mechanism of coagulation involves activation, adhesion, and aggregation of platelets along with deposition and maturation of fibrin. Disorders of coagulation are disease states which can result in bleeding (hemorrhage or bruising) or obstructive clotting (thrombosis).[1]
