SR Print(0) ID 1127768110 T1 CLINICAL APPROACH TO BLEEDING DISORDERS T2 Hematology in Clinical Practice, 5e YR 2016 FD 2016 PB McGraw-Hill Medical PP New York, NY SN 9780071626996 LK accessbiomedicalscience.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1127768110 RD 2024/04/23 AB Evaluation of a patient for a bleeding tendency or excessive hemorrhage is common in clinical medicine. It requires identification of key elements in the patient's history and physical examination and integration of these data with laboratory measurements and therapeutic maneuvers. Often the evaluation is part of the diagnosis and management of another illness as, for example, the patient who bleeds excessively during or after surgery or who develops a coagulopathy as part of a systemic illness. Therefore, successful diagnosis of a bleeding disorder very much depends on the skills of the clinician at the bedside.
