For centuries from Hippocrates and Galen to Virchow and Morawitz, the process of hemostasis and its pathways has mystified us, and Roman numerals have comprised our understanding of hemostasis and coagulation. The reassuring “cascade” of events that has represented the process of coagulation and hemostasis has remained dogma until recently. Hemostasis is a dynamic system comprised of “balanced” systems and cannot be explained away by a model of coagulation that is based on “cascades.” As we are forced to understand the “full” picture of hemostasis, we will evaluate coagulation in a more complete way.
