Abstract

The aging process is associated with an increased risk of hemostatic disturbances correlated to thromboembolic disorders. Clinical coagulation research may yield diagnostic tools for the identification of risk factors, which hopefully could provide a basis for prophylactic or therapeutic medical programs, leading to lowered morbidity/mortality in large patient groups.
