Thromboregulation is the mechanism by which the body regulates blood clotting to prevent both bleeding and excessive clotting. There are several synonyms for thromboregulation, including coagulation control, hemostatic regulation, clotting modulation, and platelet regulation. Each of these terms refers to the body's ability to prevent blood clots from forming in the wrong places and to dissolve clots when they are no longer needed. Thromboregulation is an important aspect of maintaining good cardiovascular health and preventing conditions such as deep vein thrombosis, stroke, and heart attack. It involves a complex interplay of proteins, cells, and hormones that work together to keep blood flowing smoothly throughout the body.
