2.4.2 Existing Problems of Blood Coagulation Testing

According to basic survey results, the existing main problems for coagulation testing include nonunified standardization, insufficient academic knowledge of blood coagulation, less equipment, few testing items, insufficient sample size, insufficient clinical communication, etc. These factors have restricted the development of blood coagulation to a great extent, especially in primary hospitals. Although there are many academic associations, industry reports and lectures, etc., doctors in primary hospitals may not have access to these contents and the latest blood coagulation knowledge, and cannot keep up with the trend of blood coagulation development.

For the above problems, the respondents generally believe that the most urgent issues to be solved for the blood coagulation testing are standardization and quality control, communication with clinical department, improvement of professional skills of personnel, and interpretation of abnormal results, etc. They also expect to obtain corresponding assistance, for example, standardized coagulation testing, quality control, professional technical guidance of coagulation, continuous quality improvement, report interpretation, etc. All these issues need to be studied and improved in the future.
