Each objective describes a laboratory competency, screening tests support patterns, not definitive diagnosis alone.

  • Apply stepwise coagulation interpretation workflow from specimen to reportable comment
  • Integrate platelet count and clinical bleeding history with PT/aPTT patterns
  • Select reflex testing: mixing study, factor assay, VWF panel per pattern
  • Use hedged language, screening supports patterns, not definitive diagnosis
