Got a young patient who just won't stop bleeding from their microchip site, vaccine site, or gingiva after deciduous tooth loss? There's a good chance they have a coagulopathy.

We see two types of coagulopathy in practice - congenital and acquired - and it's those congenital ones we're discussing today. It's important we pick up on these as soon as possible in the patient's life, to prevent severe haemorrhage at the time of neutering or during other procedures.

Identifying congenital coagulopathies starts with understanding what they are, and how they impact our patients - which is exactly what you'll be able to do after this episode.
