*** Such bleeding is usually detected following trauma or surgery.
**** May occasionally be spontaneous (e.g. into alimentary or urinary tracts).
** Often seen as familial inherited problems.
*** E.g. [[Haemostasis - Pathology#Factor VIII|haemophilia]].
* '''Vitamin K'''
** Absolute or relative deficiency of vitamin K can give rise to abnormal prothrombin levels or activity.
*** Gives defective coagulation.
