Secondary hemostasis describes the formation of a cross linked fibrin meshwork in the blood clot and is dependent on the soluble coagulation factors. Abnormalities in secondary coagulation can occur from insufficient coagulation factors or the presence of inactive coagulation factors. The soluble coagulation factors are traditionally divided into the intrinsic, extrinsic and common pathways, as described in the introduction.
