Hemostasis encompasses all the mechanisms involved in stopping bleeding. When a blood vessel is breached, the body's task is to repair it. Certain parameters, such as prothrombin time, International Normalized Ratio and activated partial thromboplastin time, play a role in both the diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of this pathology. The aim of this study was to investigate haemostasis in children aged 0 to 17 years. The parameters studied were prothrombin rate (PT), INR and activated partial thromboplastin time or kaolin (aPTT/TCK). 100 patients were included, 57% of them male and 43% female. The majority of these patients came from Commune 6 (61%), 16% from Commune 5, 10% from the outskirts of Bamako (i.e. patients outside the communes of Bamako), 8% from Commune 1, and 5% from Commune 4. With regard to the reasons for prescribing haemostasis, it emerged that this parameter was prescribed in patients mainly for preoperative assessment (90% of cases). This analysis was also suggested in cases of suspected infection (4%).
