ASTM's temperature measurement standards provide the material and property specifications, as well as guides for the testing, calibration, and use of laboratory, industrial, and clinical instruments used in the determination of thermal variables, particularly temperature.
Coagulation Factor Deficiency or Dysfunction. A bleeding disorder may be due to a lack of one or more clotting factors or the result of factors that do not function properly. Deficiency or dysfunction of coagulation factors may have genetic causes (inherited) or may be the result of another disease or condition. The following are a few examples: Inherited.
