[[Platelets|Platelets]] stick to the damaged vessel, attracted by the exposed [[Collagen|collagen]]. The platelets form a platelet plug and stop the external bleeding. Chemicals released from the site attract clotting factors (see [[Clotting Cascade|Clotting Cascade]]) which lead to [[Fibrin|fibrin]] formation. The fibrin sticks together and seals the wound forming the blood clot&lt;ref&gt;http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/19462.htm&lt;/ref&gt;. <br /> <br /> === References ===<br /> <br /> &lt;references /&gt;&lt;br&gt;</div>
