What effect does coagulation has on health?

Coagulation is the process of blood forming clots. Blood that is essentially too "thick" may form clots within the body leading to a stroke, heart attack, or blood clots in places like the lungs or legs. If a patient is put on an anti-coagulant or "blood-thinner" it reduces the time in which the blood coagulates thus helping to prevent these clots.
