Summary:An adjoint‐based methodology is proposed to compute the gradient of the outcomes of mathematical models for the coagulation cascade. The method is first exposed and validated by considering a simple, analytically tractable case involving only 3 species. Its potential is further illustrated by considering a detailed model for the extrinsic pathway involving 34 chemical species interacting through 45 chemical reactions and for which the gradient of Endogeneous Thrombin Potential, clotting time, maximum rate and peak value of thrombin with respect to the initial concentrations and reactions rates are computed. It is shown that the method produces gradients estimates that are fully consistent with the finite differences approximation used so far in the literature, but at a much lower computational cost.
