Q

Acquired Coagulation disorders

A

-Decreased production (liver disease, Vitamin K deficiency)
-Increased utilization (endothelial injury, sever trauma or burns, DIC)
-Inhibition of coagulation factors (heparin, FDP, antiphospholipid antibody, antibody to CF)

16
Q

Vitamin K antagonists

A

-Moldy sweet clover
-Rodenticides (warfarin)
-Sulfaquinoxaline

17
Q

Other causes of Vitamin K deficiency

A

-Anorexia
-Enteric antimicrobials
-Decreased fat digestion or absorption

18
Q

Causes of DIC

A

Major stimulus is widespread vascular injury

19
Q

DIC

A

Thrombin is the central role
-Activates platelets and coagulation factors and activates fibrinolysis
-Rapid consumption of hemostatic proteins (coagulopathy)
-Later get uncontrolled hemorrhage

20
Q

DIC morphology

A

-Subclinical to sever hemorrhage
-Shock
-Organ Failure

21
Q

Causes of hemorrhage

A

-Vascular injury
-Platelet disorders
-Coagulation disorders

22
Q

Causes of vascular injury

A

-Trauma
-Inflammation
-Secondary invasion
-Necrosis
-Endothelial degeneration (endotoxin)

23
Q

By rhexis

A

Active blood loss due to tears or rents in blood vessel

24
Q

By diapedesis

A

Passive blood loss through endothelial gaps

25
Q

Classification of hemorrhage

A

-Petechia
-Ecchymosis
-Suffusive

26
Q

Petechia

A

Pinpoint hemorrhage

27
Q

Eccymosis

A

Medium hemorrhage associated with more severe vascular injury

28
Q

Suffusive

A

Large localized hemorrhage

29
Q

Hematoma

A

Hemorrhage into tissue or interstitium. Eventually stops (confined) when pressure in outside of tissue is same in blood vessel

30
Q

Thrombosis

A

Solid mass of blood components within a blood vessel or the heart. Reflection of excessive or inappropriate hemostasis

31
Q

Causes of thrombosis

A

-Endothelial activation/injury
-Platelet activation
-Coagulation pathways activated
-Stasis
-Decreased fibrinolysis
-Abnormal anti-coagulant proteins

32
Q

Virchows triad

A

-Altered blood vessels
-Altered blood flow
-Altered in blood coagulation
