B3-049 Disorders of Coagulation Flashcards
VWF is synthesized from
endothelial cells (stored in Weibel Palade bodies)
platelets (stored in alpha granules)
multimers that vary in molecular weight make up
VWF
VWF is processed in the plasma by
ADAMTS-13
protease that cleaves ultra large VWF multimers into smaller sizes
ADAMTS-13

high for DIC
low for inhierited disorders of increased fibrinolysis
D dimer has [high/low] specificity
low
positive in any disorder that produces intravascular clot
D-dimer has a [high/low] negative predictive value
high for PE
bleeding within skin or mucous membranes
purpura
pinpoint bleeding of skin or mucous membranes
petechiae
large confluent area of bleeding within skin, larger than petechiae
ecchymosis
a collection of blood in an organ, space or tissue
hematoma
bleeding into the joint space
hemarthrosis
bleeding patterns consistent with primary hemostasis problem
skin/mucosal bleeds
