Basic Principles Of Hemostasis Flashcards
______ involves the enzymatic activation of series of plasma proteins (procoagulants) in the coagulation system to form fibrin meshwork
Secondary hemostasis
______ is a process whereby, on vessel injury, plasma proteins, tissue factors, and calcium interact on the surface of platelets to form a stable fibrin clot
Coagulation
Activated state of proenzymes is called?
Serine proteases
_____ occurs on the surface of platelet/endothelial cell membrane (platelet plug) & not on the fluid phase
Coagulation
_____ circulates in the plasma with vwf and is referred to as factor viii complex
Factor VIll
_____ is composed of large multimeric glycoprotein that participates in platelet adhesion and transports factor viii
Von willebrand factor
_____ are stored in the alpha granules in platelets and in weibel - palade bodies in ECs
Von willebrand factor (vwf)
Deficiency in factor viii or its dysfunction results in _____
Hemophilia A
Deficiency in VWF or a dysfunctional molecule results in?
Von willebrand disease (VWD)
_______ is a mineral & play a big role in the important stages of coagulation
Factor IV (calcium)
Enumerate the 3 acute phase reactants
Fibrinogen
HMWK
Prothrombin
_____ represents the antigenic properties of factor viii measured by immunoassays
Factor VWF:Ag-
_____ the property of VWF which causes platelet aggregation in the presence of ristocetin
Ristocetin co-factor activity
_______ consumed during coagulation, absent in serum but present in plasma. Vit. K not needed for their synthesis. Not absorbed by BaSO4 or Al(OH)3. Increased in inflammation, trauma, stress & pregnancy.
Thrombin-sensitive group/Fibrinogen group
______ is present in both serum and plasma (not consumed by coagulation), well-preserved in stored plasma. Vit. K needed for their synthesis, can be absorbed by BaSO4 & Al(OH)3.
