BL- Introduction to Hemostasis Flashcards
Pro teases of the clotting path way are
Prekallikrein 12 11 9 7 10 2 13*
*=not serine
Factor X is at _____
the cross roads
Factor XIII-
A transglutaminase: forms amide bonds between specific lysine and glutamine residues of fibrin to make a stable____
clot
Cofactors of the clotting path way are
HMWK
TF
VIII
V
These speed up the reaction
Prekallikrein 12 11 9 7 10 2 13 These are all
Proteases
Lack intrinsic enzymatic activity
Act as receptors for other components of enzyme complexes, to speed reactions several hundred to several thousand-fold
Cofactors
Fibrinogen of the clotting path way are
Factor I (Fibrin) *makes the actual clot
HMWK TF VIII V are?
Cofactors
_______requires the interaction of platelets, coagulation and fibrinolytic factors, endothelium, proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators, and leukocytes
Hemostasis
Clot formation is typically initiated by vascular injury, in which a platelet plug forms and is reinforced with ______ produced via the extrinsic pathway
fibrin
Coagulation Factors 1
I Fibrinogen
Cofactors
Lack intrinsic enzymatic activity
Act as receptors for other components of enzyme complexes, to speed reactions several hundred to several thousand-fold
Coagulation Factors 2
II Prothrombin
Coagulation Factors 3
III Thromboplastin
Coagulation Factors 5
Proaccelerin
Coagulation Factors 7
Proconvertin
Coagulation Factors 8
Antihemophilic
Coagulation Factors 9
Christmas
Coagulation Factors 11
Plasma thromboplastin antecedent
Coagulation Factors 13
Fibrin stabilizing
Coagulation Factors IV
Calcium
Prothrombin + Thromboplastin + Calcium = Thrombin
Fibrinogen + Thrombin = Fibrin
Two-step process of coagulation:
The Prothrombin time
measures of prothrombin ratio (PR) and international normalized ratio (INR) are measures of the extrinsic pathway of coagulation. This test is also called “ProTime INR”
Almost all blood factors are made in the:
liver
If this isn’t functioning well, you become coagulopathic
