Q

HIT and HITT mechanism

A

Heparin binds platelet factor 4 and induces formation of IgG
Heparin/PF4-IgG complex activates platelets
-decreases number of circulating platelets
-HIT defined as 40-50% decrease in platelets
-HITT involves decrease AND any sign of thrombosis

Q

Plasma proteins absorb onto surface of ECC. Factors affecting absorption:

A

Very quick
Amount absorbed depends on concentration and intrinsic surface activity of biomaterial
Cannot predict response of loos to biomaterial
Wettability
Hydrophilic/hydrophobic ratio
Roughness
Subsurface features
Distribution of functional receptor sites

Q

End results of blood exposure to ECC

A

High number of different reactions: changes composition of blood–changed blood reaches every organ, tissue, cell
Change in blood composition triggers normal endothelial cells- additional blood proteins converted to active enzymes, stimulated to expose various receptors, stimulated to release granule contents, stimulated to synthesize new enzymes and chemicals

Q

Proteins activated by contact with ECC

A

Factor XII: absorbed onto foreign surface of ECC (prekallikrein and HMWK must be present)
Factor XI: changes shape producing active protease factor XIIa and XIIf

Q

Functions of active protease factor XIIa

A
  1. Cleaves prekallikrein to kallikrein (kallikrein strong neutrophil agonist, factor XIIa is weak neutrophil agonist)
  2. Cleaves HMWK to bradykinin (potent vasodilator)
  3. Activates factor XI to XIa (kallikrein and HMWK must be present, activates intrinsic coagulation cascade-thrombin production)

Q

Initiation of intrinsic coagulation cascade

A

Initiated by plasma contact activation

Initiated directly by blood contact with ECC

16
Q

Initiation of extrinsic coagulation cascade

A

Initiated by expression of tissue factor on nonvascular cells
2 forms: cell bound tissue fiber, soluble plasma Tissue factor
Binds to and activates factor VII which activates factor X

17
Q

Thrombin actions

A

Production of fibrin from fibrinogen
Cross-linking fibrin
Activating platelets
Stimulating production of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) by endothelial cells

18
Q

Factors in fibrinolysis

A

Extrinsic: tPA and urokinase
Intrinsic: factor XIIa, kallikrein, HMWK
Exogenous: streptokinase

19

20
Q

Initiation of alternative pathway in complement system

A

C3b (product of classical pathway)
Spontaneous activation on continuous basis
Feedback Loop for amplification

21
Q

Terminal pathway of complement system

A

Classical and terminal merge at level of c3 convertase production
End products work to prevent/limit damage from invading organism or toxin

22
Q

A

Neutrophils and macrophages activates

Engulf bacteria to which antigen-antibody complex is attached

23
Q

A

Final product called lyric complex or terminal complement complex
Creates pore in cell membrane of bacteria or invading organism that allows influx of water and ions into the cell

24
Q
