the stoppage of bleeding

123
Q

Actions that limit or prevent blood loss include

A

Blood Vessel (Vascular) Spasm
Platelet PLug Formation
Blood Coagulation

124
Q

Vascular Spasm stimulated by

A

cutting or breaking a small blood vessel

125
Q

Vascular Spasm: Smooth muscle in blood vessel contracts

A

rapidly

126
Q

Vascular Spasm: Slows blood loss

A

very quickly, and ends of vessel may close completely

127
Q

Vascular Spasm: Triggered by

A

stimulation of the blood vessel wall, painr eceptor reflexes

128
Q

Vascular Spasm: Response lasts

A

a few minutes, but effect continues for 30 minutes

129
Q

Vascular Spasm: This allows time for a platelet plug to form and blood to

A

coagulate

130
Q

Vascular Spasm: Serotonin released from platelets causes

A

vasoconstriction which further helps to reduce blood loss

131
Q

PLatelet Plug Formation triggered by

A

exposure of platelets to collagen. Platelets adhere to rough surface to form a plug

132
Q

Blood Coagulation: Most effective

A

hemostatic mechanism, occurs within 5 to 15 minutes

133
Q

Blood Coagulation: Form blood clot in series of reactions, in which eact step

A

activates next one. This is called a cascade

134
Q

Blood Coagulation: Activated by two different methods:

A

Extrinsic or Intrinsic clotting mechanism

135
Q

Blood Coagulation: Many chemicals used in coagulation are called

A

clotting factors

136
Q

Blood Coagulation: Vitamin K necessary for functioning of some of the

A

clotting factors

137
Q

Blood Coagulation: Coagulation depends on balance between

A

procoagulants and anticoagulants

138
Q

Blood Coagulation: MAjor event is conversion of

A

soluble fibrinogen to insoluble threads of fibrin, which traps blood cells

139
Q

Extrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Triggered by

A

blood coming in contact with tissues outside of blood vessels or damaged wall of blodo vessel

140
Q

Extrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Damaged tissues release

A

tissue thromboplastin (factor iii) which is not found in blood

141
Q

Extrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Cascade begins, involving

A

sequential activation of several clotting factors

142
Q

Extrinsic Clotting Mechanism: thrombin converts

A

fibrinogen into insoluble fibrin threads

143
Q

Extrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Fibrin threads stick to

A

damaged blood vessel surfaces, and trap blood cells and platelets. This mass is a blood clot

144
Q

Intrinsic Clotting Mechanism: can start without

A

tissue damage

145
Q

Intrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Activated when

A

blood comes in contact with foreign surface, such as collagen, in connective tissue, instead of endothelium of blood vessel wall

146
Q

Intrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Triggered by

A

Hageman Factor XII (found inside blood)

147
Q

Intrinsic Clotting Mechanism: As in extrinsic clotting mechanism, this begins

A

sequential activation of several clotting factors

148
Q

Intrinsic Clotting Mechanism: Results in the same way as

A

exrinsic clotting mechanism, with formation of a fibrin mesh and a blood clot

149
Q

After a blood clot forms, it

A

retracts and pulls the edges of a broken blood vessel together while squeexing serum from the clot

150
Q

Serum =

A

plasma minus fibrinogen and most clotting factors

151
Q

Platelet-derived growth factor stimulates

A

smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts to repair damaged blood vessel walls

152
Q

Plasmin digests

A

fibrin threads, and dissolves the blood clot

153
Q

A thrombus is an

A

abnormal blood clot that forms in a blood vessel

154
Q

An embolus is a

A

blood clot moving through the blood vessels

155
Q

Thrombosis is a

A

blood clot in a vessel supply a vital organ

156
Q

Infarction is the

A

death of tissues which have blocked blood vessels due to blood clot formaiton

157
Q

Embolism is when a

A

blood clot that travels, and then blocks a blood vessel in an organ

158
Q

Atherosclerosis is the

A

accumulation of fat in arterial linings can sometimes cause abnormal clot formation; a common form of thrombosis

159
Q

Deep Vein Thrombosis is

A

a clot formation due to pooling of stagnat blood, mainly in femoral or popliteal veins, or deep veins

160
Q

Serious complication of DVT is a

A

pulmonary embolism

161
Q

what is a pulmonary embolism?

A

A blood clot travels through circulation, and lodges in a pulmonary blood vessel, resulting in loss of function in affected portion of lung

162
Q

Syptoms of DVT

A

Deep Muscle Pain
Cramping
Redness
Swelling

163
Q

As a clot forms, what happens?

A

Fibrin absorms thrombin and prevents the clotting reaction from spreading

164
Q

Prevention of Coagulation: Antithrombin inactivates

A

additional thrombin by binding it to and blocking its actions on fibrinogen

165
Q

Factors that Inhibit Blood Clot Formation: Smooth lining of blood vessel action

A

Prevent activation of intrinsic blood clotting mechanism

166
Q

Factors that Inhibit Blood Clot Formation: Prostacyclin Action

A

Inhibits adherence of platelets to blood vessel wall

167
Q

Factors that Inhibit Blood Clot Formation: Fibrin threads action

A

absorbs thrombin

168
Q

A

Interfers with the formation of prothrombin activator

170
Q

Blood types are distinguished by

A

proteins on the surface of red blood cells, and these can be determined by the proteins or byy the genes that encode them

171
Q

What is a Antigen?

A

Any molecule that envokes an immune response

172
Q

If immune systme finds a foreign antigen in the body, it produces

A

antibodies against the antigen

173
Q

What are antibodies?

A

Proteins that react against a specific antigen

174
Q

What is Agglutination?

A

Clumping of RBCs which occurs when an antibody encounters its specific antigen

175
Q

ABO blood group is based on

A

the presence of two major antigens on red blood cell membranes: Antigen A and Antigen B

176
Q

Antigens A and B are

A

carbohydrates

177
Q

Blood Type A Antigen

A

A

178
Q

Blood Type B Antigen

A

B

179
Q

Blood Type AB Antigen

A

A and B

180
Q

Blood Type O Antigen

A

Neither A or B

181
Q

Blood Type A Antibody

A

Anti-B

182
Q

BLood Type B Antibody

A

Anti-A

183
Q

Blood Type AB Antibody

A

Neither Anti-A nor Anti-B

184
Q

Blood Type O Antibody

A

Both Anti-A and Anti-B

185
Q

What is Aglutination?

A

When RBCs come in contact with antibodies against them, they will agglutinate (clump together)

186
Q

What is the Universal Donor?

A

Type O

187
Q

Type O lacks

A

A and B Antigens so they can be donated to a person with ny blood type

188
Q

What is the Universal Recipient?

A

Type AB

189
Q

Type AB lacks both

A

Anti-A and Anti-B antibodies so an indvidual with type AB can receive donor RBCs of any type

Antigen A

192
Q

RH postiive is the

A

presence of Antigen D or other Rh antigens on RBC membranes

193
Q

RH negative does not

A

have Rh antigens on RBCmembranes

194
Q

Anti-RH antibodies form only in

A

Rh-Negative individuals in response to the presence of red blood cells with Rh antigens
