Pattern: heparin fails to anticoagulate
low ATIII
Pattern: recurrent severe VTE, fmhx thrombosis (PTT does change), DIC, liver dysfunction, nephrotic syndrome, IBD, L-asparaginase
ATIII deficiency
Pattern: late onset thrombosis
factor V Leiden
function of mutation in Factor V Leiden
prevents protein C from cleaving it
Pattern: VTE, hx of DVT, increased prothrombin concentration
prothrombin gene mutation
Pattern: increased risk of arterial and VTE, increased homocysteine which causes vascular damage
hyperhomocysteinemia
Pattern: increased PTT, doesn’t cause bleeding instead recurrent VTE, stroke, recurrent pregnancy loss

What are some acquired thrombotic states?
nephrotic, IBD, malignancy, HIT
Pattern: relative or absolute thrombocytopenia, heparin exposure >5 days, serotonin release assay positive, heparin associated antibody positive
HIT
