Coagulation Disorders Flashcards
Intrinsic Pathway Factor Activation
Collagen, Platelet Factor III (PF3) Factor XII -> Factor XI -> Factor IX -> IXa Thrombin + Factor VIII -> VIIIa Factor VIIIa + IXa -> Factor X -> Xa Begining of Common Pathway
Extrinsic Pathway Factor Activation
TF (thromboplastin), calcium, Platelet Factor III (PF3) Trauma + Factor VII -> VIIa Trauma + TF -> TF VIIa + TF -. Factor X-> Xa Beginning of Common Pathway
Common Pathway Factor Activation
X-> Xa Thrombin + Factor V -> Va Va + Xa + Prothrombin -> Thrombin Thrombin + Fibrinogen -> Fibrin Fibrin + XIIIa + thrombin = Stable Fibrin Clot
Normal Platelte Range
150 to 400 x10^9 / uL
Prothrombin Time (PT) measure which factors and monitors which therapy?
Extrinsic Pathway
I, II, V, VII, X
Warfarin
Partial Thromboplastin (PTT)Time measures which factors and monitors which therapy?
Intrinsic Pathway
XII, XI, IX, X, V, I
Described thrombin time (TT)
coagulation test that measures the interval to clot formation after the addition of thrombin to plasma. Often used to screen for the presence of heparin.
INR Calculation
(Patients PT/MNPT)ISI
Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)
Accelerated platelet destruction. Disorder of children Bruising, petichae, mucosal bleeding Occurs after upper respiratory/gastrointestinal infection Spontaneous recover after 1-3 weeks
Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP)
Characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, throbocytopenia, neurological abnormalities
Women (30-40yrs) more than men
Diarrhea, anorexia, weakness, fatigue
Acute, recurrent, drug induced, chronic
Hemolytic Uremic Syndrom (HUS)
Similar to TTP Children Shigella dysenteriae or E.coli Bloody diarrhea and erosive colon damage Inhibition of platelet aggregation
Glanzmann’s Thrombasthenia
Autosomal recessive
Abnormal adhesion, defects in primary aggregation
Abnomality of platelet membrane GP IIb/IIIa complex
Manifests neonatal
Epistaxis and gingival bleeding, petechia, purpura,
von Willebrand’s Disease
Abnormalities of von Willebrand factor
Decreased adhesion of platelets to injured vessels
Impaired primary hemostasis
Autosomal dominant
Bernard-Soulier syndrome
Giant platelets
Prolonged bleeding time, thrombocytopenia, decreased platelet survival
Abnormal/missing glycoprotein Ib/IX/V
Hemophilia A
Factor 8 Deficiency
Sex linked recessive
Bleeds in deep muscle, joint hemorrhages, hemayomas, oozing
