Q

Primary platelet plug??

A

When there is exposure to the subendothelium

  • it is not good to maintain haemostasis
  • fibrin formation - fibrin mesh - stabilise patent plug

Q

Extrinsic pathway?

A

VII binds to tissue factor

Together activate factor 10

Activated Xa converses prothrombin to thrombin

Thrombin converts fibrinogen to fibrin
