FINAL 01 - Drugs for Coagulation Disorders Flashcards
Refers to the prevention of blood loss
Hemostasis
3 stages of platelet plug formation (AAA)
Adhesion, Activation, Aggregation
When the endothelium is injured, platelets adhere to collagen in the tissues and to a protein called ___________ that leaks into the traumatized tissue from the plasma (Platelet adhesion phase - platelet plug formation)
von Willebrand factor (vWF)
Involves morphologic changes in platelets; release of platelet granules adenosine diphosphate (ADP), TXA2, serotonin, platelet-activation factor (PAF), and thrombin (Platelet plug formation phase)
Platelet activation
___________, a soluble plasma GP, simultaneously binds to GP IIb/IIIa receptors on two separate platelets, resulting in platelet cross-linking and platelet aggregation (Platelet aggregation - platelet plug formation phase)
Fibrinogen
The clot begins to develop in __________ to __________ seconds if the trauma to the vascular wall has been severe (Formation of blood clot)
15-20
The clot begins to develop in __________ to __________ minutes if the trauma has been minor (Formation of blood clot)
1-2
Within __________ to __________ minutes after rupture of a vessel, if the vessel opening is not too large, the entire opening or broken end of the vessel is filled with clot (Formation of blood clot)
3-6
After __________ minutes to an hour, the clot retracts and this closes the vessel still further (Formation of blood clot)

Substances that promote coagulation
Procoagulants
Substances that inhibit coagulation
Anticoagulants
Clotting factor I to XIII are __________
Procoagulants
Protein C and S are __________
Anticoagulants
Plasminogen is a __________
Fibrinolytic
Begins with a traumatized vascular wall or traumatized extravascular tissues that come in contact with the blood (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Extrinsic pathway
Begins with trauma to the blood itself or exposure of the blood to collagen from a traumatized blood vessel wall (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Intrinsic pathway
Activated by damage to the inside of blood vessels (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Intrinsic pathway
Have fewer steps; occurs rapidly (in seconds) (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Extrinsic pathway
Activated by damage to the outside of blood vessels (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Extrinsic pathway
The final pathway where both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways converge (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Common pathway
Extrinsic pathway activates clotting factor X which combines with factor V in the presence of Ca2+ to form the active enzyme __________
Prothrombinase
More complex; occurs more slowly (in minutes) (Coagulation cascade pathways)
Intrinsic pathway
__________ is a plasma protein that inhibits coagulation factors of the intrinsic and common pathways
Antithrombin
____________ are synthesized by endothelial cells and stimulate the activity of antithrombin
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans
