28
Q

Vascular injury 5 steps

A

1) vasoconstriction (decrease blood flow) with endothelin
2) primary hemostatic plug formation of platelets and subendothelial ECM
3) Tissue factor III triggers the coagulation cascade to make thrombin. This makes fibrinogen to fibrin forming over top as the SECONDARY HEMOSTATIC PLUG
4) anticoagulants released to protect from other coagulation in the body (fibrolysis).
5) clots eventually dissolve and are also very regulated

41
Q

Platelets forming primary hemostatic plug 4

A

42
Q

adhesion

A

platelets interact with vWF and creates a bridge between subendothelial ECM and platelet surface receptors

43
Q

secretion

secrete alpha granules and dense bodies (release Ca that starts coag. cascade) and ADP to mediate Aggregation

44
Q

activaton

A

expression of phospholipid complex on surface of platelets for Ca and coag. factor binding

45
Q

aggregation

A

ADP and Thromboxane A2 (vasoconstrictors) cycle of platelets to make primary plug. (reversible until the coag. cascade and formation of thrombin have happened).
thrombin formation - makes platelet contraction and the secondary hemostatic plug as well as converts Fibrinogen to fibrin (cementing the platelets)

46
Q

fibrinogen

A

links activated platelets to form large platelet aggregates with a receptor. the receptor is necessary or they could develop a bleeding disorder

47
Q

platelet functions

A

wound healing, angiogenesis, metastasis of neoplasia

48
Q

coagulation cascade

A

intrinsic and extrinsic pathways that converge to the common pathway

49
Q

Initiation of coagulation

A

primarily through tissue factor activation of the extrinsic pathway

50
Q

end result of coagulation cascade

A

thrombin and fibrinogen to fibrin (cross linked) forming a plug

51
Q

Cell-based model

A

not what we use but is the more accurate coagulation cascade

52
Q

extrinsic pathway

A

tissue factor (III) - Tissue factor VIIa - common pathway

Tissue factor initiates
VII produced in liver and Vit. K dependent (rodenticide toxicity this is the first to go)

53
Q

intrinsic pathway

A

hagerman factor - XIIa - XI - IX - VIII - common

absence of factor 12 is the most congenital defect in cats (no clinical bleeding)

54
Q

common Pathway

A

X - V - II(prothrombin) - I (fibrinogen) and XIII

thrombin first gets made then that makes fibrinogen

55
Q

Clotting factor biology

A

produced in liver.
II, VII, IX, X are vitamin K dependent

VII shortest half life

56
Q

prevention of uncontrolled clotting

A

restrict to where it is needed and is restricted to phospholipid surfaces, constant flow of blood dilutes the typical accumulation. (disrupted blood flow could lead to clots)

57
Q

antithrombin

A

inhibits thrombin. activated by binding heparin-like molecules (this is why heparin is administered as an anticoagulant)

58
Q

protein C and S (extended)

A

Vit. K dependent, inactivate Factors V and VIII, thrombomodulin activates protein C

59
Q

Plasmin

A

breaks down fibrin and interferes with polymerization

60
Q

Fibrin(ogen) degradation products (FDPs)

A

weak anticoagulant activity

removed by the liver and kidney

61
Q

primary hemostasis

A

formation of the primary plug involving blood vessels and platelets

62
Q

PH characteristics 4

A

A

thrombocytopenia (decrease in platelet concentration),
abnormal platelet function (thrombopathy: either vWF disease or taking NSAIDS),
abnormal vasculature

64
Q

Secondary hemostasis

A

stabilization of the primary hemostatic plug via the formation of cross linked fibrin by coagulation factors, disorders can be qualitative or quantitative of coagulation factors

65
Q

What makes most coagulation factors

A

evidence of primary and secondary hemostasis

70
Q
