haemostats Flashcards
haemostasis
“halt of the blood”
stop you from bleeding out when cut
stasis
stop/incativity/halt
haemostasis mechanism
1 VASOCONSTRICTION of SMOOTH MUSCLE
2 PRIMARY HAEMOSTASIS
3 SECONDARY HAEMOSTASIS
4 FRIBINOLYSIS
primary haemostasis
form a temporary platelet plug
secondary haemostasis
form a proper fibrin clot
fibrinolysis
clot dissolved and vessels is reconstructed
vasoconstriction purpouse
reduce blood flow stop you bleeding out
what normally occurs in blood to avoid thrombosis
endothelial cells secrete coagulation inhibitors which act as anticoagulant
vasoconstriction mechanism
pain receptors in endothelium
reflex
smooth muscle vascular spasm
vasoconstriction synonym,
vascular spasm
how to form a temporary platelet plug
platelets stick together on wall of vessel
how to form a fibrin clot
fibrin reinforces the platelet plug by acting like a glue
platelet and fibrin analogy
bricks and cement§
time for vasoconstriction, primary and secondary haemostats
0s, 1s, 60s
what causes platelets to adhere to the vessel wall
collagen
