Q

describe the role of nitric oxide

A

inhibits platelet adhesion, aggregation, and binding of fibrinogen between glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex
causes vasodilation by nitric oxide synthase which increases guanilate cyclase producing a 2nd messenger guanylate monophosphate, causing smooth muscle relaxation causing increase in blood flow which limits procoagulants by washing them away

Q

after vessel injury from plaque dislodgement, surgical instrumentation, or trauma, what happens next five steps

A

1) vessel wall contracts, decreases blood flow via thromboxane A2 and ADP
2) adhesion-vWF from endothelial cell emerges, GpIb from platelets attach to vWF, and call other platelets to site of injury 3)TF causes platelet to become activated 4)from platelet GpIIb/IIIa emerge to link other platelets to form a platelet plug 5)platelets release alpha and dense granules, contractile granules, and thrombin to promote procoagulant activity
* this platelet plug is unstable, if this does not control issue activation of coagulation cascade is next

Q

describe the intrinsic pathway (contact activation pathway)

A

1)injury within blood vessel initiates prekallikrein, high molecular weight kininogen and by the activation of factor XII (Hageman factor). in the presence of calcium (factor IV). Factor XII (Hageman) activates facttor XI(plasma thromboplastin antecedent) which activates factor IX(christmas)which activates factor VIII (antihemophilic factor) and merges at the common pathway and activates factor X(stuart power factor) which forms a complex with factor V (proaccelerin) activating factor II (prothrombin) which turns into thrombin IIa (when active) which activates factor I (fibrinogen) to form activated fibrinogen (Ia)

Q

which factor is important for both pathways, intrinsic and extrinsic

A

conversion of prothrombin to thrombin
thrombin assists in activating factors V(proaccelerin), VIII(antihemophilic factor), I (Fibrin) and XIII(fibrin stabilizing) and influences platelets to area of injury. Ample amounts of thrombin(prothrombin) must be present to activate adequate fibrin to form a stable clot

Q

how does thrombin act as an anticoagulant (3 ways)

A

1) prevents runaway clot formation by releasing tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) fro endothelial cells
2) stimulates protein C and protein S to stop clot formation
3) forms a relationship with antithrombin II to interfere with coagulation

Q

what is terminal pathway of coagulation cascade

A 
common pathway-factor X is activated by intrinisc and extrinsic pathways, and factor X needs factor V and calcium to contert factor II(prothrombin) to its active state factor IIa(thrombin), and IIa(thrombin) activates factor I(fibrinogen)to its active Ia (fibrin)
factor XIII (fibrin stabilizing factor) makes sure platelet plug will hold by forming cross linking mesh in platelet plug, and in conjunction with factor Ia (fibrin) secures a secondary plug until bleeding stops and as it contracts it weaves the vessel together healing the site of injury

risk of bleeding related to surgery | patients risk for thromboembolism
89
- describe DIC | - describe steps of DIC (5)
activation of systemic inflammation and coagulation thrombosis, hemorrhage, or both thrombosis in microcirculation and depletion of procoagulant factors increased fibrinolytic activity followed by release of plasminogenactivator inhibitor type I (PAI-I) which impairs fibrinolysis and leads to accelerated formation of clots in DIC. activated protein C mediates release of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor nd interleukins from endothelial cells, complement activation and kinin generation increase the coagulation response, leading to more vascular occlusion 1)intravascular deposition of fibrin 2)thrombotic microangiopathy 3)compromised blood supply to organs 4) multi system organ failure 5)use and depletion of platelets and coagulation factors
90
