Hematology CH 38 Flashcards

1

Q

What is an important function of the endothelial lining of blood vessels

A

They repel blood components away from the vessel was to prevent activation of clotting mechanism

Q

What does the Media (2nd layer - Subendothelial) contain?

A

It is extremely thrombogenic and very active, contains collagen and fibronectin

Collagen - important in PLT attachment

Fibronectin - Aids with aching fibrin during plug formation

Q

Where is NO and Prostacyclin made and what is their role?

A

Produced by Endothelial (inner layer) cells, and influence Adventitia (Outer layer - Externa)

They work by causing vasodilation and increasing the flow of blood, therefore interfere with PLT formation and aggregation; limit procoagulant mediations “wash them away”

NO –> Muscle relaxation
Prostacyclin –> Lipid molecule

Q

Where are PLTs formed and stored?

Q

PLTs contain a nucleus, T/F?

A

False! They do not contain a nucleus, DNA, nor RNA. So they do not reproduce.

THEY DO contain mitochondria in cytoplasm, so they participate in aerobic & anerobic metabolism

C) GPlb & Fibrinogen bind to form a plug
D) Gpllb/llla & vWF attach to attract PLTs; make them “sticky”
E) none of the above

A

B & D

TF will influence PLTs to undergo transformation and become activated, GPllb/llla will project off these PLTs and attach to Fibrinogen to help form primary plug

B) TF influences PLT activation
C) GPlb & Fibrinogen bind to form a plug
D) Gpllb/llla & vWF attach to attract PLTs; make them “sticky”
E) none of the above

A

E.
During this time PLT releases alpha & dense granules, contractile granules, thrombin, and other important procoagulant activators as mediators responsible for PLT aggregation. Here the primary plug is solidified.

Small injuries primary plug is sufficient
Large injuries require secondary plug

50-100K

66
Q

What PLT level would be severe thrombocytopenia?

A

Spontaneous bleed is rare, but may be prolonged in sx.

PLT < 20K will have spontaneous bleeding

67
Q

What is the primary role of PLTs?

A

maintain vascular integrity
aggregate
initiate clotting cascade

68
Q

What is a normal PT time

A

10-15 sec

69
Q

Is PT affecting the intrinsic or extrinsic pathway?

A

Extrinsic

think PET - E for extrinsic

Extrinsic factors 3,7

70
Q

What is a normal PTT value?

A

25-40 sec

71
Q

Is PTT affecting the intrinsic or extrinsic pathway?

A

Intrinsic

think PITT - I for intrinsic

Intrinsic Factors 12,11,9,8

72
Q

T/F. Any factor deficiency (intrinsic, extrinsic, or common pathway) will lead to increased risk of bleed.

A

False

For sure only factor 8,9 will cause bleeding if deficient (seen with hemophilia)

73
Q

What is a normal INR?

A

less than or equal to 1.1 (normal healthy person)

2-3 (therapeutic range)

Book says overall (1.5-2.5)

74
Q

What is a normal ACT?

A

90-150 sec

monitors ability to clot

TEG

79
Q

What are the 3 major reasons for transfusing in OR?

A

Replace volume
Replace coagulation factors
Improve oxygen carrying capacity

80
Q

What is the recommended dose for PLT infusion?

A

1 unit/10kg BW

This should improve PLT count by 5-10K

81
Q

What is the normal life span of PLT vs if it is donated?

A

Normal: 7-10 days
Donated: 4-5 days

82
Q

PLTs pose a high risk of bacterial transmission. T/F

A

True.

They are stored at room temperature for 4-5 days making it an excellent medium for bacterial growth

83
Q

How do we get FFP and what does it contain?

A

It is the fluid portion of whole blood, frozen to persevere it contents.

Contains: Coag factors and naturally occurring inhibitors

Doesn’t provide PLTs

84
Q

What are alternatives to replace 1 unit of FFP?

A

4-5 PLT concentrates
1 unit single donor apheresis PLT
1 unit fresh whole blood

85
Q

Cryo is rich in?

A

Factors 8, 13, 1
Fibronectin
VWF

86
Q

When would you give cryo?

A

test indicates fibrinolysis
concentration of fibrinogen < 80-100mg/dL + bleeding
adjunct in MTP
congenital fibrinogen deficiencies

If desmopressin and vWF/Vlll concentrate are ineffective in try vWD, then cryo can be given

87
Q

When do you use recombinant factor Vll?

A

Hemophilia A (Vlll) & B (lX)
Inhibitor disorders of Vlll & lX
Factor Vll deficiency
Universal hemostatic agent

*will reverse prolonged INR but not replace clotting factors

*caution in pts predisposed to thrombosis

Tx very expensive

suggested dose: 20-45 mcg/kg

88
Q

A pt with an abnormal PT/INR and normal PTT would have what deficiency (ies)?

What is the treatment?

A

Factor Vll Deficient

Tx: FFP

89
Q

A pt with an abnormal PTT and normal PT/INR would have what deficiency (ies)?

What is the treatment?

A

Factor Vlll, lX, Xl Deficient or on heparin tx

90
Q

A pt with an abnormal PT/INR and abnormal PTT would have what deficiency (ies)?

What is the treatment?

A

Factor X, V, ll Deficient
Dysfrbrinogen
Heparin (high level)
Warfarin
Vit K deficient
Liver disease
DIC

Tx: FFP, Cryo, Protamine

106
Q

What labs will be abnormal in vWF disease?

A

1) prolonged BT and PTT (Apex)
2) decreased vWF (Nagelhout)

4) decreased factor 8

107
Q

What are the treatment options for vWF disease?

A

1) Desmopressin
2) F8/vWF concentrate
3) IV immunoglobulins

5) Tranexamic acid

108

109
Q

How does Warfarin work?

A

-Warfarin inhibit the enzyme vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1, which is responsible for converting inactive Vit K to active (Apex)

110
Q

What lab tests indicate DIC?

A

Increased PT, PT, D-dimer, FDP

Sepsis (highest risk)
Postoperative
Obstetric
Blood transfusion reactions

hypoxemia
hypothermia
infection
dehydration
venous stasis
acidosis

114
Q

What is the most common surgery among sickle cell patients?

A

Cholecystectomy due to excess bilirubin from rapid breakdown of sickle erythrocytes

115
Q

What is the most common hemoglobin type in sickle cell disease (SCD)?

A

Hemoglobin S

116
Q

What is the appropriate anesthesia management for patients with SCD?

A

provide adequate hydration
promote adequate oxygen saturation
ensure normothermia
maintain acid-base balance
provide proper patient positioning
Adequate pain management
Caution with vaso-oclusive devices such as tourniquets
For high risk procedure, decrease hemoglobin S level <30%

*preop blood transfusion is a debate

117
Q

What are clinical signs of HIT?

A

-Decreased of >50% in platelet count from baseline or total platelet count <100,000 on heparin or LMWH
