Hemodynamic disorders Flashcards
Forces pushing fluid out of a vessel
hydrostatic pressure
Osmotic force keeping fluid in a vessel
Oncotic pressure
What is normally more than the other?
Forces keeping fluid in vessels or forces pushing/allowing fluid out?
Forces pushing/allowing fluid out is slightly greater
Excess interstitial fluid
Edema
Excess fluid in a cavity
Effusion
Intra-abdominal effusion
Ascites
3 reasons for excess fluid
Increased hydrostatic pressure
Decreased oncotic pressure
Increased vascular permeability
3 reasons for increased hydrostatic pressure
Decreased venous return (may be local or systemic)
Increased plasma volume (kidney failure or increased Na retention)
Decreased lymphatic drainage (tumor, filariasis, scar tissue)
2 reasons for decreased oncotic pressure
Decreased protein production (liver failure or malnutrition)
Increased protein loss (kidney failure or diarrheal illness)
Fluid high in protein and cellularity
Seen in situations with high vascular permeability (inflammation, endothelial damage)
Exudate
Fluid low in protein and cellularity
Seen in situations with high hydrostatic pressure or low colloid pressure (heart or liver failure)
Transudate
Does high or low hydrostatic pressure lead to transudate?
High
Disorder of perfusion involving increased intravascular blood due to increased inflow (inflammation)
Hyperemia
Disorder of perfusion involving increased intravascular blood due to decreased outflow (heart failure)
May cause hepatomegaly
Congestion
Disorder of perfusion involving blood leaving vascular space
Trauma, vascular disease, coagulopathy
Hemorrhage
What is hyperemia (increased intravascular blood) due to?
Increased inflow
What is congestion (increased intravascular blood) due to?
Decreased outflow
Condition that makes someone vulnerable to bleeding with small injury
Can cause hemorrhages
Can involve platelets or coagulation proteins
Coagulopathy
Pinpoint hemorrhage in skin or cornea
Due to microvascular rupture
Petechiae
Diffuse superficial hemorrhages in skin
Often a confluence; often seen in small vessel disorders
Purpura
Larger collection of blood in superficial skin
Ecchymosis
Progression of bruise colors due to RBC degradation:
First to appear
Hemoglobin (red)
Progression of bruise colors due to RBC degradation:
Second to appear
Deoxyhemoglobin (blue-red)
Progression of bruise colors due to RBC degradation:
Third to appear
Biliverdin (yellow-green)
Progression of bruise colors due to RBC degradation:
Fourth to appear
Hemosiderin (yellow-brown)
Collection of blood in soft tissue of parenchymal organ
Hematoma
Collection of blood in anatomic space
Hemorrhagic effusion
Normal process to stop hemorrhage
Has three main contributing systems (vascular, platelets, coagulation)
Hemostasis
3 main contributing systems to hemostasis
Vascular (vascular activities slow or prevent hemorrhage)
Platelets (contribute to clot and help activate coagulation)
Coagulation (produces a fibrin meshwork)
Lining cell of blood vessels
Endothelium
Endothelium releases this which is a vasodilator that inhibits platelet aggregation
Prostacyclin (PG-I2)
Endothelium releases this which is a vasodilator
NO
Endothelium produces this which degrades platelet ADP
ADPase
Small disk shaped cytoplasmic buds from bone marrow megakaryocytes
Platelet
Platelet are small disk shaped cytoplasmic buds from these
Bone marrow megakaryocytes
Thrombocyte is another name for these
Platelets
Component with these procoagulant activities:
Provide surface phospholipid for coagulation factors
Provide ADP to activate others
Aggregate to form initial plug
Platelets
Platelets provide surface ______ for coagulation factors
Phospholipid
Coagulation system where:
Vascular injury induces vasoconstriction
Endothelium is activated to secrete vWF
Platelets adhere, activate, aggregate
Primary hemostasis
Coagulation system where:
Soluble coagulation factors –> fibrin
Fibrin clot forms to enmesh platelet aggregate
Secondary hemostasis
Coagulation system where:
Counter-regulatory measures keep it local
Tertiary hemostasis
3 main steps of hemostasis
- Vasoconstriction
- Platelet plug
- Coagulation cascade
Damaged endothelium releases this, which leads to vasoconstriction
Transient effect
Promotes smooth muscle constriction
Vessel caliber decreases
Endothelin
Endothelin is released by this
Damaged endothelium
Endothelin has this effect
Vasoconstriction
Platelets adherence to exposed collagen (ECM) is mediated by this interaction
Glycoprotein Ib (platelet receptor) binding to von Willebrand factor (which is produced by endothelium and platelets, and binds to exposed collagen)
This is produced by endothelium and platelets
Binds to exposed collagen
Is bound by glycoprotein 1b on platelets
von Willebrand factor (vWF)
What is the role of von Willebrand factor (vWF)?
Mediates platelets adherence to exposed collagen (ECM)
Is produced by endothelium and platelets
Binds to exposed collagen
Is bound by glycoprotein 1b on platelets
Platelet receptor that binds to vWF during platelets adherence to exposed collagen
Glycoprotein Ib
This binds to platelet receptor, changing platelet shape to have “sticky ends” (starfish shape)
Thrombin (or ADP or serotonin)
After changing shape due to thrombin, platelet sticky ends have high density of this
Glycoprotein 2b/3a
4 steps of platelet activation during primary hemostasis
Platelet change shape
Glycoprotein 2b/3a concentrates on tips of filopodia
ADP/serotonin released (activate nearby platelets)
Fibrinogen released
Interaction that causes platelets to aggregate
Glycoprotein 2b/3a binds fibrinogen polymer to form connecting bridge between platelets
Role of glycoprotein 2b/3a
Binds fibrinogen polymer to form connecting bridge between platelets
Results in platelet aggregation
Role of glycoprotein 1b
Binds vWF –> Platelet adherence to ECM
Formation of fibrin clot involves a cascade of these enzymes
Serine proteases
Intrinsic pathway of fibrin clot formation starts with this
Begins fibrinolysis
Factor XII exposure to negatively charged surface
Factor XII exposure to this starts the intrinsic pathway of fibrin clot formation
Negatively charged surface
Factor XII activates this
XI –> XIa
XIa activates this
IX –> IXa
(X is skipped)
IXa activates this
VIII –> VIIIa
Extrinsic pathway of fibrin clot formation starts with this
Factor VII exposure to Tissue Factor
Factor VII exposure to this starts the extrinsic pathway of fibrin clot formation
Tissue Factor
Tissue Factor activates this
Factor VII –> VIIa
Convergence of the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of fibrin clot formation
VIIIa and VIIa can both activates X to Xa
Xa activates this
II (Prothrombin) –> IIa (Thrombin)
Factor II aka
Prothrombin
Factor IIa aka
Thrombin
