Q

Nitric oxide

A
  • Macrophage produce NO through 2 NO synthase enzymes
  • Causes vasodilation & NO free radicals are toxic to microbal & mammalian cels
  • Reduces leukocyte adhesion
  • Reduces platelet adhesion

Q

Congestion of Liver

A
  • Cardiac failure (right heart = venous congestion)
  • Damming of blood in the IVC
  • Central veins & sinusoids are DISTENDED with blood
  • Hepatocytes around the central vein (necrosis & degeneration)
  • Hepatocytes on the periphery of portal area better O2 (hepatic arteriloles)
  • Periportal hepatocytes (periphery) show FATTY change
  • Histology: central areas are red & depressed COMPARED w/surrounding tan parenchyma = NUTMEG liver pattern
  • Cetrilobular necrosis w/degenerating hepatocytes = enlarged liver

Q

Hemostatic Process (Primary)

A
  1. Reflex vasoconstriction
  2. ECM collagen exposed from basement membrane
  3. Endothelin release causes secondary vasoconstriction
  4. Platelet adhesion DUE to vWF = shape change & granule release
  5. Granule = ADP & TxA2 = FURTHER platelet aggregation = hemostatic plug (END of primary hemostatis)

Q

Hemostatic process (secondary)

A
  1. Tissue factor & platelet phospholipids = THROMBIN activation
  2. Results in Fibrin polymerization-cementing platelets into secondary hemostatic plug
  3. Fibronogen to Fibrin = Crosslinked - STABLE
  • Antithrombic events:
  • Release of t-PA (fibronolytic)
  • Thrombomodulin (blocks coag cascade)-binds with thrombin->protein C proteolysis F 5 & 8

  • Gp2b-3a allows for Fibronogen to bridge platelet (adhesion)
  • Bernard-soulier syndrome:
  • Def. in Gp1b binds w/vWF which allows platelet adhesion to damaged endothelium

Q

DIC pathogenesis

A
  • 2 enzymes involved: Thrombin & plasmin
  • Balance between the 2 determines bleeding or thrombotic tendencies
  • Thrombin promotes fibrin clot formation
  • Plasmin clot inhibiting factor
  • INITIAL phase = widespread deposition of FIBIRIN clots
  • Hemmorraghe=Consumption of platelets & clotting factors
  • Plasmin breakdown fibrin (D-dimers) - proteolysis of various clotting factors = HEMOSTATIC failure
  • Symptoms: Thrombi seen in various organs (brain, heart, kidney, lungs)
  • Ex. WFS (waterhouse), sheehan postpartum pit necrosis
17
Q

DIC Lab Findings & Treatment

A
  • Platelet count: decreased (consumption)
  • PTT & PT = prolonged (intrisic & extrinsic)
  • Thrombin time = prolonged
  • Fibronogen levels = reduced
  • Fibronogen degradation increased - (D-dimers)
  • Peripheral blood smear (fragmented RBCs)
  • Treatment:
  • Volume replacement (Fresh frozen plasma)
  • Correction of hypotension & oxygenation
  • Heparin (PTT or Intrisic)
  • Acute DIC (obst complication) dominated by bleeding diathesis (EXCESS bleeing w/NO clotting)
  • Chronic DIC (aortic anuerysms) thrombic complications
18
Q

Disorders associated w/DIC

A
  • Obstetric:
  • Retained dead fetus
  • Septic abortion
  • Aminolic fluid embolism
  • Infections:
  • Sepsis (gram + & -)
  • Meningococcemia (meningetis)
  • Histoplasmosis (fungal spore/caves)
  • Malaria
  • Neoplasms (tumor):
  • Carcinomas of pancreas, prostate, lung, stomach
  • Acute promyelucytic leukemia
  • Massive tissue injury (trauma, burns, surgery)
  • Misc: Snake bite, heat stroke, liver disease
19
Q

Thrombocytopenia

A
  • Quanitative:
  • Decreased production of platelets (aplastic anemia, leukemia) Bone marrow does not make enough RBCs
  • _Decreased platelet survival _(immunological or non) - qualitative
  • Sequestration <u><strong>(hypersplenism)</strong></u> in red pulp
  • Dilutional <strong>(massive transfusions)</strong>
  • Skin/Mucusosal bleeding
20
Q

Essential Thrombocytopenia

A
  • Uncontrolled proliferation of megakaryocytes
  • Recurrent episodes of thrombosis/Hemorr
  • Platelet count above 600,000
  • Increased megakaryocytes ALSO a feature of CML
21
Q

Quantitative Thrombocytopenia (ITP)

A
  1. ITP (immune thrombocytopenia purpura)-Coag time normal
  2. Pts w/SLE or auto-immune or w/corticosteroid treatment
  • Acute: seen in children after viral infection, Formation of anti-platelet antibodies,_ EPISTAXIS (nose bleeds)_
  • Chronic: seen in woman 20-40 increase in megakaryocytes
  • Antibodies against platelet membrane glycoproteins 2b/3a or 1b/9 complexes detected in BW
  • Megakaryocytes found in bone marrow
  • Treatment: splenectomy normalizes platelet count due to less destruction
  • Melena (tarry feces), Bleeds from mucus membranes
  • Sub arachonoid & intracerebral hems
22
Q

Quantitative Thrombocytopenia (TTP)

A
  1. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (autoimmune or inherited)
  • Def. in ADAMTS 13 metalloproteinases (zinc co-factor) degrades VHMW multimers of vWF
  • presents w/Large vWF multimers that accumulate in plasma.
  • This accumulation promotes formation of platelets microaggregates throughout circulation (DIC) w/endothelial injury
  • Platelets involved in thrombus formation=Thrombocytopenia
  • Symptoms: (pentad/5)
  • Fever, Thrombocytopenia, Renal failure, Microangiopathic anemia (schistocytes pointed RBCs due to destruction), NEURO issues (hallucinations or stroke)
23
Q

Quantitative Thrombocytopenia (HUS)

A
  1. Hemolytic uremic syndrome (children)
  • triggered by infectous gastroenteritis by E.coli 0157:H7 (found in undercooked meat)
  • ANEMIA only no Thrombocytopenia
  • E-coli Shiga like toxin(stop protein production) damages endothelial lining = platelet activation/aggregation
  • Presents: bloody diarrhea, acute renal failure, anemia & **NO neuro **
  • RENAL FAILURE
24
Q

Qualitative Thrombocytopenia

A
  • Due to Defective adhesion or aggregation or secretion
  • Adhesion: Benard-soulier syndrome: Def of platelet membrane glycoprotein (Gp1b receptor for vWF)
  • Aggregation: *Glanzmann’s thromboasthenia*: Platelers LACK glycoprotein 1b/3a = NO fibronogen bridging can occur = INCREASED BT
  • Secretion: Storage pool defects in granule non metabolic ADP
25
Q

Bleeding disorders (vWF)

A
  • Resembles hemophilia
  • Pathogenesis: Defect in platelet function=Prolonged BT, Coag defect due to def of Factor 8 (activated by vWF)
  • vWF functions:
  • Platelet adhesion mol, binds platelets to exposed collagen, Platelets have receptor Gp1B - binds to vWF
  • Complexes w/ factor 8->C protein w/help from vWF prevents degradation of complex
  • DECREASE in vWF decreases 8:C activity (prone to coag)
  • TEST: Ristocin helps determine vWF functtion
  • Lab: Platelet normal, BT increase, PT normal, PTT increased (Factor 8 & vWF)
26
Q

Hemophilia A-8

A
  • X-linked
  • Females are carriers
  • Lab: Platelet normal, BT normal, Prothromnin time normal (Extrinsic)
  • PTT: Prolonged *due factor 8* levels reduced (intrinsic)
  • Symptoms:
  • Easy bruising
  • Hemorrhage following trauma
  • Spontaneous bleeding (knee joints) Hemarthroses
  • Petechiae are ABSENT
  • Hemo B is same as A BUT decrease in factor 9 NOT 8
27
Q

Vit C Role

A
  • Hydroxylation of lysine and proline-collagen synthesis
  • Antioxidants (stops production of free radicals cause cell injury)
  • Prevents nitrosylation: Inhibits amides from binding with nitrites (food perserv)
28
Q

Vit C Def

A
  • Scurvy:
  • Collagen synthesis affected
  • POOR wound healing
  • Bone diseases in growing children (osteoid matrix) - insuff production by osteoblasts - FAILURE to reabsorb catilaginous matrix = cartilaginous overgrowth (Lack strength = BOWING)
  • Hemorrahge & healing defects
  • Occurs in ederly or alcholics
  • Impaired collagen = Poor vessel support(bruising) petechia, impaired osteoid matrix, bleeding periosteum in joints.
