Q

What is the difference b/w hyperemia and congestion?

A

Hyperemia = Active process due to increased blood inflow

Congestion = Passive process due to impaired venous outflow

Q

Why would Renal Failure patients have non-gravity dependent edema?

A

Because their edema is due to a loss of colloid pressure, not hydrostatic pressure

Q

Why is ventricular hypertrophy such a threat to induce heart failure?

A

Because there is no angiogenesis in the heart tissue. The heart muscle gets bigger without a corresponding increase in bloodflow to support it

Q

what happens to the architecture of the lungs after long-term heart failure?

A

Septa become very thickened.

Q

What is the state of normal hemostasis?

A

Conditions that allow for the fluidity of the blood to be maintained as well as allow for the formation of a solid plug to close a vascular defect

Q

What is factor 3?

A

Tissue factor, made by endothelial cells

22
Q

What factor does factor 3/TF mix with to help start the coag cascade?

A

Factor 7

23
Q

What is the main goal of the cascade?

A

Activate Thrombin

24
Q

What does activated Thrombin do?

A

It cleaves fibrinogen to create the insoluble fibrin

It also recruits more platelets to the clot

25
Q

What happens after the clot has controlled the bleeding?

A

Fibrinolysis occurs to help smooth out the clot and limit its size so it doesn’t disrupt laminar blood flow

26
Q

What is the fibrinolysis molecule released by Endo Cells?

A

t-PA

27
Q

What does thrombomodulin do?

A

Blocks additional coagulation cascade activity

28
Q

What can “trick” endothelial cells into forming clots without injury to the vessels?

A

Microbes
Inflammatory mediators
hemodynamic forces

29
Q

What does heparin do?

A

It binds to thrombin and causes a modification so that it cleaves Protein C instead of Fibrinogen

Protein C is an anticoagulant

30
Q

What factors does Protein C cleave?

A

5a and 8a

31
Q

What does t-PA stand for?

A

Tissue type plasminogen activator, which cleaves plasminogen into plasmin

32
Q

What does plasmin do

A

Cleaves insoluble fibrin to bust up clots

33
Q

What makes vWF?

A

EC’s

34
Q

What does vWF do?

A

It binds to both platelets and sub-endothelial ECM

35
Q

What secretes PAI? (Plasminogen activator inhibitors)

A

EC’s

36
Q

What do PAIs do?

A

Favor thrombosis by limiting plasminogen activity

37
Q

What makes platelets

A

Megakaryocytes in bone marrow

38
Q

What 2 things do platelets need to do to work?

A

Have a contractile cytoskeleton

Secrete 2 Cytoplasmic granules

39
Q

What are the 2 Granules

A

Alpha granules

Dense bodies

40
Q

What do Alpha granules have inside?

A

P-selectin (adhesion)
Fibrinogen (fibrin precursor)
Fibronectin
Factors 5 and 8

41
Q

What do dense bodies have?

A

ADP/ATP
Ca++
Histamine
Epi

42
Q

What bleeding disorders are caused by missing or defective vWF

A

Von Willebrands’

Bernard Soulier

43
Q

What happens when a Platelet has adhered (via vWF and ECM Collagen)

A

It changes shape and releases its granules and expresses binding sites for fibrinogen

44
Q

In normal vessels what two mediators are constantly keeping hemostasis in balance

A

EC: PGI2 (vasodilator)

Platelet: TxA2 (Thromboxane) Promotes platelet aggregation

45
Q

What does Aspirin do?

A

Permanently blocks TxA2. It also blocks PGI2 but the ECs can remake their own Cyclooxygenase to make more PGI2

46
Q

What works in a similar manner to Aspirin?

A

NO Nitric Oxide

47
Q

What factor does heparin inhibit?

A

10a

48
Q

What is virchow’s triad

A

Edothelial Injury
Changes to normal blood flow
Blood Stasis

49
Q

What are lines of zahn

A

Show there is still laminar blood flow and the RBC and platelets are forming in layers

50
Q

What organs will have Red Infarcts instead of Pale?

A

Those with dual blood supply like the lungs or the GI tract
