Hemostasis And Surgical Bleeding -merter Flashcards
Endothelial cells secrete ….. and …… for vasodilation
Prostacyclin (PGI2) and nitric oxide
Endothelin makes ….
Vasoconstriciton
Which proteins are vasodilators?
• Prostacyclin (PGI2)
• Nitric oxide
Which proteins are vasoconstrictors?
• Endothelin
• Tromboxane A2 (TXA2)
• Serotonin
What are the Hemostasis steps?
1)vascular spasm (vasoconstriciton)
2)Primary hemostasis(platelet plug formation)
3)secondary hemostasis(clot formation)
4)anticoagulant & thrombolysis
Which cells trigger intrinsic factors(coagulation factors)?
When tissue damage occur SUBENDOTHELIAL COLLAGEN exposed to the blood and triggers coagulation factors we call it intrinsic pathway
Which cells activate extrinsic facotrs?
Endothel secretes tissue factor (thromboplastin) activates extrinsic pathway
Anticoagulants are given before surgery to pt with risk of thrombosis
What is the most commonly used anticoagulant?
Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) Derived from unfractionated heparin
What are examples of Low-molecular- weight heparins (LMWHs)
Anticoagulants?
-parin
(Bemiparin
Certoparin
Deltaparin
Enoxaparin)
