SECONDARY HEMOSTASIS Flashcards
Fibrin clot is digested by
plasmin
Sequential process by which multiple plasma
enzymes, cofactors, and other related
substances interact in sequence to form an
insoluble fibrin clot
Coagulation
May be subdivided into zymogens and cofactors
procoagulants
To maintain a complex and delicate balance
between thrombosis and abnormal bleeding
regulatory proteins
Proteins that promote clotting
procoagulants
Physiologic inhibitors
Present in the plasma
o Anti-thrombin III
o Complement inhibitor
o A2 macroglobulin
o A1 anti-trypsin
During clotting, procoagulants are sequentially
activated, producing a
localized thrombus
Factor IV is
calcium
All are serine proteases except:
Factor I, III, V, VIII, HMWK, XIII
(transglutaminase)
