Topic 12a Blood Surface Interactions Flashcards
% of patients receiving Heparin that develop HIT
2-5% of patients receiving heparin
Causes bleeding
% of patients receiving Heparin that develop HITT
0.1-0.2% of patients receiving heparin
Causes thrombosis
HIT and HITT mechanisms ?
Heparin binds to PF4 (platelet factor 4) and induces formation of IgG antibodies
PF4-IgG complex activates platelets and does what to them ? With HIT and HITT?
Decreases circulating number of platelets
HIT defined as 40-50% decrease
HITT involves decrease AND any evidence of
thrombosis
plasma protein adsorption onto surface of ECC amount?
- very quick
* amount adsorbed depends on [protein] & intrinsic surface activity of biomaterial
plasma protein adsorption onto surface of ECC correlation?
correlation between physical / chemical
properties of biomaterial and activation of blood are made retrospectively–not possible to predict the response
plasma protein adsorption onto surface of ECC depends on what characteristics of the surface?
- wettability
- hydrophilic / hydrophobic ratio
- surface chemistry
- surface electrical properties
- roughness / porosity
- subsurface features
- distribution of functional receptor sites
contact activation of blood expose receptor sites on what? (3)
- blood cells
- plasma proteins (factor XII & complement protein 3)
- platelets
emboli formation can be caused by what? (5)
*surgery
*blood activation (fibrin emboli, macroaggregates of proteins and, lipoproteins, fat globules)
*homologous blood (if not filtered- fibrin, RBC debris, platelet and leukocyte aggregates)
*crystalloid solutions (debris/dust)
roller pumps (spallation)
Increased interstitial fluid formation caused by what?
increased capillary permeability
accumulation proportional to duration of bypass
Five protein systems in whole body coagulation?
Contact Activation System Intrinsic Coagulation Extrinsic Coagulation Fibrinolysis Complement Activation
Plasma Contact Activation: Four proteins involved?
factor XII
prekallikrein
high-molecular-weight kininogen (HMWK)
factor XI
For factor XII to be absorbed onto foreign surface of ECC - what two things must be present?
prekallikrein & HMWK must be present
Once factor XII changes shape it produces what?
active protease factor XIIa and XIIf
Factor XIIa cleaves prekallikrein into what?
to kallikrein (strong neutrophil agonist)
