22
Q

Outter inner middle

A

Outer - Epi
Middle- myo
Inner - Endo

23
Q

HEMOSTASIS repair injury

A

Vascular phase - injury to a blood vessel causes it to constrict slowing flow of blood

24
Q

Stage 2 plug aggregation

A

Platelet phase injury to the endothelial linning caused platelets to adhere to it additional platelets stick to the finally forming a temporary platelet plug in a process called aggregation

25
Q

Stage 3 vasoconstriction

A

Vascular phase and platelet phase comprise the primary HEMOSTASIS bleeding time test is used to evaluate primary HEMOSTASIS

26
Q

Coagulation fibrinogen thromplastin

A

Coagulation phase this involves a cascade of intention of coagulation factors that converts the temporary platelets plug to a stable fibrin clot the coagulation cascade involves an intrinsic system and extrinsic system which ultimately come together in a common pathway

27
Q

Attp

A

Activated partial thromboplastin time test used to evaluate the intrinsic pathway this is also used to monitor heparin Therapy

28
Q

Prothrombin

A

Pt test used to evaluate the extrinsic pathway . This is also used to monitor Coumadin therapy

29
Q

Fibrinolysis breaks down the clot

A

This is the breakdown and removal of the clot as tissue repair starts plasmin anenzyme starts breaking down the fibrin in the clot . Fibrin degradation products FDPS Measurement is used to monitor the rate of Fibrinolysis

30
Q

Failure to get blood

A

Improperly position needle
Tube has lost vacuum or expired ,cracked
Collapsed veins

31
Q

Blood thinners

A
Asprin 
Platic 
Coumadin 
Heparin
Lovenex
32
Q

Artery

A

Has a pulse clean and bright red blood

33
Q

Vein

A

Has valves dirty and dark red

34
Q

Plasma

A

Is the unclotted blood has amino acid , electrolytes nutrients ,fibrinogen and is also the liquid part of the blood

35
Q

Serum

A

Liquid or fluid portion of clotted blood

You will get serum from yellow red or redgray tubes

36
Q

Serology

A

You get it from serum

Serology determines the disease that is present in the blood

37
Q

Fibrinogen

A

Had clotting factor
