🗑
|
||||
| Prolonged PT with normal APTT and TT | Factor VII deficiency
🗑
|
||||
| Prolongation of APTT and PT with normal TT | Factor X, V or II deficiency, patients receiving Warfarin or with liver disease
🗑
|
||||
| Prolongation of APTT, PT and TT | Heparin therapy (activated antithrombin III) or a complex deficiency state (DIC, abnormal fibrinogen, fibrinogen deficiency)
🗑
|
||||
| Dense platelet granules contain... | Calcium and ADP
🗑
|
||||
| Alpha granules | Secondary mediators of coagulation
🗑
|
||||
| Primary platelet activation | Platelet monolayer attached to vWF or collagen on the subendothelial layer
🗑
|
||||
| Secondary platelet activation | Release of calcium, ADP and synthesis of thromboxane A2 to activate surrounding platelets.
Cross-linking with fibrinogen
🗑
|
||||
| Von Willebrand's Factor | Large multimeric protein found in the subendothelium, made by the endothelium. Carrier for FVIII in the blood
🗑
|
||||
| Desmopressin | Releases vWF from endothelial cells for the treatment of vWF deficiency
🗑
|
||||
| Factor V and VIII | Clotting cofactors
🗑
|
||||
| Coagulation cascade: Initiation | Release of TF, binds FVII in blood, activates FX which causes the production of a small amount of thrombin
🗑
|
||||
| Coagulation cascade: Amplification | Positive feedback by thrombin activates extrinsic pathway
🗑
|
||||
| Coagulation cascade: Clot Formation | Large amounts of thrombin are present, fibrinogen is broken down to fibrin monomers.
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| Binding site of unfractionated heparin | Thrombin and Xa
🗑
|
||||
| Binding site of LMWH | Factor Xa
🗑
|
||||
| Factors that decrease effectiveness of warfarin | High intake of green leafy vegetables, administration of vitamin K
🗑
|
||||
| Factors that inctrase effectiveness of warfarin | Poor diet, antibiotics (roxithromycin), NSAIDs, liver disease or congestion
🗑
|
||||
| Dabigatron | Thrombin inhibitor
🗑
|
||||
| Haemophilia A | X-linked recessive deficiency of Factor VIII
🗑
|
||||
| Haemophilia B | X-linked recessive deficiency of Factor IX
🗑
|
||||
| Severe haemophilia | <1% of normal factor levels
🗑
