Question
Answer
When blood is removed from the body and placed in a glass test tube, it clots fairly quickly , what is needed for this process   Calcium ions are required for this process. Addition of EDTA or citrate prevents clotting by binding calcium.  
🗑
Clotting can be initiated in vitro at a later time by   adding back an excess of calcium ions.  
🗑
The clotting time after recalcification can be shortened by   adding an emulsion of negatively-charged phospholipids (PL).  
🗑
The clotting time is further shortened to 21-32 sec by preincubation of the plasma with   particulate substances such as kaolin (insoluble aluminum silicate).  
🗑
The reaction initiated by kaolin, PL, and calcium is termed the   activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) test.  
🗑
the clotting time of recalcified plasma can be shortened to 11-12 sec by adding   "thromboplastin" (a saline brain extract containing tissue factor, a lipoprotein described below).  
🗑
The reaction initiated by thromboplastin and calcium is termed   the prothrombin time (PT) test.  
🗑
Many patients with inherited bleeding disorders have prolongation   of the aPTT, the PT, or both.  
🗑
A patient with a prolonged aPTT and a normal PT is considered to have a   intrinsic" coagulation pathway  
🗑
The name indicates that   all of the components of the aPTT test, except kaolin, are "intrinsic" to the plasma.  
🗑
a patient with a prolonged PT and a normal aPTT has a defect   in the "extrinsic" coagulation pathway (tissue factor is "extrinsic" to the plasma).  
🗑
Prolongation of both the aPTT and the PT suggests   that the defect lies in a common pathway.  
🗑
At each stage a precursor protein (zymogen) is converted to an active protease by   cleavage of one or more peptide bonds in the precursor molecule  
🗑
The types of components that can be involved at each stage include the following:   (a) a protease (from the preceding stage) (b) a zymogen (c) a non-enzymatic protein cofactor (d) calcium ions (e) an organizing surface (provided by a phospholipid emulsion in vitro or by platelets in vivo)  
🗑
The final protease generated is   thrombin (factor IIa).  
🗑
Thrombin converts the soluble protein fibrinogen   into an insoluble fibrin gel, which is strengthened further by covalent cross-linking catalyzed by factor XIIIa.  
🗑
The blood vessels act to prevent bleeding by three mechanisms   vasocontriction, diversion and activation  
🗑
A transient vasospasm, especially in the capillaries   is the first response of a blood vessel to injury.  
🗑
Blood is diverted from the injured vessel to collateral circulation   where the vessels are intact.  
🗑
The inner surface of normal vasculature   is smooth and coated with anticoagulant factors.  
🗑
When the endothelium is damaged   collagen fibers are exposed and thromboplastin and vonWillebrand factor leak from the injured cells.  
🗑
Activation occurs due to the contact of   of platelets with these collagen fibers and the released vonWillebrand factor.  
🗑
The coagulation system is activated when   hen blood proteins contact tromboplastin leaking from damaged tissue cells.  
🗑
Platelets (thrombocytes) are   cellular fragments of megakaryocytes, mature cells located in the bone marrow.  
🗑
As these cytoplasmic fragments are released   they enter the circulation, where their mean survival time is approximately ten days.  
🗑
The function of the platelet is   primary hemostasis—the formation of a platelet plug. This is initiated by adhesion.  
🗑
The cell membranes dissolve and viscous metamorphosis occurs   as a fragile jellylike plug is formed (imagine sneezing right after a nosebleed stops—it’s the platelet plug that comes out).  
🗑
This platelet mass is   the substrate on which the coagulation system reacts to form a fibrin clot (scab).  
🗑
The coagulation system is a series of   enzymatic reactions that results in the formation of an insoluble fibrin mesh around the platelets.  
🗑
This series of reactions is called   the coagulation cascade  
🗑
Most of the coagulation factors   are protein-based enzymes that circulate in inactive form.  
🗑

Factor X   Stuart factor  
🗑
Factor XII   Stuart factor  
🗑
Factor XII   Hageman factor  
🗑
Factor XIII   fibrin stabilizing factor  
🗑
vonWillebrand factor (factor VIIIa)   is part of factor VIII, but functions independently of the coagulation cascade.  
🗑
vonwillerbrand factor-It is an adhesive protein produced by   by the endothelial cells and the megakaryocytes. It facilitates the attachments of platelets to collagen fibers  
🗑
There are three coagulation pathways,   two that initiate coagulation (the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways) and the common pathway that completes the fibrin clot formation.  
🗑
The intrinsic pathway is initiated by   the contact of blood components with abnormal endothelial surfaces (i.e. collagen fibers). This is a slow process and generally takes several minutes to complete.  
🗑
The extrinsic pathway is very rapid, completing its action within seconds. This occurs when   shed blood contact thromboplastin in the tissues surrounding the damaged blood vessel.  
🗑
The intrinsic and extrinsic pathways merge   to form the common pathway.  
🗑
This part of the cascade converts fibrinogen to fibrin   forming a protective scab  
🗑
Coagulation must be followed by fibrinolysis   the breakdown of fibrin—or we (and our animals) would be giant walking scabs.  
🗑
The fibrinolytic system replaces fibrin with   collagen, re-establishing the normal channel.  
🗑
As fibrinolysis occur, fibrin degradation   products are formed, coating platelets and interfering with further clotting.  
🗑
Define hemostasis and list the four components   Hemostasis is the formation of a solid clot from fluid blood while maintaining blood flow through a damaged vessel, resulting in repair/There are four components/ the blood vessels, plets,coagulation system and the fibrinolytic system.  
🗑
What are common clinical signs of hemostatic abnormalities?   Prolonged bleeding from minor trauma or surgery Petechiae, ecchymoses and purpura Hematomas and hemarthroses Nonspecific bleeding, such as epistaxis, melena, hematemesis and hematuria  
🗑
Describe how the blood vessel prevents initiation of or contributes to hemostasis   by three mechanisms—vasocontriction,diversion and activation.A transient vasospasm, especially in the capillaries,is the first response of a blood vessel to injury. Blood is diverted from the injured vessel to collateral cir,where the vessels are intact  
🗑
Define ‘coagulation system”.   is a series of enzymatic reactions that results in the formation of an insoluble fibrin mesh around the platelets  
🗑
Differentiate between the methods of initiation of the intrinsic vs. extrinsic coagulation systems.   The intrinsic pathway is initiated by the contact of blood components with abnormal endothelial surfaces.The extrinsic pathway is very rapid, This occurs when shed blood contact thromboplastin in the tissues surrounding the damaged blood vessel.  
🗑
What is fibrinolysis and what is its purpose?   the breakdown of fibrin.The fibrinolytic system replaces fibrin with collagen, re-establishing the normal channel. As fibrinolysis occur, fibrin degradation products are formed, coating platelets and interfering with further clotting.  
🗑
Why is it important to test for the number of platelets?   This platelet mass is the substrate on which the coagulation system reacts to form a fibrin clot (scab).  
🗑
What test can evaluate platelet number AND function?   Bleeding time is a method that evaluates both the quantity and function of platelets  
🗑
What should be run with every test specimen in a coagulation system test?   Regardless of the test selected, controls should always be run and used to evaluate the results  
🗑
What is most common test for the intrinsic pathway?   The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) is the most sensitive and specific in-clinic test for the intrinsic coagulation system.  
🗑
What is the most common test for the extrinsic pathway?   is prothrombin time (PT). Like the APTT, it is independent of thrombocytopenia and the results should be within 25% of the control results.  
🗑
What occurs in DIC and what can cause it?   results from the simultaneous overstimulation of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems, causing the formation of microthrombi with concurrent hemorrhage.  
🗑
