Question
Answer
What causes disorders of coagulation   defects or deficiencies of one or more clotting factors or CV problems leading to thromboembolic disease  
🗑
Vit K is indispensable in the synthesis and regulation of normal production of   coag factors 2,7,9,10,and anticoag factors protein C and S  
🗑
Two things can cause abnormal formation of factors or deficiency   liver disease(hepatitis, cirrhosis, and acute yellow atrophy)and deficiency of vit. K  
🗑
One of the most prevalent causes of VIT K deficiency   failure of the liver to secrete bile > decreased absorption of vit K  
🗑
pretreatment with vit K for surgery w/ pts w/ liver disease..route and time frame?   4-8 h before surg, injected  
🗑
Hemophilia A (classic)   most common, def. of factor 8(anti-hemphilic factor)X-linked recessive. affects males transmitted by females  
🗑
Hemophilia B(Christmas disease)   deficiency of factor 9, X linked recessive trait clinically indistinguishable from factor 8 def  
🗑
hemophilia C   factor 11 deficiency, autosomal recessive, both males and females, bleeding less severe  
🗑
Treatment for bleeding Hemophiliac   Plasma, cryo, and factor 8  
🗑
Thrombocytopenia..platelet count?   <100K  
🗑
platelet count <50K   increased risk of hemorrhage with minor trauma  
🗑
platelet count <10-15K   spontaneous bleeding occurs (petechiae, ecchymosis, purpuric spots, bleeding from mucous membranes  
🗑
platelet count <10K   severe bleeding-fatal in GI tract, CNS or resp system  
🗑
causes of decreased platelets   massive blood trans(>10units in 24h)or secondary to other cond. Bone marrow rep.or hypoplasia. also HIT  
🗑
Thrombocytopenia interferes with hemostasis by   preventing the formation of the platelet plug but also stopping the coag cascade  
🗑
Thrombocytopenic purpura   small purplish blotches on the skin, bleeding from many venules or capillaries resulting in small hemmorhages,idiopathic or dev after blood trans.  
🗑
Immune thrombocytopenic pupura(ITP)   common in adult females, sx..bleeding, wt loss, h/a, fever---HIV increase risk for the disease  
🗑
Treatment for ITP   fresh whole blood transfusion, predisone, splenectomy  
🗑
Thrombocythemia (thrombocytosis)   platelet ct >400K asymptomatic until count reaches 1 mil w/ intravasc.thrombosis, hemorhage, or other patho cond appear  
🗑
primary thrombocynthemia   myeloproliferative condition w/ splenomegaly, periodic thrombosis or hemorrhage, h/a, and paresthesia  
🗑
secondary thrombocynthemia   freq. seen in lung, colon, and stomach CA  
🗑
treatment of thrombocynthemia   platelet pheresis together w/ myelosuppresive therapy  
🗑
In sickle cell anemia what causes increased thrombosis?   HbS is exposed to low O2, RBC's sickle and crystals form,can't pass through capillaries, cells rupture=>icterus=>^thromb.=>hemolytic anemia=>decreased O2 transport=>dec.[O2]=>more sickle cells form  
🗑
DIC   acquired clinical syndromew/ increased protease activityin the blood caused by unregulated release of thrombin w/ subsequent fibrin formation and accelerated fibrinolysis  
🗑
DIC results from   large amounts of traumatized or dying body tissue that release great quantities of tissue factor into the blood thus activating clotting.  
🗑
clinical conditions assoc w/ DIC   Arterial hypot, hypoxemia, acidemia, stasis of capillary BF  
🗑
DIC is precipitated by   endothelial damage, tissue damage, direct activation of coag. factor X, but most common cause is infection..gram - bact, fungi, protozoa and viruses  
🗑
Why does DIC cause hemorrhage?   The amt of thrombin entering the circulationduring DIC exceeds the ability of the body's antithrombins(prot C and S and AT 3) to regulate it which results in an unrestricted clot formation that uses up all clot. factors=>hemorrhage  
🗑
clinical manifestations of DIC   simultaneous bleeding at least at 3 unrelated sites with microvascular thrombosis=>improper perfusion and organ system dysfunction  
🗑
thromboembolic disease effects on arterial system   forward occlusion, ischemia, necrosis, gangrene  
🗑
Thromboembolic disease effect on venous system   Deep vein thrombosis=>pulmonary thromboembolism  
🗑
DIC treatment   remove underlying cause, restoration of proper coag-fibrinolysis balance(heparin, platelets, other coag factors)and maintenance of organ viability  
🗑
Major Etiologies of DIC   OB complications, trans rxn, infections, leukemia,crush injuries, acute liver disease, IABP, vascular disorders  
🗑
