Normal epithelium combats clotting via several factors. Name 3.
1. Releases NO & prostacyclin - plt inhibitors
2. releasesTPA - activates plaminogen -> plasmin which breaks down fibrin(ogen)
3. Releases heparin like glycoaminosides
4. Degrades ADP(a platelet activator) by releasing ADPase
What are the 3 steps in platelet clot formation
1. Adhesion
2. Activation
3. Aggregation
How does Adhesion of plt begin and what factors and receptors are involved
Extracellular matrix (ECM) exposes vWF which allows for formation of ECM-vWF-(glycogen ib/!X/V)-Platelet complex
What occurs during platelet activation (what do platelets release)
Platelets release alpha granules (contain clotting and activation factors) and dense bodies (contain Ca, epi and other pro kinetic molecules)
How does Heparin function
It stimulates Anti-thrombin ~ 1000 fold. Anti-thrombin blocks thrombin(IIa) which is responsible for fibrinogen -> firbrin and amplification of other cascades
Function of factor VII
Binds to TF at site of injury and is activated to VIIa. This complex converts IX and X to their activated form
Function of factor X/Xa.
Factor Xa is localized to injury site and complexes with fVa. Xa/Va loacally catalyzes prothrombin -> thrombin
How does thrombin affect the vWF/fVIII complex?
It seperates them (this occurs locally at site of injury) which activates VIII which starts pro-clop loop
What function does fIXa have?
It bined to platelet to aid in plt activation
What are the 3 major coagulation inhibiting mechanisms
1. Serpins (Antithrombin, TFPI)
2. Heparin
3. anticoagulant proteases (protein C -> inactivates Va & VIIIa. Protein S -> accelerates action of protein C
Which factors are Vit K dependent
VII, IX, X, prothrombin, protein C & protein S
What factors can lead to vitamin K deficiency
1. malnutrition
2. impaired intestinal absorbtion (obst jaundice, sprue)
3. compromised bacterial flora 2/2 antibiotics
How does liver disease affect clotting
All factors except VIII are synthesized in liver. VII has the shortest half live
What percentage of of pts on heparin will develop HIT
5%
Causes of thrombocytopenia (during pregnancy too
1. HIT
2. During pregnancy (GI, preeclampsia, HELLP - hemolysis, incr lft, low plt)
3. splenic sequestration
Prolonged PT with nl PTT is indicative of
fVII deficiency
