What does bleeding stoppage require?
-blood vessel contraction, platelet adhesion, plug formation and plasma
What is typically seen w/ hemorrhagic disease due to increased vascular fragility?
-petechiae and purpura in skin, GI, GU
-hemorrhage into jts, muscles and sub Q tissues, usually not serious
-bleeding time, platelet count, and coagulation time are all normal
Osler -Weber-Rendu Syndrome
aka
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia
-microvascular dilations in the skin, mucosa, and GI tract
-petechiae are often noted on the lips and tongue
-CONGENITAL
Ehlers-Danhlos disease
-mesenchymal defect in collagen synthesis
-leads to less blood vessel support
-CONGENITAL
Henoch - Scholein Purpura
-allergic purpura (purpura are larger in size than petchiae but this disease can also manifest w/ petechiae in the oral area
-a/w jt and GI probs, generalized vasculitis, immune complexes deposit in BVs and in glomerular mesengial regions (renal failure)
Acquired types of hemorrhagic disease due to increased vascular fragility:

Infections and drugs
-capillary damage after meningococcal, bacterial endocarditis or measles lead to joint and GI probs
-immune complex deposition can also lead to drug induced vascular damage (especially antihistamines)
Acquired types of hemorrhagic disease due to increased vascular fragility:

Miscellaneous
-cushing's syndrome
-protein starvation
-scurvy
-senile purpura
Thrombocytopenia
-when less than 150,000 platelets/dl
-when >20,000/dl spontaneous bleeding occurs
Decreased platelet production
-decreased megakaryocytes in BM (ex. aplastic anemia, drugs, or malignancy)
What are 4 examples of decreased platelet survival?
-platelets don't survive more than 4 hours
1. immune reaction to antimalarials
2. Infxns (mono or HIV)
3. Autoimmune ITP or SLE)
4. Thrombotic microangiopathies/consumption (DIC, TTP, MAHA)
Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura
-IgG antiplatelet Abs on surface of platelets, destroyed in the spleen
-*Platelet # decreases leading to an increased bleeding time***
-in kids after viral infxn, can be chronic in young women
-Dx: inc megakaryocytes in BM
****Thrombotic Microangiopathies:

Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
-fibrin-platelet microthrombi deposit in arterioles and capillaries--> fever, thrombocytopenia, MAHA, renal fail
-***childhood, NO neruo deficits, acute renal failure follows GI infx
****Thrombotic Microangiopathies:

Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
-fibrin-platelet microthrombi deposit in arterioles and capillaries--> fever, thrombocytopenia, MAHA, renal fail
-***commonly seen in females, NEURO deficit, no evidence of previous bacterial infx
Isoimmune Thrombocytopenia:

Neonatal thrombocytopenia
-in newborn resulting from development of IgG Abs against PL A1 Ags in fetus
Isoimmune Thrombocytopenia:

Post Transfusion thrombocytopenia
-platelets are destroyed when blood w/ PL A1- positive platelets transfused to pts who are PL A1 - negative, but has been sensitized to PL A1 Ag by previous transfusion or pregnancy
Hemorrhagic diseases due to defective platelets:
Inherited:
1. Bernard-Soulier Syndrome
2. Glanzman disease
Acquired
1. drugs (nsaids)--> defective release of ADP by platelets
***Bernard - Soulier Syndrome
-***defective platelet adhesion
-deficient in glycoprotein Ib (receptor for vWF) leads to increased bleeding time and decreased platelet number (normal PT and PTT)
***Glanzman disease
-***impaired platelet aggregation; platelets may adhere but no plug formed
-autosomal recessive and platelets lack glycoprotein IIb/IIIa with increased BT (normal PT and PTT)
***Essential Thrombocytopenia
aka
Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia
***least common MPD
-megakaryocyte hyperplasia in BM
-increased platelet count w/ giant platelets and abnormally formed platelets (fxn of platelets is impaired)
Overview of Hemorrhagic Diseases due to Abnormalities in Clotting factors
-deficiency in coag factors leads to ecchymosis, hematomas in subQ tissue, prolonged bleeding after surgery, and hemorrhage into jts, GI and GU
Prothrombin time (PT) vs Partial thromboplastin time (PTT)
-PT measures coagulation factors in the extrinsic pathways (i, II, V, VII, X) (Factor VII is unique to extrinsic)
-PTT measures coagulation factors of the intrinsic pathway (8, 9, 11, 12 unique to the intrinsic)
***Hemophilia A
(Factor VIII deficiency, Classical Hemophilia)
-X linked recessive (majority), 30% due to new mutation
-bleeding: trauma or spontaneously- joints, muscles internal organs, brain
-severe: factor VIII< 1% of normal
***Diagnosis of Hemophilia A
-normal BT (normal platelets), normal PT (NO extrinsic factors affected), normal platelet count
-PTT IS PROLONGED (correct w/ mixing normal plasma bc now have factor VIII)
-Factor VIII assay for Dx
***Hemophilia B
(Factor IX deficiency, Christmas disease)
-X-linked recessive
-indistinguishable from hemophilia A but less common
-asymptomatic or hemorrhages
-***Prolong PTT w/ normal bleeding time
-DX only by Factor IX assay
Von Willebrands disease
-auto dominant
-epistaxis, menorrhagia, abnL bleeding after surgery
-NO BLEEDING in JT SPACES
***Dx of Von Willebrands disease
-BT is prolonged and platelet count is normal (bc platelets can't adhere to injury due to dec vWF)
-PTT prolonged due to decrease in factor VIII
Type 1 vs Type 2 Von Willebrands disease
-Type 1 (most common) has decreased quantity of vWF, which normally stabilizes factor VIII, (Fact VII also decreased)
-Type 2 less common (qualitative defect in vWF
Acquired defects of Coagulation
1. Vit K def--> dec factors II, VII, IX, X
-severe liver disease and anticoag therapy can cause defects and severe hemorrhage
ITP vs TTP
1. ITP: autoimmune, young females, kids, IgG Abs on platelets

2. TTP: unknown, only young females, Fibrin, platelet microthrombi
