Is the BALANCE between clotting and bleeding.

Represents a delicate balance between procoagulant and anticoagulant mechanisms allied to fibrinolysis
Homeostasis
body spontaneously stops bleeding and maintains blood in the fluid state within the vascular compartment

It is the property of circulation where blood is maintained within a vessel and the ability of the system to prevent excessive blood loss when injured.
Hemostasis

Two stages of Hemostasis
Primary and Secondary
Primary Hemostasis

plts release __________( switch inhibits heparin) to maintain normal vascular integrity
PDGF
5 steps to formation of platelet plug:
Adhesion
Shape Change
Aggregation
Release/ Secretion
Stabilization of clot
Adhesion involves (3) critical components:
-Von Willebrand Factor
-Platelet membrane receptor GP1B
