Q

Hemostasis

A
  1. nerve in surrounding area detect the injury and reflexive contraction/vasoconstriction
  2. endothelin is secreted by endothelial cells which causes smooth muscle to constrict
  3. damage endothelium releases von Willebrand’s Factor that binds to exposed collagen
  4. platelets circulating bind to the VWF via GP1B receptor
  5. platelet changes shape, releases vWF, serotonin, and Ca, ADP, thromboxane A2
  6. this attracts more platelets and activate other platelets that haven’t bound to vWF, ADP and thromboxane A2 bind to platelets and activate them
  7. platelets can bind to collagen, platelets can bind fibrinogen via GPIIB/IIIA linking two platelets together

Secondary Hemostasis

A
  1. trauma Factor III in the smooth muscle binds active factor VII w/ Ca forming a VIIa-TF complex on membrane
  2. cleaves factor X to Xa
  3. cleaves factor 5 to 5a then binds together which activates Factor II to Factor IIa uses Ca as cofactor
  4. IIa activates platelets, factor 5, factor 8, and IX, cleaves factor I to Ia, activates XIII to XIIIa
  5. fibrin forms long protein chains holding platelets together
  6. XIIIa forms cross links bw fibrin chains
  7. XII + phosphate cleaves into XIIa
  8. XIIa cleaves factor XI into XIa + Ca cleaves IX
  9. IXa binds to VIIIa cleaving X into Xa
