Q

Explain the process started by VWF

A

VWF binds to exposed collagen

45
Q

What does the Russel viper venom time test do

A

activates coag mechanism at factor X level
can find factor VII deficiency

46
Q

What test is done to find factor XIII deficiencies

A

screening assay, suspended in 5 molar urea solution

47
Q

Define thrombosis

A

inappropriate formation of a platelet or fibrin clot

48
Q

What are the 2 main consequences of thrombotic obstructions

A

ischemia- loss of bleed
necrosis

49
Q

Define thrombophilia

A

hypercoagulability, predisposition to thrombosis

50
Q

Define emboli

A

fragments of thrombi that move through circulation and get lodged onto veins

51
Q

What is the most frequent cause of MIs and strokes

A

arterial thrombosis

52
Q

2 main examples of venous thrombosis

A

Pulmonary embolisms and deep vein thrombosis

53
Q

2 main examples of arterial thrombosis

A

Myocardial infarction
stroke

54
Q

What is the most common inherited thrombosis risk factor

A

factor V Leiden gene mutation

55
Q

What is the second most common inherited thrombosis risk factor

A

prothrombin G2021A gene mutation

56
Q

What is APC resistance

A

a risk factor: factor V leiden mutation causes factor V to become resistant to APC

57
Q

What is prothrombin G20210A

A

a mutation in prothrombin where prothrombin activity becomes elevated

58
Q

What are antiphospholipid antibodies

A

APLAs immunoglobulins that bind protein phospholipid complexes
they increase the risk of thrombosis
non specific inhibitor

59
Q

What are the 3 main types of APLAs in order of importance

A

lupus anticoagulants LACs
anticardiolipin abs
anti beta GPI abs

60
Q

What are the signs of APLAs

A

thrombocytopenia unexplained thrombosis

61
Q

What are mixing studies for

A

to differentiate an LAC from a factor deficiency

62
Q

PTT -> TT ->repeated then PTT is long, if PTT remains uncorrected

LAC
factor deficiency
factor inhibitor

A

LAC

63
Q

PTT long, TT normal,
PTT mix is corrected

A

next PTT corrects-factor deficiency
next PTT doesn’t correct-factor inhibitor or LAC
