FINALS 1: HEMOSTASIS Flashcards
(56 cards)
- physiologic process
- keeps blood circulating in a fluid state
- causes production of clot during an injury
- confines the clot to the site of injury
- dissolves the blood clot as the wound heals
hemostasis
state of balance in the body
homeostasis
sequential process where plasma enzymes and cofactors interact to form fibrin clot
coagulation
procoagulants; plasma proteins that interact to form a clot
coagulation factors
plasma protein that is converted to become a polymer that primarily forms to a clot
fibrinogen
- smallest formed element in our blood
- important key player in hemostasis
platelets
fibrin digestion for the removal of fibrin clot as the wound heals
fibrinolysis
during fibrinolysis, when there is deficiency of pro-coagulants there is
bleeding
during coagulation, if there is deficiency of anti-coagulants it will lead to
thrombosis
initial response of the body when there is an injury
vasoconstriction
initial response of the body when there is inflammation
vasodilation
- slows down the blood flow in the sites of injury
- provides the blood the opportunity to be confined inside the blood vessel wall
vasoconstriction
end formation of the 3 pathways
formation of fibrin clot
what phase is the arteriolar vasoconstriction
vascular phase
what phase is where the plts go to intrinsic, extrinsic, and common pathway
coagulation activation
what phase is the platelet plug formation
platelet formation
what phase is the breakdown of the fibrin clot and gradual restoration of normal blood flow
fibrinolysis
what phase is when there is fibrin strands formation and trapping of blood cells, plts, proteins in the fibrin strand
clot formation and stabilization
activator of primary hemostasis
desquamation
blood vessel injury
key players of primary hemostasis
vascular intima
platelets
timing of primary hemostasis
rapid, short-lived
mechanism of primary hemostasis
pro-coagulant substance exposed or released by damaged or activated endothelial cells
initial response to vascular injury
primary hemostasis
end product of primary hemostasis
platelet plug formation
