1
Q

What are the classes of inherited disorders of platelet function

A

defects of adhesion
defects of aggregation
disorders of platelet secretion

2
Q

What is Bernard Soulier syndrome

A

defective adhesion of platelets to subendothelial matrix

3
Q

Where is the defect in Bernard Soulier

A

glycoprotein complex Ib-IX

R for vWF

4
Q

What is disorder has bleeding from defective platelet aggregation

A

Glanzmann thrombasthenia

5
Q

inheritance of glanzmann thrombasthenia

A

autosomal recessive

6
Q

Where is the defect in glanzmann thrombasthenia

A

dysfunction of glycoprotein IIb IIIA

does not aggregate in response to ADP, collagen, epinephrine, thrombin

7
Q

disorders of platelet secretion are chanracterized by what

A

defective release of certain mediators of platelet activation like thromboxane and ADP

8
Q

what are the 2 significant types of acquired defects of platelet function

A

aspirin and NSAID caused

related to uremia

9
Q

what activates fibrinogen to form clots

A

thrombin

10
Q

What factors are involved in intrinsic clotting pathyway

A

XII XI IX
X
thrombin and fibrin

11
Q

what factors are involved in extrinsic clotting pathway

A

VII TF
X
thrombin, fibrin

12
Q

how do most patients with from coagulation factor defects present?

A

large post-traumatic ecchymoses or hematomas or prolonged bleeding

13
Q

where are sites of bleeding from factor defect

A

GI and urinary tracts

weight bearing joints

14
Q

What are the most common inherited disorders of coagulation pathway

A

VIII (hemophilia A)
IX (hemophilia B)
vWF

15
Q

what is characteristic of acquired deficiencies of coagulation factors

A

multiple factors

decreased protein synthesis or shortened half life

16
Q

vit K deficiency affects coagulation how

A

impaired synthesis of factors II, VII IX X and protein C

17
Q

how does liver disease affect coagulation factors

A

many are made in the liver

18
Q

how are coagulation factors affected in DIC

A

multiple coagulation factors are consumed and deficient

19
Q

what cause single factor acquired deficiency

A

autoAb

very rare

20
Q

Where is factor VIII made

A

sinusoidal endothelial cells and kupffer cells in the liver

21
Q

where is vWF produced

A

endothelial cells and megakaryocytes

22
Q

what is the role of vWF

A

binds factor VIII and increases its circulation half life

promotes adhesion of platelets to subendothelial matrix thorugh GpIb-IX

23
Q

where is vWF stored

A

alpha granules of megakaryocyts

24
Q

what is the most common inherited bleeding disorder of humans in US

A

vWF disease

25
Q

what are signs of vw disease

A

mild bleeding

spontaneous bleeding from mucous membranes, excessive wound bleeding or menorrhagia

26
Q

what is inheritance pattern of vw disease

A

autosomal dominant but some are autosomal recessive

27
Q

what else can vWF bind to besides VIII

A

GpIIb IIIa intefrins

28
Q

how is vwF measured

A

ristocetin agglutination test

measured with aggregaometer

29
Q

What types vw are assoc with quantitative defects in vwF

A

type I and III

30
Q

characteristics type I VW disease

A

autosomal dominant

mild to mod deficiency

31
Q

describe type III VW disease

A

autosomal recessive with very low levels vWF and severe manifestations

32
Q

what causes type 3 VW disease

A

deletions or frameshift mutations involving both alleles

33
Q

is type 2 VW disease characterized by quantitative or qualitative defects

A

qualitative

34
Q

what is most common subtype type 2 VW disease

A

2A

35
Q

inheritance 2A VW disease

A

autosomal dominant

missense mutations

36
Q

how common is type 2 VW disease

A

25% of all cases assoc with mild-moderate bleeding

37
Q

are platelet counts low in VW disease

A

no

38
Q

what will vwD cause a deficiency in

A

factor VIII levels

39
Q

are PT and PTT normal in vw D

A

prolonged PTT in type I and 3

40
Q

what is Tx for mild vwD

A

desmospressin which stimulates vWF release

or infusions of VIII and vWF
