26
What is the name of Factor XII?
Hageman Factor
27
What is the name of Factor XIII?
Fibrin Stabilizing Factor, Fibrinase
28
What are the steps of the common pathway?
Prothrombin --> Thrombin --> Fibrin
29
What clotting factors are involved in the intrinsic pathway?
VIII, IX, X, XI, XII
30
What clotting factor is involved in the extrinsic pathway?
VII
31
Vascular endothelial injury leads to what?
Platelet hemostatic function and vasoconstriction
32
Subendothelial collagen causes what functions in platelets?
Platelet adhesion secretion (reversible), Platelet aggregation secretion (irreversible), and Platelet aggregation
33
Platelet adhesion secretion involves what neurotransmitters?
ADP, serotonin, Ca2+, fibrinogen
34
Coagulation activation via tissue factor involves which clotting factor?
Factor VIIa
35
Coagulation activation via tissue factor leads to what?
Complexes on activated platelets
36
Complexes on activated platelets involve which clotting factors?
IXa, Xa
37
Complexes on activated platelets cause what? 
Thrombin + Fibrinogen
38
Thrombin + Fibrinogen cause what?
Platelet-fibrin thrombus
39
What is vascular constriction?
Initial response to vessel injury
40
When does vascular constriction occur?
Before any platelet adherence at the site of injury
41
What is Thrombosane A2?
A potent constrictor of smooth muscles, it is produced locally at the site of injury via the release of arachidonic acid from the platelet membranes
42
What is Endothelin
A potent vasoconstrictor synthesized by injured epithelium
43
What is serotonin?
A potent vasoconstrictor released during platelet aggregation
44
What are Bradykinin and Fibrinopeptides?
Vasoconstrictors
45
What is the lifespan of a platelet?
7 to 10 days
46
What are the steps of platelet plug formation?
1. Injury to intimal layer, 2. Exposes subendothelial collagen, 3. Platelets adhere, 4. Platelet adhesion, 5. Recruits other platelets from the circulating blood to seal disrupted vessel, 6. Primary Hemostasis
47
Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)
Intrinsic pathway, common pathway...Factors: II, V, VII, IX, X, XI, XII, and Fibrinogen; High Molecular Weight (HMW) Kininogen and Prekallikrein
48
Prothrombin time (PT)
Extrinsic pathway, common pathway; Factors: II, V, VII, X, and Fibrinogen
49
Fibrin clot breakdown (lysis) allows what?
Restoration of blood flow during the healing process following injury. It begins at the same time clot formation is initiated.
50
If no lysis, continuous clot leads to...
occluded blood vessel --> tissue will die (e.g. heart attack, gangrene and necrosis)
51
Describe formation of the fibrin degradation products (FDPs), tPA (tissue plasminogen activator
Platelet --> Thrombin --> Fibrin -->FDP; Endothelium -->tPA --> Plasminogen to Plasmin to FDP
52
Describe the extrinsic pathway
Vascular injury --> Tissue factor + factor VII --> Tissue factor-Factor VIIa; (Tissue factor-Factor VIIa) Ca2+ can lead to Factor IX (and then IXa) to Factor X (and then Xa) [or directly to Factor X and then Xa] and then Factor Va, Ca2+, Phospholipid --> Prothrombin (factor II) and Thrombin (factor IIa) --> Fibrinogen to Fibrin, Factor XIIIa, and X-linked fibrin (or Factof XIII, Ca2+, and Fibrin)
53
Describe the intrinsic pathway
Surface - Factor XII to Factor XIIa (inflammation, complement activation, fibrinolysis) to Physiologic to Factor XI and XIa (where it can link up to the extrinsic pathway in the Factof IX stage) or Factor VIII and VIIIa (or V) (where it can link up with the extrinsic pathway at the Factor Va and phospholipid stage) or Thrombin (factor IIa)
54
What is the purpose of digital pressure?
To prevent further bleeding
55
What is the purpose of an extremity tourniquet?
To oclude a major vessel proximal to bleeding site
56
What is the pringle maneuver for, and how is it performed?
For liver bleeding. It is performed with a vascular clamp, and it occludes the hepatic pedicle containing the portal vein, hepatic artery, and common bile duct (the liver is supplied by hepatic artery and portal vein)
57
What is a simple ligature used for?
Small vessels
58
How is direct pressure applied?
By "packing" a wound with gauze
59
How does heat achieve hemostasis?
By denaturation of protein that results in coagulation of large areas of tissue
60
What does electrocautery do?
Helps control the bleeding
61
How should the amplitude of electrocautery be set?
High enough to produce prompt coagulation, but not so high as to set up an arc between the tissue and cautery tip
62
How are hemostatic agents classified, and what do they do?
Classified based on their mechanism of action, and many act at specific stages in the coagulation cascade and take advantage of natural physiologic responses to bleeding
63
What are the qualities of an ideal topical hemostatic agent?
Significant hemostatic action, minimal tissue reactivity, non-antigenicity, in vivo biodegradability, ease of sterilization, low cost, can be tailored to specific needs
