Study Notes
Hemostatic Components
- The three hemostatic components are: blood vessels, platelets, and coagulation factors
Endothelium Properties
- Intact endothelium has anticoagulant properties, preventing clot formation and platelet adhesion
Platelet Characteristics
- Functional characteristics of platelets include: adhesion, aggregation, and release of granules
- Platelets are produced in the bone marrow through megakaryocytopoiesis
- Platelets have a lifespan of 7-10 days and are removed from circulation by the spleen
Coagulation in Hemostasis
- Coagulation plays a crucial role in hemostasis by forming a clot to stop bleeding
- Coagulation involves a complex cascade of reactions involving clotting factors
Hemostatic Defects
- Major hemostatic defects are classified under: vascular defects, platelet defects, and coagulation defects
Platelet Function
- The main function of platelets in hemostasis is to form a platelet plug to stop bleeding
Viscous Metamorphosis
- Viscous metamorphosis is the process by which platelets change shape and become more sticky, allowing them to aggregate and form a platelet plug
Primary and Secondary Hemostasis
- Primary hemostasis refers to the formation of a platelet plug, which is temporary and fragile
- Secondary hemostasis refers to the formation of a stable clot through the deposition of fibrin, which reinforces the platelet plug
- Primary hemostasis is reversible, while secondary hemostasis is irreversible
Common Myeloid Progenitor (CMP) Cell
- A CMP cell gives rise to megakaryocytes, which produce platelets
Secondary Hemostasis
- The defining characteristic of secondary hemostasis is the formation of a stable clot through the deposition of fibrin
