Study Notes
Haemostasis
- Haemostasis is the prevention of significant blood loss after vascular injury.
- It depends on a series of events involving the blood vessel wall, platelets, coagulation proteins, and other proteins.
Primary Haemostasis
- Involves the formation of a localized plug in injured vessels.
- Includes vasoconstriction to reduce blood flow to the injury site.
Platelet Adhesion
- The first step in secondary haemostasis.
- Platelets bind to adhesive proteins via the GP1b-IX-V complex to fibrinogen.
- During platelet activation, the contents of preformed cytoplasmic granules, including serotonin, are released.
- Activation and expression of GPIIb/IIIa receptors occur during platelet adhesion.
Secondary Haemostasis
- Also known as the Coagulation Cascade.
- Involves the formation of a primary haemostatic plug.
- Agonist-activated platelet GPIIb/IIIa receptors bind vWf to form the plug.
Tertiary Haemostasis
- Involves dissolving the clot once blood vessel integrity has been restored.
- Fibrinolysis dissolves the clot to prevent localized vasoconstriction.
Coagulation Factors
- The Prothrombin Group consists of factors VII, IX, and X.
- The Fibrinogen Group consists of factors I, V, and VIII.
- The Contact Group consists of factors XI, XII, and pre-kallikrein.
Regulation of Haemostasis
- Haemostasis is regulated by a series of events involving the blood vessel wall, platelets, coagulation proteins, and other proteins.
- Defects in haemostasis can lead to thrombotic and bleeding disorders.
