Study Notes
Blood Clotting
- First step in clotting: The coagulation cascade begins with the activation of Factor XII (Hageman factor).
- Antihemophilic factor: Factor VIII is known as the Antihemophilic factor
- Conversion of prothrombin: Prothrombin converts to thrombin during blood clotting.
- Fibrinogen to fibrin: Thrombin facilitates the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin during clot formation.
Heart Anatomy
- Septum function: The septum divides the heart into left and right sides, preventing the mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.
- Tricuspid valve: Located between the right atrium and right ventricle.
- Endocardium: Lines the inner chambers of the heart, providing a smooth surface for blood flow.
Blood Flow
- Deoxygenated blood flow: After leaving the right ventricle, deoxygenated blood flows to the lungs through the pulmonary artery.
- Oxygenated blood vessel: The pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart.
- Pulmonary artery blood: Deoxygenated blood flows through the pulmonary artery
- Aorta: The aorta is the main artery carrying oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body.
