It converts inactive factor 8 to active factor 8. 5) Factor 8 changes inactive factor 10 to active factor 10. Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved.

No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC. 69 18.4c Coagulation Phase 5 Initiation of coagulation cascade (continued) Common pathway Activated by extrinsic or intrinsic pathway Four steps 1) Factor 10 combines with factors 2 and 5, Ca2+ , and platelet factor 3 to form prothrombin activator. 2) Prothrombin activator activates prothrombin to thrombin. 3) Thrombin converts soluble fibrinogen to soluble fibrin. 4) Factor 13 is activated in presence of Ca2+. Factor 13 cross-links fibrin monomers into a fibrin polymer. Positive feedback leads to clot formation Clot stops once fibrin fills mesh Extra fibrin is destroyed by enzymes in the blood Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved.
