    Components of blood clotting1) Intact Endothelial Cells

    Inhibit blood clotting by antiplatelet, anticoagulant andprofibrolytic effects.

    Negatively charged vascular endothelium repel platelets and

    produce prostacycline and NO which are potent plateletinhibitors. Vascular endothelium further expresses several inhibitors of

    plasma-mediated hemostasis, including thrombomodulin (anindirect thrombin inhibitor), heparin-like glycosaminoglycans, andtissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI).

    Vascular endothelium synthesizes tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), which is responsible for activating fibrinolysis

    Store von Willebrand factor in cytop. granules. Make prostacyclin ~ inhibits platelet aggregation

    2) Subendothelial Cells

    Contain membrane prots and extracellularmatrix prots (collagen) that normally do notcontact blood

    When exposed after injury, platelets aggregateat the site by mediation of von Willebrand factor(vWF) that binds to both platelet receptors andcollagen/subendo cells

    3) Platelets After injury to vascular endothelium platelets undergo alterations

    characterised by three phases.a) Adhesion - Exposure of subendothelial matrix proteins (i.e.,

    collagen, vWF, fibronectin) allows for platelet adhesion to thevascular wall. Deficiency of either vWF (von Willebrand disease) orglycoprotein Ib/factor IX/factor V receptors (Bernard-Soulier

    syndrome) results in a clinically significant bleeding disorder.b) Activation- platelets release granular contents (alpha bodies &

    dense granules), resulting in recruitment and activation of additional platelets as well as propagation of plasma-mediatedcoagulation.

    c) Aggregation- Newly active glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors on theplatelet surface bind fibrinogen to provide for cross-linking withadjacent platelets (platelet aggregation). Bleeding disorderassociated with hereditary deficiency these receptors: Glanzmann

    thrombasthenia.

    4) Clotting Factors Soluble plasma proteins

    Mostly made in liver

    Most are serine proteases and circulate as zymogens(inactive precursors)

    Cascade in which clotting factors are activated by selective

    proteolytic cleavage must have an enzyme (activatedcoagulation factor), substrate (inactive precursorzymogen), cofactor (accelerator/ catalyst), and calcium.

    Coagulation cascade has 2 steps1) Initiation

    2) Propagation Initiation Phase :

    TF VIIa small amount X to Xa small amount II to IIaIf II a not neutralized by Antithrombin 3 then triggerspropogation phase.

    Propogation Phase :IIa ramps up its own formation by activating platelets andfactors (FV, FVIII), setting the stage for formation of the FVIIIa IXa complex.Formation of this FVIIIa IXa complex allows FXa generation toswitch from a TF-VIIa complex catalyzed reaction to oneproduced by the intrinsic Xase pathway.

    The intrinsic Xase complex exhibiting 50-fold higherefficiency at Xa generation.Hemophilia is characterised by intact initiation phase andabsent propagation phase.The intrinsic or contact pathway of coagulation has no role inthe earliest clotting events.The commonly used laboratory tests of soluble coagulationonly measure the kinetics of the initiation phase. Theprothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastintime (aPTT) both have as endpoints the first appearance of

    fibrin gel, which occurs after completion of less than 5% of the total reaction.

    Antithrombotic mechanisms

    Antiplatelet effects : Intact endothelium- prevent platelet adhetion. Prostacyclin (PGI 2) and nitric oxide Inhibits adhetion & aggregation.

    Anticoagulant effects : Heparin-like molecules - Activates antithrombin 3. Antithrombin is a serine protease inhibitor (serpin ) that degrades the serine

    proteases: thrombin , FIXa, FXa, FXIa, and FXIIa. Protein C - inhibits clotting by inactivating factors Va and VIIIa. Protein S - a co-factor for protein C. Thrombomodulin Activates protein C. Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI)- a cell surface protein that directly

    inhibits tissue factor factor VIIa and factor Xa activities.

    Fibrinolytic effects : Plasminogen activator ( t-PA ) - a protease that cleaves plasminogen to form

    plasmin; plasmin, in turn, cleaves fibrin to degrade thrombi .

    Prothrombotic mechanism

    Platelet effects : von Willebrand factor (vWF) - essential cofactor for platelet

    binding to matrix elements.

    Procoagulant effects : tissue factor- expressed by fibroblast in ECM & is produced in

    response to cytokines (e.g., tumor necrosis factor [TNF] orinterleukin-1 [IL-1]) or bacterial endotoxin and major contributorin extrinsic pathway.

    Antifibrinolytic effects : Endothelial cells secrete inhibitors of plasminogen activator

    (PAIs), which limit fibrinolysis and tend to favor thrombosis.

    Testing of coagulation Blood plasma after the addition of Tissue Factor forms a

    gel-like structure (Test for prothrombin time). Numerous tests are used to assess the function of the

    coagulation system: Common: aPTT, PT (also used to determine INR),

    fibrinogen testing (often by the Clauss m ethod ), platelet

    count, platelet function testing (often by PFA-100 ). Other: TCT, bleeding time , mixing test (whether an

    abnormality corrects if the patient's plasma is mixed withnormal plasma), coagulatio n factor assays,antiphosholipid antibodies , D-dimer , genetic tests (e.g.

    factor V Leiden , prothromb in mutation G20210A), diluteRussell's viper venom t ime (dRVVT), miscella neousplatelet fu nction tests, thrombo elastography (TEG orSonoclot), euglobulin lysis time (ELT).

    The contact activation (intrinsic) pathway is initiated by

    activation of the "contact factors" of plasma, and can bemeasured by the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)test.

    The tissue fa ctor (extrinsic) pathway is initiated by release of tissue factor (a sp ecific cellular lipo protein), and can bemeasured by the prothr om bin time (PT) test. PT results areoften reported as ratio (INR value) to monitor dosing of oralanticoagulants such as warfarin .

    The quantitative and qualitative screeni ng of fibrinogen ismeasured by the thrombin clotting time (TCT). Measurementof the exact amount of fi brinogen prese nt in the blood isgenerally done using the Clauss method for fibrinogen testing.Many analysers are capable of measuring a "derivedfibrinogen" level from the graph of the Prothrombin time clot.

    Deficiencies of fibrinogen (quantitative or qualitative) willaffect all screening tests.

    Deficiencies of factor XII, high molecular

    weight kininogen, and prekallikrein are notassociated with clinical bleeding but are ass.with prolongation of aPTT.

    Factor XIII deficiency should be considered ina patient with a severe bleeding diathesiswho has otherwise normal coagulationscreening tests, including PT, PTT, fibrinogenlevel, platelet count, and bleeding time. Clotdissolution in 5M urea can be used as ascreen.

    Venous Formation - Usually from slow bld flow

    - Can occur rapidly. Stagnation of the blood flow initiate thecoagulation cascade production of fibrin enmeshesRBCs & platelets to form the thrombus. Venous thrombushas a long tail that can break off to produce an embolus.

    These travel to faraway sites then lodge in lung (capillarylevel) inadequate O2 & CO2 exchange occur (ie.pulmonary embolism & cerebral embolism)

    Oral & parenteral anticoagulants (Heparin/Warfarin)

    representing a reduction of prothrombin activity to 25% of normal and maintained there for long-term therapy. Whenthe activity is less than 20%, the warfarin dosage should bereduced or omitted until the activity rises above 20%.

    Therapeutic range for oral anticoagulant therapy is defined interms of an international normalized ratio (INR). The INR isthe prothrombin time ratio (patient prothrombin time/meanof normal prothrombin time for lab) ISI, where the ISIexponent refers to the International Sensitivity Index, and isdependent on the specific reagents and instruments used forthe determination.
