FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)
Functions of plateletsImportant role in hemostasis and blood coagulation; secondary role in defending against bacterial attacks
Hemostasis: refers to stoppage of blood flow; however, if injury is extensive, the blood-clotting mechanism is activated to assist

FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)
Platelet plug formation One to five seconds after injury to vessel wall,
platelets adhere to damaged endothelial lining and to each other, forming a platelet plug
Temporary platelet plug is an important step in hemostasis
Normal platelets (positive charge) adhere to damaged capillary wall and underlying collagen fibers, both of which have a negative charge
“Sticky platelets” form physical plug and secrete several chemicals involved in the coagulation process
Formation and life span of platelets (7 to 10 days): formed in red bone marrow, lungs, and spleen by fragmentation of megakaryocytes

19-6 Platelets
• Platelet Counts
• 150,000 to 500,000 per microliter
• Thrombocytopenia
• Abnormally low platelet count
• Thrombocytosis
• Abnormally high platelet count

19-5 White Blood Cells - nomenclature• WBC Disorders
• Leukopenia
• Abnormally low WBC count
• Leukocytosis
• Abnormally high WBC count
• Leukemia
• A malignancy of the bone marrow, often with an
extremely high WBC count, (and the WBC’s are
cancerous- it is not just the # which is abnormal)

19-4 Blood Typing
• Surface Antigens
• Are cell surface proteins that identify cells to immune
system
• Normal cells are ignored and foreign cells attacked
• Blood Types• Are genetically determined
• By presence or absence of RBC surface antigens A, B, Rh (or D)
![Page 10: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
BLOOD TYPES: BLOOD GROUPS The ABO system Every person’s blood belongs to one
of four ABO blood groups Named for antigens on RBC
membranesType A: antigen A on RBCsType B: antigen B on RBCsType AB: both antigens A and B on RBCs; known as universal recipient
Type O: neither antigen A nor B on RBCs; known as universal donor
![Page 11: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Figure 19-7a Blood Types and Cross-Reactions
Type A Type B
Type A blood has RBCs withsurface antigen A only.
Type B blood has RBCs withsurface antigen B only.
Surfaceantigen A
Surfaceantigen B
If you have Type A blood, yourplasma contains anti-Bantibodies, which will attackType B surface antigens.
If you have Type B blood, yourplasma contains anti-Aantibodies, which will attackType A surface antigens.

Figure 19-7a Blood Types and Cross-Reactions
Type AB
Type O
Type AB blood has RBCswith both A and B surfaceantigens.
Type O blood has RBCslacking both A and B surface antigens.
If you have Type AB blood,your plasma has neitheranti-A nor anti-B antibodies.
If you have Type O blood, yourplasma contains both anti-Aand anti-B antibodies.
![Page 14: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So, A person with Type A blood will carry anti B antibodies
A person with Type B blood will carry anti A antibodies
A person with Type AB blood will carry NEITHER anti A NOR anti B
antibodies !!!
A person with Type O blood will carry BOTH anti A AND anti B
antibodies

BLOOD TYPES The Rh system Rh: the RHESUS ANTIGEN the Rh antigen is either present or absent on the
RBCs Rh-negative: RBCs have no Rh antigen
present Anti-Rh antibodies are not normally present
in blood; even on Rh negative blood BUT, anti-Rh antibodies can appear in Rh-negative blood if it has come in contact
with Rh-positive RBCs, such as when an Rh- mother gives birth to an Rh + baby.
Usually it only becomes a problem in a future pregnancy with another Rh positive
baby.

So, let’s practice some ‘type and cross matches: BP, who has blood type B+, is involved in anauto accident and has been bleeding. BP’s
Hemoglobin (Hgb) is down to 7.4 and is dropping. The call goes out for blood donors. BP’s classmates respond, but of the following, who will make suitable donor/s:
A. AN : Type A – D. OP Type O+ G. ABN AB-B. ON: Type O- E. BP Type BP H. ABP
AB+C. BN: Type B- F. AP A+
![Page 21: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
AnswerB+ recipient: Possible donors:
B+ O+
B- O-
B- recipient: only poss. Donors B- O-
![Page 22: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Months later OP, who has blood type O+and had donated blood for BP, is now severely anemic due to a hemolytic reaction to a new medication, and her Hemoglobin (Hgb) is 6.5. BP, now healthy again, and so grateful, insists on donating his blood for OP. Can his blood be used? Of the classmates below, who would be suitable donors?
A. AN : Type A – D. OP Type O+ G. ABN AB-B. ON: Type O- E. BP Type BP H. ABP AB+C. BN: Type B- F. BN Type B- I. AP
A+

AnswerO+ recipient: only possible donor s O+
O-
(because the O recipient will have ANTIBODIES to A and B
antigens, Which would agglutinate types A, B, and AB red blood
cells )

BLOOD PLASMA Plasma: liquid part of blood; clear, straw-
colored fluid; composed of 90% water and 10% solutes)
Solutes: most of the plasma solutes are PROTEINS, consisting of three main compounds Albumins: help maintain osmotic balance of
the blood Globulins: essential component of the
immunity mechanism Fibrinogen: key role in blood clotting (and other ‘clotting factors’)
Plasma proteins have an essential role in maintaining normal blood circulation

BLOOD CLOTTING: COAGULATION Mechanism of blood clotting: goal of coagulation is to stop bleeding and
prevent loss of vital body fluid in a swift and sure method
Classic theory of coagulation advanced 1905
Identified four components critical to coagulationProthrombinThrombinFibrinogenFibrin
![Page 27: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

BLOOD CLOTTING: COAGULATION Current explanation of coagulation
involves three stages Stage 1: production of thromboplastin
activator by either of the following: Chemicals released from damaged tissues
(extrinsic pathway) Chemicals present in the blood (intrinsic
pathway)
Stage 2: conversion of prothrombin to thrombin
Stage 3: conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin and production of fibrin clot
![Page 29: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

THE BOTTOM LINE TO REMEMBER: (the common coaglation pathway)
Prothrombin (factor II), >>>>>> THROMBIN
which activates
fibrinogen ( factor I) Fibri
n Network, clot

BLOOD CLOTTING: COAGULATION (cont.) Conditions that oppose clotting
Clot formation in intact vessels is opposed Several factors oppose clotting
Perfectly smooth surface of the normal endothelial lining of blood vessels does not allow platelets to adhere
Antithrombins: substances in the blood that oppose or inactivate thrombin; prevent thrombin from converting fibrinogen to fibrin (e.g., heparin)
![Page 32: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
BLOOD CLOTTING: COAGULATION (cont.) Conditions that hasten clotting
Rough spot in the endothelium Abnormally slow blood flow
Clot dissolution Fibrinolysis: physiological mechanism that dissolves clots Fibrinolysin: enzyme in the blood that
catalyzes the hydrolysis of fibrin, causing it to dissolve
Additional factors are presumed to aid clot dissolution (e.g., substances that activate profibrinolysin)
![Page 33: FORMED ELEMENTS OF BLOOD (cont.)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/56816524550346895dd7a927/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

• Fibrinolysis
• Slow process of dissolving clot
• Thrombin and tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA)
• Activate plasminogen
• Plasminogen produces plasmin
• Which digests fibrin strands

THE BIG PICTURE: BLOOD AND THE WHOLE BODY
Blood plasma transports substances, including heat, around the body, linking all body tissues together Substances can be transported between almost any two
points in the body Blood tissue contains formed elements—blood cells
and platelets RBCs assist in the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide WBCs assist in the defense mechanisms of the whole
body Platelets prevent loss of the fluid that constitutes the
internal environment No organ or system of the body can maintain proper
levels of nutrients, gases, or water without direct or indirect help from blood Other systems assist the blood
Blood is useless unless it continues to transport, defend, and maintain balance
