  5. Process- primary haemostasis • In a normal individual, coagulation is initiated within 20 seconds after an injury occurs to the blood vessel damaging the endothelial cells. • Platelets immediately form a haemostatic plug at the site of injury. This is called primary haemostasis.

  6. Secondary haemostasis • Secondary haemostasis then follows—plasma components called coagulation factors respond (in a complex cascade) to form fibrin strands which strengthen the platelet plug. • Contrary to popular belief, coagulation from a cut on the skin is not initiated by air or drying out, but by platelets adhering to and activated by collagen in the blood vessel endothelium. • The activated platelets then release the contents of their granules, these contain a variety of substances that stimulate further platelet activation and enhance the haemostatic process.

  7. Coagulation cascade • The coagulation cascade of secondary hemostasis has two pathways, the Contact Activation pathway (formerly known as the Intrinsic Pathway) • And the Tissue Factor pathway (formerly known as the Extrinsic pathway) that lead to fibrin formation. • It was previously thought that the coagulation cascade consisted of two pathways of equal importance joined to a common pathway. • It is now known that the primary pathway for the initiation of blood coagulation is the Tissue Factor pathway. The pathways are a series of reactions, in which a zymogen (inactive enzyme precursor) of a serine protease and its glycoprotein co-factor are activated to become active components that then catalyze the next reaction in the cascade

  12. Platelets: • Bone marrow – Megakaryocytes – • Life span 7-10d, N.count – 150-400x109/l • 36 hours in spleen - 1/3 of plt in spleen • Functions: • Hemostatic plug formation • Coagulation factors - release, synthesis • Surface binding sites for fibrinogen, VWF • Surface platelet antigens, HPA1

  13. I (fibrinogen • II (prothrombin) • Tissue factor • Calcium • V (proaccelerin, labile factor) • VI • VII (stable factor) • VIII (antihemophilic factor) • IX (Christmas factor) • X (Stuart-Prower factor) • XI (plasma thromboplastin antecedent) • XII (Hageman factor) • XIII (fibrin-stabilizing factor) • von Willebrand factor

  14. Tests of Hemostasis: • Screeningtests: • Bleeding.T - To test Platelet & BV function • Prothrombin.T – Extrinsic, aPTT – Instrinsic • Thrombin.T – Both paths. (DIC) • Specifictests: • Factor assays – • Tests of thrombosis – TT, FDP, DDA, • Platelet function studies: • Adhesion, Aggregation, Release & PG pathway tests. • Bone Marrow study

  15. Summary • Complex system to keep blood fluid • To block leakage on injury. • BV, PLT & Coagulation • Complex inhibitory mechanisms • Complex thrombolysis mechanisms. • Screening tests: BT, CT (PT, aPTT) • Special tests: Factor assay, PLT function etc.

  16. Disorders of Hemostasis • Vasculardisorders – • Scurvy, easy bruising, Henoch-Schonlein purpura. • Plateletdisorders • Quantitative - Thrombocytopenia • Qualitative - Platelet function disorders – Glanzmans • Coagulationdisorders • Congenital - Haemophilia (A, B), Von-Willebrands • Acquired - Vitamin-K deficiency, Liver disease • Mixed/Consumption: DIC
