BLEEDING DISORDERS HEMOSTASIS Hemostasis: cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel • Primary 1. VASCULAR PHASE 2.PLATELET PHASE •Secondary 3. COAGULATION PHASE 4. FIBRINOLYTIC PHASE Lab Tests Hemostasis BV Injury Tissue Factor Neural Blood Vessel Constriction Platelet Aggregation •CBC-Plt •BT,(CT) •PT •PTT Coagulation Cascade Primary hemostatic plug Reduced Blood flow Platelet Activation Fibrin formation Plt Study Stable Hemostatic Plug Morphology Function Antibody Damage to small blood vessels and capillaries frequently occurs. When these vessels are damaged, there are three basic mechanisms that promote hemostasis or the stoppage of bleeding. Following damage, there is an immediate reflex that promotes vasoconstriction, thus diminishing blood loss. Exposed collagen from the damaged site will promote the platelets to adhere. When platelets adhere to the damaged vessel, they undergo degranulation and release cytoplasmic granules, which contain serotonin, a vasoconstrictor, and ADP and Thromboxane A2. The ADP attracts more platelets to the area, and the thromboxane A2 promotes platelet aggregation, degranulation, and vasoconstriction. Thus ADP and thromboxane A2 promote more platelet adhesion and therefore more ADP and thromboxane. The positive feedback promotes the formation of a platelet plug. The final hemostatic mechanism is coagulation. NORMAL CLOTTING Response to vessle injury 1. Vasoconstriction to reduce blood flow 2. Platelet plug formation (von willebrand factor binds damaged vessle and platelets) 3. Activation of clotting cascade with generation of fibrin clot formation 4. Fibrinlysis (clot breakdown) VASCULAR PHASE WHEN A BLOOD VESSEL IS DAMAGED, VASOCONSTRICTION RESULTS. PLATELET PHASE PLATELETS ADHERE TO THE DAMAGED SURFACE AND FORM A TEMPORARY PLUG. COAGULATION PHASE THROUGH TWO SEPARATE PATHWAYS THE CONVERSION OF FIBRINOGEN TO FIBRIN IS COMPLETE.

Three Layers of the Blood Vessel Tunica intima: endothelial cells (EC) & subendothelium Tunica media: smooth muscles & extracellular matrix Tunica adventitia: fibroblasts & cellular matrix(loose connective tissue) The Endothelial Cell (EC) 1. Intact, healthy EC produces and is “teflon” coated with prostacyclin (PGI2) – RESTING STATE A vasodilator Inhibits platelet adhesion Acts in opposition to the platelet thromboxane A2 2. EC coated w/ heparin sulfate which activates antithrombin III in plasma & stops thrombosis 3. Synthesis of Factor VIII – vonWillebrand factor vWF synthesized in platelets & EC The Amazing Platelet 1. Secrete procoagulants which promote clotting 2. Secrete vasoconstrictors causing vascular spasm in injured blood vessels 3. as they aggregate they undergo degranulation releasing: serotonin (vasoconstrictor), ADP (attractant)-calls for more platelets to help, thromboxane A2 –(clot promoter) 4. form temporary platelet plugs to stop bleeding 5. dissolves blood clots that have outlasted their usefulness 6. inflammation and remodeling Life of a Platelet MEGAKARYOCYTE (“mama” cell) fragmentation in marrow • • thrombopoietin (TPO) stimulates production produced in liver, bone marrow & kidney 1/3 sequestered to the spleen 2/3 into circulation (150-450,000 per microliter of blood).

These antibodies are known as inhibitors. These patients are treated with high does of FVIIa for bleeds or surgery. This overrides defect in FVIII or FIX deficiency. Longterm management involves attempting to eradicate inhibitors by administering high dose FVIII (or FIX) in a process called immune tolerance Bleeding Disorders Clinical Features of Bleeding Disorders Platelet disorders Coagulation factor disorders Site of bleeding Skin Mucous membranes (epistaxis, gum, vaginal, GI tract) Deep in soft tissues (joints, muscles) Petechiae Yes No Ecchymoses (“bruises”) Small, superficial Large, deep Hemarthrosis / muscle bleeding Extremely rare Common Bleeding after cuts & scratches Yes No Bleeding after surgery or trauma Immediate, usually mild Delayed (1-2 days), often severe Platelet Petechiae, Purpura Coagulation Hematoma, Joint bl.
