vascular congestion: passive provess that results from impaired outflow caused by increased hydrostatic pressure causing vasodilation
hyperemia: an active process that is caused by vasodilation typically due to inflammation |

Term
Compare/Contrast Hemostasis with Thrombosis |
|
Definition
hemotasis: normal, maintains blood in a fluid state and vascular integrity
thrombosis: pathologic, inappropriate activation of normal hemostatic processes in uninjured vasculature |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-vascular injury
-vasoconstriction
-primary hemostasis, platelet function
-secondary hemostasis, tissue factors act with platelets to activate coagulation cascade, production of thrombin which converts fibrinogen to fibrin, fibrin deposits at injury site
-permanent plug formation |
|
|
Term
Role of Endothelial Injury in Thrombosis |
|
Definition
causes alteration in blood flow, caused by injury to heart, ulcerated atherosclerotic plaques, trauma, or vasculitis |
|
|
Term
Role of Stasis or Turbulence in Thrombosis |
|
Definition
distrupt laminar flow, bring platelets into contact with endothelium, prevent dilution of activated coagulation factors by fresh flowing blood, retard influx of clotting factor inhibitors to permit buildup of clots, promote continued endothelial cell activation |
|
|
Term
Role of Hypercoaguability in Thrombosis |
|
Definition
any alteration of coagulation pathways |
|
|
Term
Clinical Conditions Associated with Turbulence or Stasis |
|
Definition
ulcerated artherosclerotic plaque
aneurysm
myocardial infarction
mitral valve stenosis
hyperviscosity syndromes
sickle cell anemia |
|
|
Term
Factor V Leiden as a cause of Hypercoaguability |
|
Definition
mutation of Factor V which inhibits presence of arginine residue that activated CS complex binds to |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
detached intravascular mass that is carried by blood to a site distant from the point of origin |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
an area of ischemic necrosis caused by occlusion of either arterial supply or venous drainage in tissue |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
thrombotic or embolitic events
arterial occlusions |
|
|
Term
Factors that Influence development of an Infarction |
|
Definition
nature of the vascular supply
rate of development of occlusion
vulnerability of a tissue to hypoxia
oxygen content of blood |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
collapse of the cardiovascular system |
|
|
Term
Three Categories of Shock |
|
Definition
cardiogenic: low cardiact output due to myocardial pump failure
hypovolemic: low cardiac output due to inadequate blood or plase volume
distributive: vasidilation causes a state of hypovolemia |
|
|
Term
Compare/Contrast petichia, purpura, ecchymoses |
|
Definition
petichia associated with increased intravscular pressure, low platelet counts, defective platelet function, clotting factor deficiencies
purpura associated with same as petichia and also trauma, vasculities, and increased vascular fragility
ecchymoses associated with trauma |
|
|
Term
Pulmonary Embolism Origin, Destination, Effects |
|
Definition
origin: leg vein
destination: carried through right side of heart into pulmonary vasculature
effects: clinically asymptomatic, sudden death, infarction |
|
|
Term
Systemic Embolism Origin, Destination, Effects |
|
Definition
origin: intracardiac, forms in the heart
destination: lower extremities, brain
effects: infarction |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
nonprogressive: compenastion occurs, perfusion of vital organs is maintained
progressive: hypotension as compensatory mechanism starts to fail, reduced stroke volume, weak pulse caused by decreased cardiac output, shallow respirations, reduced urine output cold and clammy skin
irreversible: cell injury is widespread causing reduced perfusion which damages cell membranes, multiple system organ failure |
|
|
Term
Compare/Contrast Cardiogenic, Hypovolemic, Septic Shock |
|
Definition
cardiogenic: increased heart rate, strengthen myocardial contractions, promote sodium and water retention
hypovolemic: hemorrhage, fluid loss, ascites, hemothorax
septic: gram negative bacteria, gram positive septicemia, fungal sepsis |
|
|
Term
Major Threats to Life with Failure of Compensatory Mechanisms |
|
Definition
initial threat: precipitating event
subsequent threat: changes to organs, electrolyte disturbances, metabolic acidosis, renal insufficiency |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
petichiae: 1 - 2mm hemorrhages into skin, muscous membranes, serosal surfaces
purpura: > 3mm
eccymoses > 10 - 12cm
accumulation of blood in body cavities:
hemothorax: chest
hemopericardium: heart
hemoperitoneum: abdomen
hemoarthrosis: joints |
|
|
Term
Definition of Increased Hydrostatic Pressure |
|
Definition
poor venous circulation and resultant fluid accumulation
localized: impaired venous outflow; emboli
systemic: congestive heart failure, constrictive pericarditis, ascites |
|
|
Term
Definition of Plasma Colloid Osmotic Pressure |
|
Definition
protein concentration in blood is lower than in the interstitial tissue
fluid leaves the plasma and causes a reduced intravascular volume and renal hypoperfusion occurs |
|
|
Term
Definition of Sodium & Water Retention |
|
Definition
increased salt intake with renal insufficiency and increased tubular reabsorption of sodim
causes increased hydrostatic pressure and diminished vascular colloid osmotic pressure |
