|
|
Term
|
Definition
1. Vascular spasm 2. Platelet plug formation 3. Blood coagulation 4. Growth of fibrous tissue |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1. Prevents excessive blood loss 2. Smooth muscle in the vessel wall contracts 3. Vessel diameter reduced |
|
|
Term
Formation of platelet plug mechanism |
|
Definition
1. Platelet adhesion 2. Platelet release action 3. Platelet aggregation |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Platelets detect damage to a blood vessel and adhere to damaged surface |
|
|
Term
2. Platelet release action |
|
Definition
Once stuck platelets begin to change. First create extensions to communicate. Second release their contents- this stimulates nearby platelets and cause vasoconstriction |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Platelets become sticky and adhere to each other. Creates a platelet plug which stops the loss of blood through small holes in vessels |
|
|
Term

|
Definition
Converts fibrinogen to fibrin monomers which can then make fibrin polymers |
|
|
Term
What roles does factor XIII have? |
|
Definition
Creates covalent bonds between fibrin polymers which then create a cross linked fibrin meshwork |

|
Definition
APTT - activated partial thromboplastin time |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Plasminogen converted to plasmin which degrades fibrin clot. Degredation products when endocytosed by macrophages |
