Questão 1
Questão
The vascular endothelium protects platelets from subendothelial aggregating substances i.e. collagen
Questão 2
Questão
Vasoconstriction around injured site helps coagulation how?
Responda
-
Reduced blood flow decreases pressure and loss of blood
-
Reduced blood flow brings coagulation factors into tissue contact more readily
-
Reduced blood flow decreases wall diameter, decreasing size of breach
Questão 3
Questão
Why is Fibrinolysis necessary?
Responda
-
It prevents inappropriate extension of the fibrin plug
-
Prevents clotting from damaging nearby cell
-
Prevents clotting in case of infected blood
Questão 4
Questão
To prevent inappropriate prevention of coagulation, where are coagulation inhibitors limited to?
Responda
-
Intact endothelium
-
Breached endothelium
-
Free flowing blood
Questão 5
Questão
Inhibitors are triggered by late products of coagulation
Questão 6
Questão
What is inhibited by the Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor?
Responda

FX reversibly
-
FX permanently
-
FVII
-
FV
Questão 7
Questão
Anthithrombin deactivates several enzymes of the coagulation system
Questão 8
Questão
Protein S & C work the same way
Questão 9
Questão
The Protein C pathway is initiated by what?
Responda
-
Thrombin
-
Antithrombomodulin
-
Antithrombin
Questão 10
Questão
Thrombomodulin works in the free flowing blood
Questão 11
Questão
Both thrombin and thrombomodulin work on the endothelial cell surface
Questão 12
Questão
What is the role of thrombomodulin?
Questão 13
Questão
Excess thrombin binds to thrombomodulin on intact cells, which allows it to be altered
Questão 14
Questão
Protein C acts as an anticoagulant by degrading Factors
Questão 15
Questão
Protein C needs Mg in order to function

Which of the following support Protein C activity?
Responda
-
Protein S
-
Inactive F V
-
Active F V

Name the risk factors for thrombophilia
Responda
-
Alteration in blood components i.e. pregnancy
-
Circulatory stasis i.e. venous problems
-
Artificial surfaces i.e. a STENT
Questão 21
Questão
VTE occurs when blood coagulation overwhelms fibrogenlysis/anticoagulant mechanisms
Questão 22
Questão
Thrombophilia is linked to Lupus Anticoagulant Syndrome

Questão
Dabigatran is a FX inhibitor, Rivaroxabin is a thrombin inhibitor
Questão 29
Questão
Warfarin works how?
Questão 30
Questão
Without Vitamin K, why is coagulation so much slower?
Responda

Non carboxylated factors cannot bind to Ca2+
-
Non carboxylated factors cannot bind to phosphorylated
-
Non carboxylated factors cannot be inhibited
