  7. HEMOSTASIS Haemostasis or Hemostasis (Greek: aimóstasis, from aíma "blood" + stásis "stagnation") is a complex process which continually ensures: prevention of spontaneous blood loss and stops hemorrhage caused by damage of vascular system Most times this includes the changing of blood from a fluid to a solid state and then to fluid state.

  8. Function of Haemostasis Arrests bleeding Keeps blood in fluid state Repair and reestablish the blood flow through the injured vessels Remove haemostatic plug If any of the above functions is exaggerated or impaired it will cause either thrombosis or hemorrhage respectively; so hemostasis is a balance between thrombosis and hemorrhage

  9. Without this balance, the individual may experience either excessive bleeding (poor clot formation or excessive Fibrinolysis) Vaso-occlusion (uncontrolled formation of thrombin in vascular system, occluding vessels and depriving organs of blood). asilmi

  10. HEMOSTASIS • There are certain conditions associated with excessive bleeding are referred to as: Hypo-coagulablestates. Such as, Hemophilia or deficiency in one of the plasma coagulation proteins such as factors VIII. Acquired conditions such as DIC, Liver and Kidney diseases. • In addition to Coagulation promotion, vessel injury initiates Fibrinolysis through endothelial cell release of tissue Plasminogen activators (tPAS). • This is to ensure that excessive coagulation does not occur. asilmi

  11. HEMOSTASIS Role of Coagulation in Hemostasis • Coagulation: Is the process where by on vessel injury, Plasma protein, Tissue factors and Calcium interact on the surface of the platelets to form a Fibrin clot. • Platelets provide a surface for the coagulation reaction, and interact with fibrin to form a stable platelet fibrin clot. asilmi

  12. HEMOSTASIS • Tissue factors (except Ca and Tissue Thromboplastin) normally circulate in the plasma as inactive proteins. • On activation some factors form enzymatic proteins known as Seiren Proteasesthat activate other specific factors in the coagulation sequence. • Other conditions are related to uncontrolled thrombosis are called Hyper-coagulable state. This is related to an appropriate formation of thrombiin the vascular vessels that occludenormal blood flow. asilmi

  13. Mechanism of Hemostasis Haemostasis involves a series of delicately balanced physical and biochemical changes following an injury to a blood vessel . As the most immediate response, the blood vessel constrict Then platelets adhere and aggregate at the site of the injury and form a plug

  14. Mechanism of Hemostasis These activated platelets secretes substances that initiate the coagulation factors which interact serially, forming a fibrin network or clot in which white cells, red cells and platelets are trapped and form a solid plug of blood ( coagulation) which seals off the injury vessel completely. Finally slow lysis of the clot, fibrinolysis, begins and the site of the injury is repaired.

  15. Components of normal hemostasis vessels Tissue Tissular coagulation factor Platelets Thrombocytic Platelet Coagulationfactors Coagulation (activator & inhibitors) Humoral ( plasma factors) Fibrinolysis (activater & inhibitors)

  16. The effectiveness or failure of haemostatic mechanism to control bleeding depends on : • The type & degree of injury. • The size & ability of injured vessel to contract. • The pressure within the vessel & surrounding tissues. • The availability & activity of the platelets. • The quantity & functional ability of blood clotting factors. • The absence of inhibitors.

  17. Hemostasis The hemostatic components remain inert in the presence of intact vascular tissue or endothelium Following injury, each component must function optimally.

  18. Vessel wall, Blood flow & Coagulation Substances asilmi

  19. In Case if there is an Endothelial Injury(Bleeding must be prevented at site of injury) asilmi

  20. Flow must be Maintained asilmi

  21. Virchow Law There are threehaemostatic components: • 1- The extra-vascular (The tissues surrounding blood vessels) involved in Hemostasis when local vessel is injured. It plays a part in Hemostasis by providing back-pressure on the injured vessel through swelling and trapping of escaped blood. asilmi

  22. HEMOSTASIS The three haemostatic components • 2- Thevascular(The blood vessels through which blood flow) it depends on the size, amount, of smooth muscle within their walls and integrity of the endothelial cell lining. • 3- The intra-vascular(The platelets and plasma proteins that circulate within the blood vessels). These components are involved in Coagulation (clot or thrombus formation) or Fibrinolysis (clot or thrombus dissolution). asilmi

  24. Phases Three –phase process • Primary hemostasis • Coagulation (secondary hemostasis) • Fibrinolysis (Tertiary hemostasis)

  25. Phases cont’d I. Primary hemostasis • Involves • Blood vessels (vascular vasoconstriction phase and release of tissue or exogenous factors) • Thrombocytes (platelate or endothelial –thrombocyte phase, platelate aggregation and release of platelate factors). • After 3 to 5 minutes , blood flow is arrested with the formation of a platelate plug.

  26. Phases cont’d II. Coagulation • Involves • Plasma coagulation factors (plasma phase) • Platelate factor 3 • provides for definitive hemostasis • Takes 5 to 10 minutes by formation of fibrin • Reinforces the platelate plug.

  27. Phases cont’d III Fibrinolysis Essential final step in any hemostasis mechanism, Enabling in 48 to 72 hours, and a Return to normal by destroying fibrin and healing the injured vessel.

  28. I. Primary hemostasis • Is a result of a three –way interaction between: • Vascular wall • Platelets • plasma coagulation factors • Triggered by • Small injuries to blood vessels • The plasma coagulation factors desquamation (damaging of epithelial cells in pinpricks)

  29. Primary hemostasis Involves: Vasoconstriction Platelet adhesion Platelet aggregation Platelet secretion

  30. HEMOSTASIS Role of Blood Vessels in Hemostasis • Blood flows through the vascular system to and from all parts of the body. The vascular system consists of capillaries, arteries, and veins. • Blood normally carried within vessels whose physical capabilities include Contraction (narrowing) and Dilation, which are controlled by the smooth muscle of the vessel media. asilmi

  31. HEMOSTASIS • Vasoconstriction and Vasodilatationprovide the means for control blood flow rate and blood pressure. • Substances released from the endothelial cells and sub- endothelial smooth muscles also contribute to normal blood flow and prevent abnormal formation of clot. asilmi

  41. Vascular NO functions NO inhibits platelets' and leucocytes' adhesion to endothelial cells. It inhibits platelet aggregation It facilitates the dissolution of small platelet aggregates. NO affect the fibrinolytic activity by regulating the release of t-PA & PAI-1. The crucial role of vascular NO in the control of blood fluidity has been demonstrated by the regulation of the bleeding time in humans.
