|
|
Term

| Genetic determination of Rh antigen |
|
Definition
| 3 genes determine the Rh antigen; C D and E are the genes that influence Rh. E is always positive, C and D can sometimes be seen as negative because there are sometimes trace amounts |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Rh- mother is pregnant with an Rh+ fetus; 1st pregnancy there are usually no problems because placents filters well; between pregnancies the mother has developed anti D antibodies called IgG. If she becomes pregnant with a second Rh+ child her antibodies will cause the second babies blood to coagulate and often the child is aborted or there is tissue damage or blue baby (blue because cells rupture and baby does not receive enough oxygen |
|
|
Term
| Thromboplastin Clotting Process |
|
Definition
| thromboplastin is produced in the extrinsic pathway that acts on materials in the blood plasma that activates prothrombinase that activates trombin, which converts fibrinogin to fibrin, which helps blood clot. there is not a clot unless a significant amount of fibrin is formed up to that point everything is soluble. (antithrombins will inhibit the conversion or prothrombin to thrombin which keeps blood from clotting. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| blood clotting, clotting can usually be used to prevent massive blood loss with pressure. Usually cannot help with a very large wound such as a bullet wound. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| refers to contraction of connective tissue in the wall of the blood vessel constricting the vessel reducing the blood flow through the punctured vessel. The pain activation is what causes the vessel wall to contract. |
|
|
Term
| Pain, vessel damage, serotonin |
|
Definition
| pain alerts the vessel of damage and serotonin is the hormone that causes the vessel to contract |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| platelets come into contact with collagen fibers, which make platelets become "stickier" which forms a plug of platelets that reduced blood flow. |

Definition
| ripple effect. one set of cells alerts another and so on. this is the process that forms a clot. |
|
|
Term
| agglutination vs coagulation |
|
Definition
| agglutination is blood cells being held together by antibodies; used in blood typing. Coagulation is the process whereby a collection of molecules in blood clotting act in concert with one another to form a cascade of more and more molecules becoming activated to stop blood flow. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| reduces the likelihood that you will lose a lot of blood from a small puncture. It is activated by damage to a vessel from the outside. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| a clotting method where platelets adhere to a fatty plaque of atherosclerosis and forms clotting on the inside of a vessel. It is activated by damage to a vessel from the inside |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| thrombin formation is suppressed by anticoagulants that are present in plasma |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is secreted by the liver and deactivates thrombin before it can act on fibrinogen |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is secreted by basophils and mast cells and interferes with the formation of prothrombin activator and blocks the action of thrombin on fibrinogen andpromotes the activity of antithrombin. heparin is given by injection to patients with clotting tendencies |

|
|
Term
|
Definition
| a family or hereditary disease characterized by deficiencies of one factor or another, because of its sex-linked recessive heredity it is most predominant in males |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| because the disease hemophilia travels in sex chromosomes it is found more in males because females have XX genes where both are dominant and males have XY genes where the Y is recessive and can house the condition |
|
|
Term
| factor VIII (hemophilia type A) |
|
Definition
| accounts for 83% of cases of hemophilia and afflicts 1 in 5000 males worldwide can be treated with purified factor VIII or transfusion of plasma |
|
|
Term
| factor IX (hemophilia type B) |
|
Definition
| accounts for 15% of cases and occurs in 1 in 30000 males world wide. |

|
Definition
| term used to describe factor VIII (A) and XI (B) |
