[Changes in the coagulational hemostasis system in venous thromboembolism]
The work is based on the results of examination of 51 patients, suffering various clinical variants of venous thromboembolism. There were adduced such indexes of the coagulational hemostasis systems, as the coagulation activation, anticoagulant and fibrinolytic. It was established, that disorders in the coagulational hemostasis system may be manifested by increase in activity of the coagulation activation system or by decrease in activity of anticoagulant or fibrinolytic system. The disorders in the coagulational hemostasis system causes the pulmonary thromboembolism occurrence.

Disorders of Hemostasis
Thromboembolic Disorders
Two factors primarily cause thromboembolic conditions.
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which forms a...
