    Coagulation potential (CP), overall hemostasis potential (OHP) and fibrinolysis potential (FP) in plasma of donors and patients with myocardial infarction (MI), stroke (St) and hip joint diseases (HJD) have been investigated using M. Blomback’s global hemostasis assay. Plasma samples of the patients were analyzed with APTT reagent in the presence or absence of t-PA. It was found that the ratio of values of СP, OHP and FP in plasma of patients to those of donors plasma were 78, 60 and 123% at MI; 157, 155 and 162% at St; 128, 131 and 124% at HJD. CP to FP ratio that indicated balance between coagulation and fibrinolytic systems activities were 4.13, 2.5, 4.0 and 4.26 in plasma of donors and MI, St and HJD patients, respectively. These results are evidence of increased fibrinolytic activity in plasma of MI patients. Lag-periods of plasma clotting of MI, St and HJD patients were prolonged by 2.3, 7.2 and 1.5-fold, respectively. Pearson’s correlation analysis between parameters, obtained in vitro studies using global hemostasis assay, and concentrations of the molecular markers (soluble fibrin and D-dimer), which formed in vivo in plasma of MI, St and HJD patients, did not reveal any relationship between them.

    Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis

    Blood clotting or coagulation involves extrinsic and intrinsic pathways, which ultimately merge into the common pathway, forming a fibrin clot.
    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...

    Disorders of Hemostasis

    Hemostasis, the process that stops bleeding after a blood vessel injury, is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the circulatory system. However, disorders of hemostasis can disrupt this delicate balance, leading to either excessive clotting or bleeding. These disorders can be broadly classified into thromboembolic disorders and bleeding disorders.
    Thromboembolic Disorders
    Two factors primarily cause thromboembolic conditions.

    Blood Transfusion01:15

    Blood Transfusion

    Blood transfusion is a critical medical procedure that saves lives and treats various medical conditions. It involves transferring blood from a donor to a recipient. This process requires a thorough understanding of the ABO blood group system and its associated antigens and antibodies.
    Blood Transfusion Overview
    A blood transfusion is a medical procedure used to replace blood lost due to injury, surgery, or to treat conditions such as anemia or cancer. During a transfusion, donor blood is...

    Introduction to Hemostasis

    Hemostasis is a complex physiological process that prevents excessive bleeding when a blood vessel is injured. It's crucial for maintaining the integrity of the circulatory system, as it ensures that our blood remains fluid while still within the vascular network and yet clots to prevent blood loss upon vessel injury.
    The three phases of hemostasis involve many clotting factors present in plasma and several substances released by platelets and injured tissue cells. It is a fast, localized,...

    Blood Transfusion and Agglutination

    Blood transfusion is a therapeutic measure to restore the blood volume after extensive blood loss due to an accident or a medical procedure. Blood transfusion involves drawing a certain amount of blood from a suitable donor and infusing it into the recipient.
    History
    The history of blood transfusion dates back to the 17th century, when early attempts were made in animals. In 1818 James Blundell, a British doctor, performed the first successful human blood transfusion. Later in 1900, Karl...

    Formation of the Platelet Plug

    The platelet phase, the second stage of hemostasis, commences around 15-20 seconds after an injury. It follows and overlaps with the vascular phase, during which blood vessels constrict to minimize blood loss.
    As the injured blood vessel contracts, endothelial cells undergo contraction, revealing collagen fibers in the basement membrane and underlying connective tissue. Furthermore, the plasma membrane of endothelial cells becomes adhesive, preparing the site for platelet adhesion. Platelets...
