It should be polymerized *ONCE A SMALL LETTER a IS
Factor XIII is responsible for WRITTEN AFTER THE ROMAN
the polymerization *if FXIII is NUMERAL, IT IS ALREADY
lacking, the person continues ACTIVATED*

INITIATION OF BLOOD CLOTTING
CLOT activates the rate limiting steps
it is the fibrin itself of clotting
Stops the bleeding of the blood 1. Trauma to the vascular wall and
vessel adjacent cells (Extrinsic)
a STABLE CLOT is composed of 2. Contact of blood with damaged
fibrin polymers, platelets, RBC and endothelial cells (Intrinsic)
most of the Coagulation Factors 3. Trauma to the blood (Intrinsic)
HEMATOMA
Rupture of vessel with intact skin
so the blood forms under the skin
COAGULATION FACTORS exists in
the plasma (pro-coagulant/non-active)
FACTOR SYNONYMS
Factor I Fibrinogen
Factor II Prothrombin
Factor III Tissue Factor /
Thromboplastin
Factor IV Calcium Ion
Factor V Labile Factor /
Proaccelerin
Factor VII Stable Factor /
Proconvertin
Factor VIII Antihemophilic Common Pathway (the prothrombin
Factor A converting enzyme is found here in the
Factor IX Antihemophilic B/ activation of FX)
Christmas factor FACTOR X FXa [prothrombin
Factor X Stuart Prower activator] that converts
Factor prothrombin to thrombin
Factor XI Antihemophilic C/ Thrombin converts fibrinogen to
Plasma fibrin
Thromboplastin Fibrin is stabilized by Factor XIII
Antecedent to produce a stable clot
Factor XII Hageman factor
Factor XIII Fibrinogen Extrinsic Pathway
Stabilizing Factor Caused by tissue trauma
High Molecular Fitzgerald factor Shorter and rapid
Weight Kininogen ONLY 2 FACTORS: FIII and FVII
Prekallikrein Fletcher factor

Involves the release of Factor III 1. Blue top/citrate deionizes
that immediately activates Factor calcium
VII 2. Gray top/oxalate precipitates
The Combination of FIII and calcium
FVII automatically converts FX
FXa CLOT RETRACTION
Going to common pathway After sometime in coagulation,
the clot will retract, forming the
Intrinsic Pathway serum
Begins with the FXII FXIIa As the clot retracts, the edges of
FXI FXIa the broken blood vessels are
FIX FIXa that combines with pulled together (approximation),
FVIII that activates FX to Xa contributing to the ULTIMATE
Going to common Pathway STATE OF HEMOSTASIS
Plasma formed when blood is
*some people lack Factor VIII placed in an anticoagulation tube;
(HEMOPHILIA) so the person contains coagulation factors
continues bleeding because
when nothing combines with FIX, Serum formed when blood is
FX is not activated placed in a tube that allows
coagulation; no coagulation factors is
present in the serum because they are
all present in the clotted blood
Liquid portion of the clotted blood
