Hemostasis

Definition: Hemostasis is the process of stopping blood loss.

This process occurs via the hemostatic mechanism known as blood coagulation

It is regulated by “activators” and “inhibitors”.

If Normal

If Abnormal

Seals blood vessels and prevents blood loss and

hemorrhage

Causes inappropriate bloodclotting or excessive bleeding

Coagulation Disorders

Hemostasis management for patients undergoing percutaneous image-guided procedures can be complex due to the wide range of procedures and equally wide range of patient demographics and co-morbidities.

Some patients are on special medications that increase their risk for bleeding or have internal stents or other devices that predispose them to forming clots.

The coagulation cascade is one component of the hemostasis process. For coagulationto work successfully, we need both the “Intrinsic pathway” and the “extrinsic pathway.” Both pathways are interrelated and link to form the common pathway.

Here is a list of Factors that help to build the coagulation cascade

Sometimes you will see them referenced by their original name. Othertimes you will see only the roman numeral references.

Summary

QUIZ

The extrinsic pathway gets initiated when there is damage to blood vessels or surrounding tissue (usually a fast process).

Factor III is released in response to damaged tissue which then

activates Factor VII with the help of calcium ions.

The intrinsic pathway (a slower process) is then activated when factor XI gets activated by Factor XII from active platelets.

Activated factor XI and factor VII cause a cascade reaction which leads to the activation of factor X.

Activated Factor X with the help of calcium ions, Factor III, Factor V, and PF3 activates prothrombin activator which then converts prothrombin to thrombin.

Next, thrombin converts fibrinogen to fibrin which forms a loose mesh.

Fibrin along with factor III forms a denser network of mesh fibers which can trap RBC & PLT forming a successful clot.

QUIZ

• Calcium plays a key role in the coagulation cascade. It is “required in all but the first two steps of the clotting process.” (Porth, 2005)

• 3 types of calcium (calcium salts, protein bound, and ionized calcium)• **ionized calcium** aid in coagulation cascade

• Calcium = Factor IV

• Only need a small amount so patients with calcium deficiency will not necessarily exhibit any significant effect on coagulation cascade.

• If calcium gets inactivated when it is removed from the body, then blood will not clot.Think about the EDTA tubes that you use to collect blood. They contain chelating agent thatinactivates Ca++ that prevents the blood from clotting.

Watch patients who are taking warfarin as it can decrease clotting by interfering with vitamin K and increase risk for excesses bleeding after a procedure You do not need much—just enough to prevent you from bleeding to death Older patients will need more vitamin K

Is a fat soluble vitamin andwithout it your blood will not clot

Protein C

A special anticoagulant protein. Activated Protein C functions as an anticoagulant, limiting clot formation (down regulates the coagulation cascade). Resistance to activated Protein C prevents Protein C from cleaving to Factor V and/or VIII.

You need the help of vitamin K to help build Protein C.

Do not confuse this with “C-reactive protein.” This is produced in the liver and is a

bi-product of inflammation.

Why are Platelets important for Hemostasis?

Platelets are very important in hemostasis management

You need enough to prevent excessive bleeding, but too many can be problematic because they cause hypercoagulation

Some patients may have internal stents or other devices that predispose them to forming clots

Cancer patients who have decreased platelet count are at increased risk for bleeding

Why are Platelets important for Hemostasis?

CASE STUDY

KLS presents to IR for permCath evaluation due to poor blood flow. This is his third visit to IR in one mouth.

KLS requests a new catheter because he believes something is wrong with the current catheter.

Lab tests prior to procedure reveal:INR=1.0 (0.9-1.3), Plt = 654 (150-350), PTT 24 (25-33)

You change the catheter, but two weeks later he is back again. It makes no sense to keep changing the catheter. It appears his bodyis forming thrombi around the catheter causing decreased blood flow.

Medical Decision: In addition to performing a catheter stripping procedure, he is started on Aspirin 325 mg by mouth MWF to help decrease platelet aggregation. Aspirin would help to decrease platelet aggregation.

Anticoagulants

Medications that Affect Coagulation Cascade

Two commonly used drugs in the US are:

Warfarin (Coumadin) Heparin

Vitamin K antagonist

Decrease production ofFactors II, VII, IX, X

Prevent thrombosis

Activate anti-thrombin III

Blocks thrombin

Warfarin: is “prescribed to ~2 million newpatients per Year in US” (USA Today, 2010).Therefore, your chance of having a patient on this medication is high.

E.g. prescribed to patients with history ofDVT, PE, prosthetic heart valve etc. Anticoagulants help with hemostasisby preventing inappropriate blood clotting in vessels.

They chip away at clot making it smaller

Prevents thrombosis in veins

Close hemostasis management is important pre, intra, and post procedure to prevent excessive bleeding complications.

Remember labs: INR, PT

Heparin - released from tissue basophils and inactivates thrombin.

Warfarin

Points from article:

It takes time for a doctor to settle on a safe and effective dose when prescribing warfarin.

“Roughly 1 in 5 patients are hospitalized for bleeding within six months of starting the drug. Others develop a life-threatening blood clot.”

“Warfarin is the second-greatest cause of hospitalization due to drug complication.”

“Warfarin is prescribed to 2 million new patients in the USA each year.”

Genetic tests can be used to personalize warfarin treatment and decrease the rate of hospitalization.

Hemostasis management is complex due to the wide array of patient co-morbidities of patients undergoing percutaneous image-guided procedures in IR. This complexity is further complicated by the wide range of procedures and patient demographics.

Some patients are on special medications that increases their risk for bleeding or have internal stents or other devices that predispose them to forming clots.

The use of Thombolytics (tPA), anti-coagulants (heparin, warfarin), or anti-platelet agents (ASA, Plavix, ticlid) can complicate a procedure if notmanaged appropriately.

Medical interdisciplinary team understanding of the various coagulation disorders will assist in medical care to patients. This would include pre-op measures to prevent lengthy delays or costly cancellation of procedures.
