The coagulation cascade is one component of the hemostasis process. For coagulation
to work successfully, we need both the “Intrinsic pathway” and the “extrinsic pathway.”

Introduction
 The extrinsic pathway gets initiated when there is damage to blood
vessels or surrounding tissue (usually a fast process).
Coagulation Disorders
Hemostasis
Management
 Factor III is released in response to damaged tissue which then
activates Factor VII with the help of calcium ions.
Extrinsic Pathway
Intrinsic Pathway
 The intrinsic pathway (a slower process) is then activated when
factor XI gets activated by Factor XII from active platelets.
Medications
Labs
 Activated factor XI and factor VII cause a cascade reaction which
leads to the activation of factor X.
Clinical Application
Summary
QUIZ
 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.

Summary
• 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
QUIZ
• 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 that
inactivates Ca++ that prevents the blood from clotting.

FUNCTION OF VITAMIN K:
 Needed by liver to produce clotting factors
 Needed to produce clotting Factors such as VII, IX, X and to synthesize
Protein C
 Helps to regulate calcium…keeping it in your bones and out of your blood
Summary
QUIZ
 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

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.

QUIZ
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 body
is 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.

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.

** With aging, the skin becomes thinner so tissues supporting underlying
blood vessels are more fragile

Summary
The Interventional Radiology (IR) department multidisciplinary team work with
patients who have various types of coagulation disorders. 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 not
managed appropriately.
QUIZ
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.
