BLEEDING DISORDERS
ADENIYI O.A
OUTLINE
• Introduction
• Identifying clotting factors
• Physiology of Blood Clotting
• ◦ Hemostasis
• ◦ Bleeding disorders
• -Vascular disorders
• -Coagulation disorders
• -Platelet disorders
INTRODUCTION
• A group of disorders characterized by defective
haemostasis with abnormal bleeding.
• These causes are broadly divided into 4 groups :
• 1) Due to vascular abnormality.
• 2) Due to platelet abnormality.
• 3) Disorder of coagulation factor.
• 4) Combination of all these as in disseminated
intravascular coagulation.
HAEMOSTASIS
• Primary Haemostasis
◦ Blood vessel contraction
◦ Platelet Plug Formation
• Secondary Haemostasis
◦ Activation of Clotting Cascade
◦ Deposition & Stabilization of Fibrin
• Tertiary Haemostasis
◦ Dissolution of Fibrin Clot
◦ Dependent on Plasminogen Activation
CLOTTING FACTORS
• Factor I : Fibrinogen
• Factor II : Prothrombin
• Factor III : Thromboplastin
• Factor IV : Calcium
• Factor V : Labile factor
• Factor VII : Stable factor
• Factor VIII: Antihemophilic factor
• Factor IX: Christmas factor
• Factor X: Stuart Power factor
• Factor XI: Plasma thromboplastin antecedent
• Factor XII: Hegman factor
• Factor XIII : Fibrin stabilising factor
• BLEEDING TIME: Provides assessment of platelet count
and function
Normal value: 2-8 minutes.
• PROTHROMBIN TIME: Measures Effectiveness of the
Extrinsic Pathway
Mnemonic - PET
NORMAL VALUE: 10-15 SECS.
• PARTIAL THROMBOPLASTIN TIME: Measures
effectiveness of the Intrinsic Pathway
Mnemonic - PITT
NORMAL VALUE: 25-40 SECS
• THROMBIN TIME: Time for thrombin to
convert fibrinogen to fibrin
A measure of fibrinolytic pathway
• Normal value : 9-13 secs
DISORDERS OF HAEMOSTASIS
• Disorders of Blood vessels
Scurvy, Henoch-Schonlein syndrome.
• Disorders of Coagulation
Extrinsic, intrinsic, combined.
• Disorders of Platelets
Thrombocytopenia ITP, TTP, HUS, DIC.
Aspirin therapy, Thrombasthenia,
• Other disorders
DIC.
DISORDERS OF COAGULATION
Haemophilia A
SYMPTOMS:
• Bruising
• Spontaneous bleeding
• Bleeding into joints and associated
• pain and swelling
• Gastrointestinal tract and urinary tract hemorrhage
• Prolonged bleeding from cuts, tooth extraction, and
surgery
• People whose clotting activity is 5percent of normal
may have only mild hemophilia.
TREATMENT:
• Infusion of cryoprecipitate or desmopressin
Acetate (ddavp)
• Desmopressin injection or stimate nasal Spray.
• Cryoprecipitate
• Avoid certain drugs that can aggravate bleeding
problems:
• Aspirin, Heparin, Warfarin, Certain analgesics
such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
HAEMOPHILIA B
• Christmas disease- deficiency in clotting factor IX.
• Symptoms include:
• Nose bleeds , Bruising
• Spontaneous bleeding
• Bleeding into joints and associated pain and swelling
• Gastrointestinal tract and Urinary tract hemorrhage
• Prolonged bleeding from cuts, tooth extraction,
surgery,
• following circumcision
• People whose clotting activity is 5% of normal may
have only mild hemophilia.
COMPLICATIONS
• Chronic joint deformities,
• Intracerebral hemorrhage may also occur.
Von Willebrand Disease:
• hereditary deficiency or abnormality of the
von Willebrand factor in the blood, a protein
that affects platelet function
• .
Von Willebrand Disease
Classifications:
• Type I:
Most common and mildest form of von Willebrand
disease.
Levels of von Willebrand factor are lower than
normal, reduced levels of factor VIII.
• Type II:
• Von Willebrand factor itself has an abnormality.
V
• Type III:
• Severe von Willebrand disease. Total absence of
von Willebrand factor, and factor VIII levels are
often less than 10%.
• Inheritance Pattern
• occurs in men and women equally.
• Types I and II are usually inherited in what is
known as a "dominant“ pattern.
• Type III von Willebrand disease, however, is
usually inherited in a "recessive" pattern.
VITAMIN K DEFICIENCY
• Source of vitamin K:
Green vegetables
Synthesized by intestinal flora
• Required for synthesis Factors II, VII, IX ,X Protein C and S
• Causes of deficiency:
Malnutrition
Biliary obstruction
Malabsorption
Antibiotic therapy
• Treatment Vitamin K
Fresh frozen plasma
CLASSIFICATION OF PLATELET
DISORDERS
• Quantitative disorders
Decreased production
Increased destruction.
• Qualitative disorders
• ◦ Inherited disorders (rare)
• ◦ Acquired disorders
Medications
Chronic renal failure
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
• Definition:
• Thrombocytopenia is any disorder in which the platelet count is below
1OO,000/CC OF BLOOD.
• THROMBOCYTOPENIA
• Immune-mediated
a. Idioapthic
b. Drug-induced
c. Collagen vascular disease
d. Lympho proliferative disease
e. Sarcoidosis
• Non-immune mediated
a) DIC
b) Microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
• Thrombocytopenia is often divided into three major causes of low
platelets:
• 1) Low production of platelets in the bone marrow
• 2) Increased breakdown of platelets in the bloodstream (called
• intravascular)
• 3) Increased breakdown of platelets in the spleen or liver (called
• extravascular
• 1)Disorders that involve low production in the bone marrow include:
• -Aplastic anemia
• -Cancer in the bone marrow
• -Infections in the bone marrow (rare)
• -Drugs (very rare)
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
• 2)Disorders that involve the breakdown of
platelets include:
• Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)
• Drug-induced immune thrombocytopenia
• Drug-induced non immune thrombocytopenia
• Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
• Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
• Hypersplenism (an enlarged spleen)
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
Symptoms:
• Bruising
• -Nose bleeds or bleeding in the mouth
• ` -Rash (pinpoint red spots)
• -Other symptoms may be present as well,
depending on the
• cause of the condition.
• Mild thrombocytopenia can occur without
symptoms.
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
INVESTIGATIONS
• FBC shows low platelets
• -Bone marrow aspiration or Biopsy may be
normal or may show
• low megakaryocytes (platelet precursors) or an
infiltrating disease.
• -PTT clotting study is normal
• -PT clotting study is normal
• -Platelet associated antibodies may be present
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
• Treatment
• Depends on the cause of the condition. In
some cases, transfusion of platelets may be
required to stop or prevent bleeding.
• Complications:
• - Hemorrhage
• -Gastro intestinal bleeding
• -Intracranial haemorrhage
FRESH FROZEN PLASMA
