Question
Chapter 19, Problem 28RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The factor that would be deficient in a person with prolonged prothrombin time and a normal partial thromboplastin time.
Introduction:
The clotting of the blood employs three pathways namely the intrinsic pathway, the extrinsic pathway and the common pathway. The extrinsic pathway is the first reacting pathway when a wound is created followed by the intrinsic and common pathway.

Hyperglycemia associated with diabetes promotes a prothrombotic state by affecting a number of different steps in the clotting pathway. Which of the following would result in
more rather than less clotting? Check all that apply. The correct answers reflect the effect of hyperglycemia on the clotting pathway!
less conversion of plasminogen to plasmin
7
000000000
abnormally low number of platelets
platelets more sensitive to thromboxane A2
elevated conversion of plasminogen to plasmin
platelets less sensitive to thromboxane A2
low sensitivity to NO and PGI2
increased prothrombin in the blood
increased amount of fibrinogen in the blood
less prothrombin in the blood
abnormally high number of platelets
less fibrinogen in the blood
high sensitivity to NO and PGI2
It is known that heparin acts by increasing the activity of antithrombin, causing a conformational change. LMWHs inhibit mainly factor Xa. Although low doses of heparin act primarily by neutralizing factor Xa, at high doses it prevents thrombin-induced platelet activation and prolongs bleeding time. What are major clinical benefits using heparin or LMWHs?
In erythroblastosis fetalis, what combination of blood types between the mother and child would require RhoGam administration?
