Introduction
Primary hemostasis
Platelets interact with damaged endothelium
Primary hemostatic plug to arrest bleeding
Primary platelet plug: fragile and easily
dislodges
Secundary hemostasis
Formation of insoluble fibrin strands
Secundary hemostatic plug: a stable plug
Involves the coagulation cascade proteins
that interact with each other and the platelet
plug
Fibrinolysis
Once healing occured, the clot has to be lysed
to prevent occlusion of vessel 4
