  • Blood coagulation is a process that changes circulating substances within the blood into an insoluble gel. The gel plugs leaks in blood vessels and stops the loss of blood. The process requires coagulation factors, calcium and phospholipids.
    The coagulation factors (proteins) are manufactured by the liver.
    Ionized calcium ( Ca++ ) is available in the blood and from intracellular sources.
    Phospholipids are prominent components of cellular and platelet membranes. They provide a surface upon which the chemical reactions of coagulation can take place.
    Coagulation can be initiated by either of two distinct pathways.
    The Intrinsic pathway can be initiated by events that take place within the lumen of blood vessels. The Intrinsic pathway requires only elements (clotting factors, Ca++, platelet surface etc.) found within, or intrinsic to the vascular system.
    The Extrinsic pathway is the other route to coagulation. It requires Tissue Factor (tissue thromboplastin), a substance which is "extrinsic to", or not normally circulating in the vessel. Tissue Factor is released when the vessel wall is ruptured.
    Regardless of whether the Extrinsic or Intrinsic pathway starts coagulation, completion of the process follows a common pathway. The common pathway involves the activation of factors: X, V, II, XIII and I. Both pathways are required for normal hemostasis and there are positive feedback loops between the two pathways that amplify reactions to produce enough fibrin to form a lifesaving plug. Deficiencies or abnormalities in any one factor can slow the overall process, increasing the risk of hemorrhage.
    The coagulation factors are numbered in the order of their discovery. There are 13 numerals but only 12 factors. Factor VI was subsequently found to be part of another factor. The following are coagulation factors and their common names:
    Factor I - fibrinogen
    Factor II - prothrombin
    Factor III - tissue thromboplastin (tissue factor)
    Factor IV - ionized calcium ( Ca++ )
    Factor V - labile factor or proaccelerin
    Factor VI - unassigned
    Factor VII - stable factor or proconvertin
    Factor VIII - antihemophilic factor
    Factor IX - plasma thromboplastin component, Christmas factor
    Factor X - Stuart-Prower factor
    Factor XI - plasma thromboplastin antecedent
    Factor XII - Hageman factor
    Factor XIII - fibrin-stabilizing factor
