INTRODUCATION
THROMOS DEFINATION
Thrombosis is the making of a blood clot inside a blood vessel, stop the flow of blood through the circulatory system. When a blood vessel is injured, the body uses platelets and fibrin to form a blood clot to prevent blood loss from the body. Even when a blood vessel is not injured, blood clots may form in the body under certain conditions. A clot, or a piece of the clot, that breaks free and begins to travel around the body is known as an embolus[1]
THROMBOS COMPOSITION
Analyses were performed on 44 of the 45 thrombi collected. One thrombus was not analyzed because the SEM preparation had failed. Fibrin fibers were the major thrombus component, representing more than 60% of their composition. …show more content…

Coronarythrombosis: a resultratherthanacauseof infarction?It wasassertedthat thefrequencyofcoronary thrombosis wasgreaterin patients who died late after the onset of symptoms than in those who died early. This observation formed the basis for the view that the thrombus was aresult ratherthan acause oftheinfarction. By the 1960s. thesequestions concerning the roleof coronary thrombosis were sufficient tocloudthe issue anddampen enthusiasm for the use of fibrinolytic agents, whichby then had becomeavailable for routine use .[5] …show more content…

Deep Venous Thrombosis Prophylaxis; Lovenox vs Heparin On June 30, 2011, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) presented their final ruling on non-payment policies for provider preventable conditions (PPCs). One of the other provider preventable conditions includes the development of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis in any health care setting (Federal Register, 2011, p. 32817). Due to the significant cost of providing care for preventable conditions that are now not reimbursed through the CMS and many health insurance companies, hospitals around the country have implemented new policies to ensure patients remain free of venous blood clots during their hospital stay. The practice of injecting either Lovenox or heparin

Next, they traced the external jugular vein and its tributary veins on the surface of the right side of the neck and head. On the left side where the sternomastoid was cut, the students then located the deeper vessels running alongside the trachea, internal jugular vein, and the common carotid artery. In the abdominal cavity, the groups then exposed and studied the hepatic portal vein and its tributaries. They then identified the tributaries of the post cava, the renal, adrenolumbar, iliolumbar, iliac, and caudal vessels. The arteries of the gonads then came off the abdominal aorta cranial where the spermatic arteries were found.

Spattered blood is a random distribution of bloodstains that vary in size that may be produced by many mechanisms. The size and quantity of spatters produced by a single mechanism vary significantly. The amount of available blood and the amount of force applied to the blood affect the size range of spatters. Spatter is created when sufficient force is available to overcome the surface tension of the blood. The amount of force applied to a source of blood and the size of the resulting spatter vary considerably with gunshot, beating and stabbing events.

artery, whether the injury is covered by apparel, and the position of the victim when the injury was inflicted. Arterial blood staining is accompanied by demonstrable arterial damage. The hypothesis of a bloodstain pattern being the result of arterial spurting would be supported by identifying information within the autopsy report about a severed artery. A bloodstain analyst would require to review the bloodstain pattern by conducting an autopsy report, or verbalize directly to the forensic pathologist who conducted the autopsy report. These patterns are customarily very distinctive due to the overall quantity of bloodstains observed.

Marked alterations in cardiopulmonary function, leukocytes and thrombocytopenia lead to coagulopathies, increased vascular permeability and decreased organ blood flow and metabolism. This leads to decreased gastrointestinal motility, decreased perfusion of peripheral tissues and consequently shock (Stadler and Van,1989). Endotoxemia is one of the main causes of death in horses affected with gastrointestinal disease due to a physical obstruction causing strangulation and ischemic necrosis

Part 1: Overview current literature about Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura The first patient described with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a 16 year old girl that died within 2 weeks after disease onset. She struggled with petechial bleeding, pallor, fever, paralysis, hematuria and coma (Lämmle et al. 2005). From the autopsy in 1924 Doctor E. Moschcowitz described hyaline thrombosis of the terminal arterioles and capillaries and he suspected that a powerful agglutinative and hemolitic poison was responsible for the disease (Moschcowitz 1924; Moschcowiz 1925). Four decades after the first diagnosis, five general diagnostic criteria were established.

Myocardial Infarction which is another word for Heart-attack. When you have an heart-attack your blood is not getting to your heart's muscle. This means your arteries are clogged.

The specific skills behind controlling a hemorrhage have been largely unchanged for hundreds of years. Since the first century A.D., techniques such as compression, styptics (i.e., hemostatic agents), and torsion/tourniquets have been utilized. ( Kabaroff, 2013). Since then, medicine has strived to develop the best way to improve these methods. Even through hundreds of years of research and trials, it is often found that the simplest, earliest methods remain the standard.

If the clot is in a deep vein, which is usually a lower extremity, they are referred to as deep vein thrombi. If the clot breaks away and travels to the lung, they are referred as a pulmonary embolism. Deep vein thrombi, and pulmonary embolisms are categorized as venous thromboembolisms (International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2017). Although all hospitalized patients are at an increased risk of venous thromboembolism development, patients whom pose the highest risk include: patients who have cancer, had major surgery, experienced trauma, and/or are significantly immobile (The American Heart Association, 2017). Due to the nature of thromboembolism development, the risks of development have been present whenever an individual is injured or experienced decrease mobility.

In atherosclerosis, fatty material and cholesterol are deposited inside the lumen of medium and large sized blood vessels (arteries). These deposits forms a plague cause the inner surface of the vessels to become narrow, making it harder for blood to flow through. Eventually the plague can rapture, triggering in the formation of a blood clot, if the blood clot develops in coronary artery, it can cause a heart attack, if it develops in the brain, and it can cause a stroke. Risk factors associated with atherosclerosis’ are as follows, tobacco use ,physical inactivity ,unhealthy diet ( rich in salt, fat ,and calories)harmful use of alcohol ,and metabolic risk factors hypertension raised blood sugar (diabetes) raised blood lipids.(Global atlas on CVDs preventition and control
