Orthostatic Challenge Shifts the Hemostatic System of Patients Recovered from Stroke toward Hypercoagulability
Aims: The objective of our study was to assess the effects of orthostatic challenge on the coagulation system in patients with a history of thromboembolic events and to assess how they compared with age-matched healthy controls. Methods: Twenty-two patients with histories of ischemic stroke and 22 healthy age-matched controls performed a sit-to-stand test. Blood was collected prior to- and at t...
متن کاملOrthostatic hypercoagulability: a novel physiological mechanism to activate the coagulation system.
Orthostatic stress causes significant plasma shift and raises transmural pressure in lower extremities, resulting in an increase in endothelial activation and plasma proteins concentrations, possibly including coagulation factors. This may lead to activation of the coagulation system during standing. To test this hypothesis, we recruited 18 healthy volunteers (9 females and 9 males; mean age: 2...
متن کاملHypercoagulability syndromes.
Hypercoagulability can be defined as the tendency to have thrombosis as a result of certain inherited and/or acquired molecular defects. Clinical manifestations of hypercoagulability can be devastating and even lethal. In the past 20 years, the origin of most of these diverse hypercoagulability syndromes has been elucidated. Currently, hypercoagulability disorders can be correctly diagnosed in ...
متن کاملHypercoagulability in dogs: pathophysiology.
The risk of hypercoagulability is increased when the hemostatic balance between procoagulant and anticoagulant mechanisms is shifted in favor of coagulation. Hypercoagulability is an increasingly recognized contributor to the deleterious manifestations of veterinary disease. The basis for thrombus formation in many acquired diseases is being investigated and more clearly defined. A thorough und...
متن کاملHypercoagulability in dogs: treatment.
Hypercoagulability is a state in which the hemostatic balance shifts toward excessive platelet activation and fibrin deposition, leading to thrombosis. Although a definitive diagnosis is often difficult to make, identifying patients at risk for thromboembolism is critical. By identifying these patients and understanding mechanisms that contribute to hypercoagulability, clinicians can select pro...
