Reaction Sequence of Blood Coagulation

Reaction-diffusion waves of blood coagulation.

One of the main characteristics of blood coagulation is the speed of clot growth. In the current work we consider a mathematical model of the coagulation cascade and study existence, stability and speed of propagation of the reaction-diffusion waves of blood coagulation. We also develop a simplified one-equation model that reflects the main features of the thrombin wave propagation. For this eq...

Blood Coagulation

INTRODUCTION This section covers the means, as far as we now know them, by which components of the blood plasma produce an insoluble protein meshwork, or gel, at a site of blood-vessel damage. The plasma is normally completely fluid, containing all its proteins in soluble form. When the clotting system is activated at a site of blood-vessel damage, a series of proteolytic reactions is set going...

Stroke and blood coagulation.

Stroke and Blood Coagulation • A study of the coagulation parameters of 87 normal controls (ages 50 to 80) were compared with those of 33 patients with thrombotic stroke and 55 patients with diabetes mellitus of the same age distribution. There were no significant differences when tested for the influence of sex or age. Twenty-seven tests of clotting were done on each specimen, a total of 4,725...
