Hypercoagulability in dogs: pathophysiology.
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 understanding of the hemostatic system and knowledge of disorders that lead to hypercoagulable states are critical to a logical therapeutic approach.

Hypercoagulability 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...
متن کاملHypercoagulability in Dogs with Blastomycosis
BACKGROUND Blastomycosis is a potentially fatal fungal disease that most commonly affects humans and dogs. The organism causes systemic inflammation and has a predilection for the lungs. The inflammation might lead to a hypercoagulable state with microemboli in the pulmonary circulation which could contribute to inadequate oxygen exchange in infected dogs. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES Dogs with blas...
متن کاملNitrosative stress indices in dogs with neurological form of canine distemper
This is a prospective, controlled, randomized clinical study to evidence the role of nitrosative stress in development of overt neurological sign of canine distemper (CD). The enrollment of cases wasa made on basis of overt sign of CD (n=139) and the findings were compared with apparently healthy dogs (n=15). The CD specific immunoglobulins resulted in 94 confirmed positive cases. The nitric ox...
متن کاملHypercoagulability in sickle cell disease: new approaches to an old problem.
Patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) exhibit high plasma levels of markers of thrombin generation, depletion of natural anticoagulant proteins, abnormal activation of the fibrinolytic system, and increased tissue factor expression, even in the non-crisis steady state. In addition, platelets and other cellular elements are chronically activated in the non-crisis state. Despite an abundance of...
متن کاملA Narrative Review on Evaluation of Hypercoagulability State in Severe Covid-19 Patients with Background Risk Factors
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) can induce coagulopathy at the base of sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC), which is an important cause of death in these patients. Cytokine storm causes imbalance in coagulation and fibrinolytic system. A combination of hypercoagulability state, decrease or inhibition of fibrinolysis and endotheliopathy causes thromboembolic events. Underlying diseases such as diab...
