[Disorder of the thrombocytic-vascular component of hemostasis in thyrotoxicosis]. 1977

D P Pavlovskiĭ

Hemocoagulation and the platelet-vascular hemostasis mechanism were investigated in 79 patients suffering from thyrotoxicosis of different severity by clinical observations and laboratory studies. Along with hemocoagulation defects, there were revealed thrombocytopenia, reduction of the platelet adhesive-aggregation activity and of the vascular wall resistance. The extent of these disturbances depended on the severity of thyrotoxicosis. In the authors opinion, affection of the platelet-vascular hemostasis component, combined with hemocoagulation disturbances played an important role in the development mechanism of increased hemorrhagic tendency of the tissues and hemorrhagic diathesis in thyrotoxicosis. The necessity of complex treatment of patients with thyrotoxicosis with prescription of agents normalizing hemocoagulation and the platelet-vascular hemostasis mechanism is founded.

D006470	Hemorrhage	Bleeding or escape of blood from a vessel.	Bleeding,Hemorrhages
D006487	Hemostasis	The process which spontaneously arrests the flow of BLOOD from vessels carrying blood under pressure. It is accomplished by contraction of the vessels, adhesion and aggregation of formed blood elements (eg. ERYTHROCYTE AGGREGATION), and the process of BLOOD COAGULATION.	Hemostases
D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D014655	Vascular Resistance	The force that opposes the flow of BLOOD through a vascular bed. It is equal to the difference in BLOOD PRESSURE across the vascular bed divided by the CARDIAC OUTPUT.
