retains the blood within the vascular system during periods ofinjury.Thecoagubility mechanism may be thought of as acomplex series of reactions involving development of enzymes from their precursors .most of the substances which are nessasary for coagulation are present in an inert form and must be converted to an activated state.as one enzyme is formed it then becomes a vailable to convert the next zymogen to its activated enzyme .this process continues until a fibrin mesh work clot has formed.in

Heat coagulation is chiefly caused by de-stabilization of the milk proteins. Sommer and Hart’s Salt Balance Theory (1919) conceives that optimum heat stability is dependent on a certain ratio/balance of calcium plus magnesium-ions to phosphate plus citrate-ions. Any disturbance in the salt balance‚ due to excess or deficiency of either group‚ accelerates heat coagulation. (Calcium + Magnesium) / (Citrate + Phosphate) Acidity combined with heat is mainly responsible for coagulation of milk

Can a slow continuous intravenous therapy prolong the life of peripheral intravenous cannulae in the clinical setting? Introduction Background There is lack of current research evidence to suggest that continuous infusion also known as to ‘keep vein open’ to a peripheral intravenous cannula will prolong the life expectancy of a cannula. There is much discussion and debate among health care staff over the ability of a continuous infusion to prolong the life of a cannula. Many patients are often

Coagulation Disorders: Coagulation disorders occur when the blood does not form clots properly. Blood clots are clumps of different types of blood cells and clotting factors that stop bleeding after an injury. Patients with coagulation disorders may develop too many blood clots that eventually block blood vessels‚ while others may not clot enough and have excessive bleeding in the body. Both of these conditions range from mild to severe and life threatening. The process of blood clotting is
