HEMOSTASIS

So for my next post, I would like to write about hemostasis. BE  CAREFULL!! Don't get confuse between HEMOSTASIS and HOMEOSTASIS. 

Following the free dictionary by farlex (which i found in the internet) hemostasis can be defined as the arrest of bleeding by the physiological properties of vasoconstriction and coagulation or by surgical means.(basically hemostasis is just about blood. don't need to over think about it) and homeostasis is a  tendency to equilibrium or stability in the normal physiological states of the organism ( again to make your life easier homeostasis is about body regulate)ion.) 

Ok let's begin our topic for today... 

HEMOSTASIS

Hemostasis consists of 5 components which are:
- blood vessel
-platelet
-coagulation factor
- coagulation inhibitor
- fibrinolytic system 

In my university, this topic is quit important. It's always come out in exam. So I already created a mnemonic for you and me to remember. 
BP Cik Cukup Fabulous. (sorry i couldn't think about english mnemonic) 

B- blood vessel
P- platelet
Cik- coagulation factor
Cukup- coagulation inhibitor
Fabulous- fibrinolytic system 

I won't explain any further. (sorry). but i would like to give another mnemonic regarding platelet. 
If you don't know platelet will carry on primary hemolytic plug. There are 5 components in hemolytic plug which are :
ADHESION 
SHAPE CHANGE
RELEASE REACTION 
AGGREGATION OF PLATELET
PLATELET PROCOAGULANT ACTIVITY                                               
(ASRAP)
