whichever one believes that education is more important than money, if you find that one, please let me know where it is.....wdc

i meant pre versus post mortem ::doh::

[WashingtonDeceit]

lotsa different clues, none seem to be absolute

pre-mortem hemorrhage (hematoma) has some degree of consistency

and remember, a "hematoma" has a pushing "mass effect" otherwise it would not be called a hematoma, right?

a post-mortem hemorrahe cannot "expand" to puss adjacent tissues

I'm a 4th year veterinary student, and this was an excellent review for the national boards, sir :D thanks!

And finally: "Thrombosis is indeed a pathologic extension of the normal hemostatic mechanism."

[AfricaDreamProject]

MORE: "Complex, yet interrelated systems exist to maintain the fluidity of the blood in the vascular system while allowing for the rapid formation of a solid blood clot .... These interrelated systems are referred to as hemostasis when they are invoked as part of the body's normal defense mechanisms to prevent blood loss. Alternatively, these same interrelated systems are invoked during thrombosis which refers to unwanted, pathological, and in some instances life-threatening clot formation."

[AfricaDreamProject]

To say that hemostasis and thrombosis are "opposite" can be confusing. Here's some further explanation on the relationship between the two processes:

"Hemostasis is the cessation of bleeding from a cut or severed vessel, whereas thrombosis occurs when the endothelium lining blood vessels is damaged or removed (eg, upon rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque). These processes encompass blood clotting (coagulation)...."
