PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Within minutes or even seconds, blood cells start to clump together and clot, protecting the wound and preventing further blood loss. These clots, which turn into scabs as they dry, are created by a type of blood cell called a platelet.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hemostasis is the first stage in wound healing that can last for two days. As soon as there is a wound on the body, the blood vessels in the wound area constrict to reduce the blood flow. This is known as vasoconstriction.

Detailed explanation-3: -The wound-healing process consists of four highly integrated and overlapping phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling or resolution (Gosain and DiPietro, 2004).

Detailed explanation-4: -The first stage of wound healing is for the body to stop the bleeding. This is called hemostasis or clotting and it occurs within seconds to minutes after you suffer a wound. During this phase the body activates its emergency repair system to form a dam to block the drainage and prevent too much blood loss.

Detailed explanation-5: -Haemostasis occurs immediately following an injury. To prevent exsanguination, vasoconstriction occurs and platelets undergo activation, adhesion and aggregation at the site of injury.
