Blood vessel
What is local myogenic spasm?
Muscle Spasm, this would be referring to when a blood vessel is broken, the response to fix it would be vasoconstriction. A myogenic spasm would aid in the loss of blood by briefly constricting the muscle where the broken blood vessel is located.
What is the first step in hemostasis?
vascular spasm
Coagulation occurs last in hemostasis?
Coagulation is the final phase of hemostasis, which is the process that prevents and stops bleeding. It involves a complex cascade of biochemical reactions leading to the transformation of fibrinogen into fibrin, forming a stable blood clot. This clot serves to seal the injury in the blood vessel, allowing for tissue repair and restoration of normal blood flow. Hemostasis occurs in three main stages: vascular spasm, platelet plug formation, and finally coagulation.
Which chemical is released to bring about vasoconstriction during the vascular spasm of phase of hemostats?
During the vascular spasm phase of hemostasis, the release of endothelin causes vasoconstriction. Endothelin is a potent vasoconstrictor that helps narrow blood vessels to reduce blood flow at the site of injury, aiding in the initial stages of hemostasis.
What is a Vasospasm?
Vasospasm-- Narrowing of a blood vessel caused by a spasm of the smooth muscle of the vessel wall.
What is the first response in a blood vessel injury?

Can a muscle strain or spasm result in a bruise?
Yes it can if the muscle fibres are ruptured
What causes hemifacial spasm?
The cause of hemifacial spasm has been linked to overactivity of the seventh cranial nerve nucleus that signals facial muscle movement. In other instances, hemifacial spasm may be caused by compression by a mass or abnormal blood vessel.
When you get a minor cut platelets in your blood stick to the wound cause threads to form a clot?
When you get a cut, the plateletes collect at the site to form a sticky plug. They secrete a chemical, serotonin, which causes the blood vessel to spasm and narrow, decreasing the flow of blood. It is what forms a scab.
