18 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
  • 3rd side (hint)
UFH
MOA
Forms/monitor(why?)
Metab/clearance
size(why?)
increased binding of antithrombin III to heparin like receptors (leads to inactivation of what?)

IV/SC only, and monitor using aPTT. -- no GI absorption

Mainly renal first order kinetics

3,000-30,000 daltons (prevents absorption in preggers.. so safe)
Increased Antithrombin III via Heparin like receptors inhibits clotting factors 2, 9, 10, 11, and 12. (mostly on intrinsic side)
Heparin Sulfate uses:
Class?
UFH class

Surgery
hemodialysis
DVT prophylaxis
Venous thromboembolic DX
Arterial thromboembolic DX
Acute phase unstable angina
Stroke evolution (while the clot is forming)
Post MI
arterial embolism of end organs.
UFH SE's

First choice for what condition?
Bleeding! (reversed by?)
Heparin induced thrombocytopenia (platelett count for this?)
Hypersensitivity (fever, chills, uticaria, vomiting/shock with HIT)

First choice in PREGNANCY
Protamine Sulfate

<150,000 = risk for heparin induced thrombocytopenia.
What are LMWH?
fragments of UFH and approx. 1/3 the normal size of UFH.

What size are they then?
1,000-10,000 daltons
Advantages of LMWH over UFH?
more predictable anticoag dose response.

improved SC bioavailability.

Dose INdependent clearance

Longer half life

lowered risk of thrombocytopenia

reduced need for lab testing (once level is set, it's normally stable)
LMWH Drugs

Generic and brand

MOA? (third side)

Contraindication?
Enoxaparin - lovenox
Dalteparin - fragmin
Tinzaparin - Innohep
Increased antithrombin III activity leading to inactivate II, IX, X, XI, XII.

Avoid in those allergic to pork!
LVWH pharmacokinetics

why more predictable?

Why better 1/2 life/clearance?

Monitor what? (third side)
bind less avidly than heparin = more predictable.

no endothelial cell binding (longer half life/dose independent clearance)
monitor Hb, platelets, and FOBT.
Fondaparinux
Brand/MOA/metab/form of admin

Contraindications (third side)
antidote?
arixtra

selective factor Xa inhibitor (common pathway)
Renal clearance (unchanged)
SC only (NO IM!)
X in...

renal impairment
pts <50kg (110pnds)
active major bleeds (duh)
bacterial endocarditis
thrombocytopenia

PROTAMINE is NON effective as antidote.
indications for Arixtra

generic name?
thromboprophylaxis after. .
-hip/knee fracture/replacement surgery.
-abdominal surgery

Tx of . . .
-Acute DVT
-Acute PE

fondaparinox
Danapariod

Brand - info...
Orgaran

like Avixtra but no longer avail. in the US.
Warfarin
Brand - potency of isomers - metab - absorp. 1/2 life - antidote - MOA.
Coumadin
S isomer if 5x more potent
metab by P450 - 2C9
GI absorption (oral)
36-42 hour half life
Vit k, or products that contain vit. K.
interferes with Vit. K interconversion to Vit K. Epoxide leading to dysfunctional clotting factors. (what are they? - side 3)
II, VII, IX, X

& protein C/S
Misc. that potentiate warfarin

attenuate warfarin (side 3)
acute alcohol intox.
cimetidine
chloramphenicol
contrimoxozole
disulfiram
metronidazole
phenylbutazone
attenuation

carbamazepine
chronic alochol
barb iturates
glutethimide
griseofulvin
rifamipin
cholestyramine
Normal therapeutic INR for warfarin.

exception and new target
normal is 2.0-2.5

2.5-3.0 for anterior myocardial infacrtction (prevent recurrent infarct)

2.5 - 3.0 for mechanical prosthetic valves (high risk)
Warfarin indications
prophylaxis and/or tx of...
-Venous thrombosis
-pulmonary embolism
-thromboembolic complications from AF or cardiac valve replacements
reduce risk in MI, stroke.

reduce risk of systemic embolization after MI.
Contraindications for Warfarin

part 1...
pregnancy***
hemorrhagic tendencies or blood dyscrasias(cancer of blood cells)
traumatic surgery with large open areas.

surgery of CNS or eye
warfarin contraindictaions part 2....
active ulceration/overt bleeding
senile, alcoholism, psychosis
lack of cooperative pt.
spinal pncture/procedures with severe bleeding potential.
inadequate labs
bacterial endo carditis
SE of warfarin
hemorrhage fro any tissue/organ
necrosis of skin/other tissues
systemic cholesterol microembolization
alopecia
purple toe
urticaria
gi intolerance.
Vitamin K (two types)
Form, when to use, and normal dialy intake.
