50 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
what is the role of prostacyclin PGI2 in the endothelium
prevent platelet aggragation
what platelet molecule binds to collagen
GP1a
what platelet molecule binds to vWF
GP1b
what do platelets release to recruit more platelets
ADP
5-HT
TXA2
what platelet freceptor binds to fibrinogen
GP IIb/IIIa
what is the process of coagulation from start to finish
TF- VIIa activates IX, which activates X, which joins with V and activates II (thrombin)
thrombin turns fibrinogen into fibrin
what is the function of AT III
inactivates cloting factors
what is the function of plasmin
clot buster of the body
what activates plasmin
t-PA
which pathway does aPTT test
intrinsic
which pathway does PT test
extrinsic pathway
what is heparin made of
a heterogenous mix of mucopolysacharides
what is the mech of action for heparin
accelerates the action of AT III by 1000 fold
this degrades factors IX, X, II
what does heparin do to aPTT time
increases it
what is the time for onset of action with heparin and what prolongs its half life
immediate
renal or hepatic dysfunction will prolong its effects
what are the benifits and features of LMW heparin like enoxaparin
only effects X, but is still as effective
can be injected SubQ
used to prevent DVT
what is the function of thrombin (IIa)
turns soluable fibrin into insoluable fibrin
what are the common names for
heparin
LMW heparin
Warfarin
heparin = Liquaemin
LMW heparin = Lovenox
warfarin = Coumadin
what are the side effects of heparins
hemorrhage
osteoperosis
allergic rxns
decreased platelets
heparin-induced thromobocytopenia (HIT)
what do you use to reverse a hemorrhage caused by heparin
protamine sulfate
what are the contraindications for heparin
hemophilia, thrombocytopenia, severe HTN
endocarditis, TB, ulcers, abortion, visceral carcinoma
hepatic or renal disease
brain, spinal chord, eye surgery
what are the uses of heparin treatment
operations
prophylaxis against thrombosis
during pregnancy to replace warfarin
use of LMW heparins
AMI
what is lepirudin (refludan) and what is it used for
an anticoagulant from leeches

used IV as an anti-coag alternative in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
what is the mech of action for warfarin
inhibits vit K epoxide reductase

(req for carbox of clotting factors)
what clotting factors does warfarin have an effect on
VII, IX, X, II
how should warfarin be administered
slowly over a week

monitor the INR- should be 2 to 3
what are the drug interactions for warfarin
aspirin- inc bleeding
cimetadine (tagamet)- inhibition of liver enzymes increases effect
alcoholics
birth control and preg
barbituates- increases liver enzumes and dec effect
antibiotics
warfarin toxicity
hemorrhage
teratogenic
hyperthyroid and hepatic disease
what reverses the action of warferin
Vit K
what is the mech of action for thrombolytic agents
convert plasminogen to plasmin and lyse clots
what are thrombolytic agents used for
PE
DVT
arterial thrombosis
stroke
what are the thrombolytic agents
t-PA activatior
streptokinase
urokinase
anistreplase
what is the common name for t-PA activatior
Alteplase
Activase
gen info for t-PA activator (Alteplase, Activase)
recombinant
selective for fibrin bound plasminogen- clot selective
better at coronary reprofusion, but higher risk of stroke
expensive
gen infor for streptokinase
allergic responses
not fibrin specific- systemic fibrinolysis
might only be good fo one treatment due to Ab formation
gen info for Anistreplase (eminase)
mix of plasminogen and streptokinase
hydrolysed in the blood to become fibrinolytic
long duration of action
rapid action and clot specific
what drug is used to inhibit thronbolytic activity by completely inhibiting plasminogen formation
Aminocaproic acid (Amicar)
what is aminocaproic acid (amicar) used for
bleeding disorders
hemophilia
reversal of fibrinolytic therapy
phrophylaxis agains rebleeding in aneurysms
gen info about tranexamic acid
inhibits plasminogen activation
useful in upper GI hemorrhage
what are the toxicities of aminocaporic acid and tranexamic acid
can cause thrombosis

hypotension, myopathy, GI discomfort, nasal stuffiness
drugs that inhibit thrombogenisis
aspirin
clopidogrel (plavix)
abciximab (reoPro)
what is the mech of action fo aspirin
inhibit the synthesis of TXA2

effects are irreversable and can prolong bleeding time for days
what is the mech of action for Clopidogrel (plavix)
irreversibly blocks the ADP receptor, inhibiting platelet aggrigation

great for pts allergic to aspirin
mech of action for abciximab (reopro)
inhibits GP IIb/IIIa receptors (platelet aggrigation)
what are the uses for abciximab (reopro)
angioplasty, stint replacement
unstable angina
AMI

very expensive
gen info for cilostazol (pletal)
phosphodiesterase III inhibitor
used for intermittent claudication

not for CHF
gen info for Bivalirudin
