|
|
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 |
|

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 |

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

|
Alteplase
Activase |
|
gen info for t-PA activator (Alteplase, Activase)
|
