  • Front

intrinsic pathway
– contact of platelets with negatively charged surface eg. collagen.
Slower
Factor XII is activated from exposure to collagen
Measured by partial thromboplastin time
extrinsic pathway
tissue factor (phospholipid) released from cells of endothelium. (Activates Factor VII)

Measured by prothrombin time
INR
diff btw serum and plasma
-plasma has clotting factors
NSAIDs inhibit
Cox-1 – elevates speed of coagulation of the blood. NSAIDs Inhibit formation of thromboxine A1

prevent, during, or after ______
during _____ surgeries
prevention of _____ or _____
also (2)
-MI
-angioplasty, stenting
-stroke, TI
-unstable angina, atrial fibrillation
Laboratory Tests to Monitor the Effects of Antiplatelet Drugs (2)
1) Ivy Bleeding time: small injury, measure time bleeding continues (normally 1-6, 7 minutes)
2) Platelet function analyzer: measures time of platelet clot w/I a capillary tube. (normally 60-120 seconds)
Local Measures to Control Post-op bleeding (5)
- Careful, atraumatic surgical technique
- Hemostatic agent in the socket (Gelfoam, Avitine, Surgicel)
- Careful suturing
- Post op pressure packs (damp gauze for 30-60 minutes); esp impt for flap compression
- Antifibrinolytic agents. (tranexamic acid [Cyclokapron Oral] or epsilon amino caproic acid [Amicar] as a mouthwash or to soak pressure gauzes.
Use of anticoagulants:
presence of ______
history of ______
reduce risk of ________
maintain patency of _______
prophylaxis to prevent post-operative _______
also (3)
-mechanical prosthetic heart valves
-deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
-recurrent MI
-arterial lines (heparin)
-DVT (heparin and derivatives)
-pulmonary embolism, ischemic stroke, atrial fibrillation
2 grps of anticoagulants
-heparin/heparin based
-warfarin (coumadin): vita K antagonist
bivalirudin (3)
-direct thrombin inhibiting anticoagulant
-related to "hirudin," a natural component of leech saliva
-reversible inhibitor
Fondaparinux (2)
-anticoagulant
-specific factor XA inhibitor
_____ acts rapidly and is used in acute situations
______ is used in chronic situations, for prevention and prophylaxis
(anticoagulants)
-Heparin

-Warfarin
Warfarin:
structure
metabolized
action
1/2 life
delay of onset
antidote
increased effect when mixed w/ (7)
-vita K analogue
-liver
-interferes w/ synth of VII, IX, X, prothrombin
-36hrs
-8-12hrs
-Vita K
-antibiotics, aspirin, NSAIDs, antifungals, tramadol, tricyclics, certain herbs
what enzyme is sensitive to warfarin

function?
-epoxide reductase
-When K is oxidized, decarboxylated prothrombin becomes prothrombin. ER enzyme takes the oxidized vit K to the reduced, to restart the cycle
Warfarin is also inactivated in liver by
-cytochrome P450
Warfarin pharmacokinetics:
rapidle absorbed when _______
highly ______
crosses/does not cross placenta?
breast feeding?
1/2 life
clearance
clearance dependent on
effectivity ranges due to
-orally admin
-protein bound in plasma
-yes, crosses. Teratogenic
-breast feeding OK
-24-60hrs
-variable but usually slow
-hepatic P450s (esp 2C9)
-genetics. VKORC1 haplotypes.
Warfarin dosage:
european
african american
asian
-5mg/d

-6-7mg/d

-3-3.5mg/d
lab tests to monitor warfarin/coumadin activity (2)
1) Prothrombin time:
– measures rapid phase, root of coagulation
-Take a sample of pt’s blood, add the Thromboplastin reagent, calculate time required to form a clot (seconds).
2) INR:
- INR= (PT obs/PT control)^ISI
-normal = 1
-Normal PT ratio is 1.
INR:
theraputic target
target for prosthetic heart valves
-2.5 (2-3)
-2.5-3.5
Factors that can influence INR (9)
-Drug Interactions
Diet
Body gets Vitamin K from the intestinal flora (alteration may Increase INR)
Fever (Increase INR)
Hepatic failure (increase INR)
Thyroid Function (hypo decrease INR, hyper increase INR)
Stress (increase INR)
Smoking (may decrease INR)
Noncompliance (increase or decrease of INR)
Risk:
low INR
high INR
-ischemic stroke
-intracranial bleeding
why does warfarin interact w/ some foods
-foods w/ lots of vita k can interfere w/ drug action
effect of antibiotics and antifungals on warfarin (2)
-inhibit metabolism by P450 cytocrome CYP2C9
-can decrease drug's metabolism, thereby increasing its effect.
comorbid conditions that increase bleeding w/ warfarin (6)
-Liver
-Kidney
-Tumor
-Bone marrow failure
-Chemotherapy
-Autoimmune diseases
sign of warfarin overdose

reversal of anticoagulants:
INR<5, no bleeding:
INR>5, no bleeding:
INR>9:
serious bleeding:
-unusual bleeding

-lower, omit dose
-omit 1-2 doses, +/- 2.4mg of oral vita K
-3-5mg of vita K
-FFP, slow IV admin of 10mg vita K
warfarin bleeding risk:
