|
abnormal blood flow- atrial fib
abnormal surfaces- heart valves abnormalities of clotting factors |
|
Platelet aggregation and formation of a platelet plug
|

|
These trigger poweful vasospasms and are released by platelets
|
TXA2 and serotonin (5-HT)
|
|
Coagulation occurs due to trauma originating from the extra-vascular space
(formation of a macromolecular complex involving Thromboplastin /Tissue Factor, and Factor VII) the most important in vivo |
Extrinsic
|
|
Coagulation is triggered by trauma to the blood itself
(from large glycoprotein complexes released by platelets) |
Intrinsic
|
|
XII to XIIa, XI to XIa, IX to IXa, X to Xa
|
Intrinsic
|
|
VII to VIIa, X to Xa
|
Extrinsic

|
|
Direct acting anticoagulants
|
Calcium chelators (Sodium citrate, EDTA)
Heparins |
|
Indirect acting anticoagulants
|
Warfarin (Coumadin)
|
|
Heparin
active in vivo or in vitro? what kind of a molecule? how is it made? what does it do? |
both
mucopolysaccharide made from bovine lung and porcine intestinal mucosa Forms a complex with ATIII which binds clotting factors which causes them to be degraded |
|
Accelerates the process of ATIII binding to clotting factors
|
Heparin
|
|
Binds and irreversibly inactivates thrombin and Xa
|
Heparin/ATIII
|
|
Immediate anticoagulation after administration
Acts on preformed blood components |
Heparin
|
|
Blocks conversion of prothrombin to thrombin and thus inhibits synthesis of fibrin from fibrinogen
|
Heparin
|
|
At low doses, neutralizes Xa
At high doses, prevents thrombin induced activation of platelets, and activation of V and VIII |
Heparin
|
|
Side effect of Heparin
|
thrombocytopenia
|
|
How is heparin administered?
|
IV or subQ
|
|
Does Heparin cross the placenta?
|
No, can be used for pregnant women
|
|
Heparin overdose
|
withdrawl
Protamine sulfate- basic peptide that binds Heparin and neutralizes its effects |
|
How is Heparin monitored?
|
aPTT
|
|
What is Heparin used for?
|
DVT, PE, acute MI
|
|
Binds ATIII
Doesn't inhibit thrombin, just Xa more specific inactivator |
LMW Heparins
|
|
Advantages of LMWH over UFH?
|
Equal efficacy
More predictable outcome Half life is twice Increased bioavailability Less frequent dosing Less frequent bleeding |
|
How are LMWH monitored?
|
not by aPTT
|
|
specific thrombin inhibitors
bind to free and meshed thrombin |
Lepirudin (Refludan)
Bivalirudin (Angiomax) |
|
the most common oral anticoagulant
|
Warfarin (Coumadin)
|
|
When is Warfarin (Coumadin) active?
|
only in vivo after a latent period of 12 to 24 hours
|
|
structural analogue of vitamin K
effects are like vit K depletion interfere with normal posttranslational modification of clotting factors in the liver- a vit K dependent process |
Warfarin (Coumadin)
|
|
Down regulates protein C which causes procoagulant activity in early therapy
