Blood thinners
Antiplatelets, Anticoagulants, Thrombolytics
Blood thinners adverse fx
BLEEDING
→is pt having a surgery/procedure?
ANTIPLATELETS
ARTERIAL THROMBUS
→Ischemic stroke, MI, PAD, ACS
→ASSESS: upcoming procedures, decreased Hgb, Hct Plt, BP, bruising
Two types of ANTIPLATELETS
P2Y12 ADP receptor antagonist
Aspirin
P2Y12 ADP receptor antagonist
Clopidogrel
Prasugrel
→irreversible
Ticagrelor→reversible if stopped
maintenance of vessel graphs/stents
arterial thrombus
Aspirin baby
cardiovascular prevention
fever, pain, acute MI
ANTICOAGULANTS
VENOUS THROMBUS
DVT, Pulmonary Embolism, Stroke
Heparin, Low Molecular Weight Heparin, Warfarin, DOACs
Heparin
FAST-ACTING (wears off fast)
Hospital-use only
treatment IV, SUBQ prevention
→Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (lowers platelet)
→MONITOR ANTI Xa & PTT
Low Molecular Weight Heparin
Enoxaparin
prevention of ischemic conditions, MI, angina
pre-filled syringe (home med)
→HIT
Warfarin
(1-2) normal range INR
Mr bleed (2-3) →for patient
SLOW-ONSET
closely monitor INR
→Vitamin K as an antidote
AFIB
DOACs
Apixaban
Rivaroxaban
risk reduction for TIA & MI
→more easier to manage
AFIB
Thrombolytics = “Clot Busters”
Alteplase
Tenecteplase
for already formed clots
EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
extremely high risk requires close monitoring
