Where do anticoagulants prevent thrombi? veins and cardiac atria
What do antiplatelet agents do? interfere with platelet activation and aggregation
Where do antiplatelet agents prevent thrombi? arteries
which antiplatelet agent is for short-term Iv use? glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor
Which antiplatelet agent is for chronic use, prevention of CV events for those at high risk? ADP receptor antagonist
What do thrombolytics do? dissolve clots that already are formed
What is the benefit of thrombolytic effects? restore blood flow
What is unfractionated heparin? "Normal" heparin; molecules vary in weight, requires lab measure aPTT
Why is aPTT measured when taking unfractionated heparin? activated partial thromboplastin time measures coagulation, to make sure unfr. Heparin is working at appropriate level
Why is aPTT not required when taking LMW heparin? low molecular weight heparin is at predictable levels in blood; do require CBC and fecal occult blood tests
How is heparin use different in those with severe liver disease? They synthesize less antithrombin so response to heparin is altered
