Anticoagulants Flashcards
expected acid-base abnormality in salicylate poisoning
respiratory alkalosis with HAGMA
Presentation of salicylate poisoning in adults
Mixed acid-base disorder (respiratory alkalosis with High Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis)
Presentation of salicylate poisoning in children
Pure acid-base disorder (respiratory alkalosis)
Differentiate inhibitor from uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation
inhibitor- completely halts ETC
ucoupler - dissipate proton gradient without interrupting ETC
Mainly for prevention and tx of venous thrombosis (pulmonary embolism and DVT)
