Hem-Onc - Anti-Platelet Flashcards

1
Q

Aspirin (ASA): Mech

A

Irreversibly inhibits COX (Cox-1 and COX-2) enzyme by covalent acetylation.
Platelets cannot synthesize new enzyme, so effect lasts until new platelets are produced
Increases Bleeding Time, Decreases TXA2 and prostaglandins.
No effect on PT or PTT

Q

Aspirin: tox

A

Gastric ulceration, tinnitus (CN VIII).
Chronic use can lead to acute renal failure, interstitial nephritis, and upper GI bleeding. Reye syndrome in children with viral infection. Overdose causes respiratory alkalosis initially, which is then superimposed by metabolic acidosis.
Fevers often occur after ASA overdose (because uncoupling agent - increased perm of mitochondrial membrane, decreased proton gradient, increased O2 consumption –> produces heat
