Hematology Pharmacodynamic Flashcards
Direct Thrombin (2a) inhibitors Effect on Pt/PTT and Names
Rudins and Argatroban/Gatran Hirudin, Bivalurdin, Lepirudin, Desirudin Argatroban, inogatran, melagatran, dabigatran. PT+PTT cannot be restored with FFP
Warfarin MOA
Vit K sythesis antagonism; affects; 10, 9, 7, 2
Garlic Effect on Blood Coag
Inhbiit plt aggregation and inc fibrinolysis
Ginseng effect on Coag
Prolong Pt; PTT
Gingko effect on Coag
Inhibit platlet activating factor
Parental Iron Dangerous AE/Benefit
Anaphylaxsis/safer than blood transfusion.
EPO AE
Thrombosis.
Platelet Infusion Compositions; storage and transfusion note
Plasma 200 ml with minimal rbc and wbc and abod, transfuse and store at room temp, to avoid lost of activity, higher due to manufactor)
PLT infusion complications
HLA, RH senstization, Hemolysis (esp in Infants), Higher Chance than rbc of Trali, Sepsis, Febrile Rxn, Allergic Rxn
Vincristine AE
Immunosupression, Peripheral Neuropathy (esp with charcot marie tooth), Urinary retention, paralytic ileus, SIADH
Cyclophosamide MOA, AE
Liver Metabolizes leading to alkylating agent prevening DNA replication; may cause hemorrhagic cystitis if not prevented with Mesna (antioxi)
Doxorubicin MOA, AE
Prevent DNA replication, Cardiotoxic -> cardiomyopathy, peak dose dependent esp with Trastuznumab (HER-2)
6MC (mercaptopurine) MOA and AE
Prevent Guanine for DNA syn, Myelosuppressive, May be affected by xanthine oxidase (affected by allopurinol)
Stored Blood Decreased in what Substance related to Oxygen
2,3 DPG to 0 within 2-3 wk. blood return back to 1/2 in 7hr and then full in 48hr
Thrombophlebitits Med offenders and tx
Etomidate due to (propylene glycol esp in high dose/slow injection); Increased in small vein, without lidocaine; Tx: NSAID + compression stockings
Dextran and hetastarch AE
Coagulopathy due to affecting PLT and F8.
reduction of graft va host
leukocyte irradiation
reducing IGA deficiency rxn
leukocyte washing
,reducing inc in potassium for hd pt
leukocyte washing
TRIM effect and how to limit it
from donor cells like nk and t cells, due to release of histamine, eosinophilic actinic protein, protein x that leads ta proinflammatory state, leukocyte reduction leading to Inc recurrence of cancer, infection and inc mortality. To reduce this. may be beneficial in survival of renal allograft (pre cyclosporine era); Con: may be responsible for early mortality after cardiac surgery (leukoreducted blood reduces this)
MOA of and compare of LMWH vs Heparin
MOA: binds to antithrombin3, increases antithrombin affinity to .Lvd selectively inhibits activated factor x but less thrombin inhibition. Less associated with HIT vs Hep
Warfarin Reversal Indication Preoperative
Urgent Surgery; INR 1.9-5 FFP/PCC + 1-3 mg of IV K; 5-9: PCC/FFP + 2-5 mg/IV Vit K

EPO Indication and Onset:
Anemia 2/2 Chemo; ESRD. 15 days (10 days before surgery; surgery day and 4 days post surgery or per week x 3 prior to surgery)
Jehovah Acceptance
Red Cells, Whites, Plasma, PLT
