hemostatsis and thrombosis Rx Flashcards
vita k antag
warfarin (po and IV)
warfarin moa
genetics? only effective when?
Inhibits vitamin K epoxide reductase component 1
(VKORC1). Preventing the formation of vitamin K
dependent clotting factors (II, VII, IX, X, protein C, protein S).
The VKORC1 gene is polymorphic resulting in different affinities for warfarin.
Only effective in vivo
warfarin adrs
Bleeding (can be life threatening)- GI bleeding most common
Rash
Skin necrosis
Taste disturbance
“Purple toe” syndrome
warfarin dental
Bleeding- most procedures can be done without
holding medication
Antibiotic use after dental procedure may increase
risk of bleeding
unfractionated heparin
heparin (sq and IV)
heparin moa
works when?
Activation of antithrombin III, thereby inactivating Factor Xa and Thrombin (factor II).
Inhibits coagulation in vivo and in vitro
heparin adrs
Bleeding (can be life threatening)
Thrombosis- both HAT and HIT
Osteoporosis
Aldosterone inhibition-leading to hyperkalemia
Hypersensitivity reaction
heparin dental
Bleeding/bleeding gum
Although unlikely to be on heparin during dental
treatment
Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH names
forms
Enoxaparin
Dalteparin
Tinzaparin
Available: SQ
LMWH moa
in vivo/vitro?
Activation of antithrombin III, thereby inactivating Factor Xa.
Smaller portion of the heparin molecule therefore not large enough to interact with thrombin (factor II).
Inhibits coagulation in vivo and in vitro.
LMWH adrs
Same as UFH
Bleeding (can be life threatening)
Thrombosis- both HAT and HIT- HIT less common with
LMWHs
Osteoporosis
Aldosterone inhibition-leading to hyperkalemia
Hypersensitivity reaction
LMWH dental
Bleeding- most procedures can be done without
holding medication
Coagulation tests (PT/aPTT) are insensitive to anticoagulant effects of LMWHs
Direct Thrombin Inhibitors
forms
Argatroban-Available: IV
Bivalirudin- Available: IV
Dabigatran- Available: PO
direct thrombin inhibitors moa
Binds to the fibrin- binding sites of thrombin preventing the conversion of fibrinogen
direct thrombin inhibitors adrs/ names
Argatroban/Bivalirudin: bleeding (life threatening)
Dabigatran: Bleeding (can be life threatening)- new reversal agent available and Dyspepsia/gastritis with dabigatran due to formulation
direct thrombin inhibitors dental
Bleeding- Although unlikely to be on argatroban or bivalirudin during dental treatment
Bleeding- most procedures can be done without holding dabigatran
factor Xa inhibitors
forms
Apixaban-Available: PO
Edoxaban- Available: PO
Fondaparinux- Available: SQ
Rivaroxaban- Available: PO
factor Xa inhibitors moa
Binds to factor Xa and
prevent the conversion
of prothrombin to
thrombin
factor Xa inhibitors adrs
bleeding
factor Xa inhibitors dental
Bleeding- most procedures
can be done without
holding medications
cox inhibitor
aspirin (PO)
aspirin MOA
Inhibits cyclo-oxygenase 1 (COX 1). Prevents formation of prostaglandin which is subsequently converted to
thromboxane A2
aspirin adrs
Bleeding (GI most common)
Dyspepsia
Rash
Angioedema
Tinnitus
Respiratory distress
aspirin dental
Bleeding- although most procedures can be completed without holding medication
P2Y12 inhibitors and forms
Cangrelor- Available: IV
Clopidogrel- Available: PO
Prasugrel- Available: PO
Ticagrelor- Available: PO
P2Y12 inhibitor moa
Inhibition of ADP binding at the P2Y12 receptor
