Term
Given the Anticoagulant Action, Name the Anticoagulant:

Interferes with production of Vitamin K factors; Takes 36-72 hours to work
Definition
Coumadin or Warfarin
Term
True or False:
Coumadin/Warfarin can NOT be used on pregnant women
Definition
True
Term
Given the Anticoagulant Action, Name the Anticoagulant:

Inhibits formation of thromboxane A2 and therefor platelet aggregation
Definition
Aspirin
Term
Given the Anticoagulant Action, Name the Anticoagulant:

Combines with AT and Rapidly Inhibits Thrombin (IIa) and Xa, XIIa, XIa, and IX a, stopping clotting.
Definition
Heparin / Standard unfractionated heparin (UFH)
Term
Given the Anticoagulant Action, Name the Anticoagulant:

Binds to AT but inhibits only Xa and NOT thrombin
Definition
Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWK)
Term
Given the Anticoagulant Action, Name the Anticoagulant:

Cause plasminogen to convert to plasmin which Breaks Down the Clot
Definition
Streptokinase or Urokinase
"Clot Busters"
Term
Given the Anticoagulant Action, Name the Anticoagulant:

Breaks up existing Clot
Works only on clotted surface so does not cause systemic bleeding
Definition
t-PA
Tissue plasminogen activator
"Clot Busters"
Term
Which "Clot Buster" causes plasminogen to convert to plasmin, thus breaking down the clot?
Definition
Streptokinase or Urokinase
Term
Which "Clot Buster" ONLY works on clotted surfaces?
Definition
t-PA
Term
Which "Clot Buster" does NOT cause systemic bleeding?
Definition
t-PA
Term
Given the anticoagulant, name the pathway with which it is involved:

Coumadin/Warfarin
Definition
Mostly EXTRINISIC, but some effect on Intrinsic and PTT because of factor IX
Term
Given the anticoagulant, name the pathway with which it is involved:

Aspirin
Definition
Platelet Aggregation
Term
Given the anticoagulant, name the pathway with which it is involved:

Heparin / Standard unfractionated heparin (UFH)
Definition
INTRINISIC & Common
Term
Given the anticoagulant, name the pathway with which it is involved:

Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH)
Definition
Common Path
Term
Given the anticoagulant, name the pathway with which it is involved:

Streptokinase or Urokinase "Clot Busters"
Definition
Enhances Fibrinolysis
Term
Given the anticoagulant, name the pathway with which it is involved:

t-PA / Tissue plasminogen activator
"Clot Buster"
Definition
Enhances fibrinolysis
Term
Though Coumadin/Warfarin is mostly involved in the EXTRINSIC pathway, what factor causes it to have some effect on INTRINSIC and PTT?
Definition
Factor IX
Term
Overdose of Heparin is treated with what and why?
Definition
Protamine Sulfate, because it inactivates heparin
Term
Which "Clot Buster" is Non-fibrin specific so there is MORE danger of bleeding (can attack fibrinogen)?
Definition
Streptokinase or Urokinase
Term
Which factors are affected by the following anticoagulant:

Coumadin/Warfarin
Definition
Vitamin K factors: II, VII, IX, X
Term
Which factors are affected by the following anticoagulant:

Aspirin
Definition
Platelets
Term
Which factors are affected by the following anticoagulant:

Heparin / Standard unfractionated heparin (UFH)
Definition
Thrombin (IIa) and Xa mostly, but also XIIa, XIa, and IXa.
Term
Which factors are affected by the following anticoagulant:

Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH)
Definition
Factor Xa
Term
Which factors are affected by the following anticoagulant:

Streptokinase or Urokinase
Definition
Fibrinolysis
Term
Which factors are affected by the following anticoagulant:

t-PA / Tissue Plasminogen Activator
Definition
Fibrinolysis
Term
With Coumadin/Warfarin, which factor is affected FIRST?
Definition
Factor VII
Term
True or False:
Many drugs and lifestyle habits interfere with Coumadin/Warfarin drug action
Definition
True
Term
True or False:
Heparin does NOT work properly if patient has AT deficiency?
Definition
True
