protamine sulfate
Term
aPTT stands for
Definition
activated partial thromboplastin time
Term
enoxaparin (Lovenox)

U: prevention of DVT b4 abd surgery, hip/knee replacement, ischemic complications from unstable angina and MI
AE: sever neurological injuries including permanent paralysis, during LP or spinal/epidural anesthesia, thrombocytopenia
*less likelihood of thrombocytopenia
Term
warfarin
Definition
[oral coagulant]
A: coagulation suppression by antagonist of vit K

mayonase, canola oil, soy bean oil, green leafy veggies
Term
range for PT
Definition
1.5 - 2 times normal levels
(18-24)
Term
fondaparinux (Arixtra)

*NO HIT
*NO PARADOXAL CLOTTING
Term
