Shownotes Transcript

Today, we're going to change gears. 

No case today and no systematic review.

Instead, I want to review anticoagulation pharmacology...any medication that inhibits one or more steps of that coagulation cascade. 

We're going to review the new and old agents, including:

  • Mechanism of action
  • Indications
  • Precautions
  • Adverse effects
  • Monitoring
  • Dosing

We'll also quickly review and simplify the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways.

Next week, we'll touch on what to do when things get ugly and need to reverse these medications.
