  • The Management of Anticoagulants Using the Chart: – Low Molecular Weight Heparins (I.E
    WA Adult Anticoagulation Medication Chart Overview This presentation will provide an overview of: • The layout of the WA Anticoagulation Medication Chart (WA AMC) • The management of anticoagulants using the chart: – Low Molecular Weight Heparins (i.e. enoxaparin) – Unfractionated heparin (UFH) – Warfarin – Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) Anticoagulants – High Risk Medications • Anticoagulants are consistently identified as causing preventable harm to patients. • Top 20 medications involved in medication errors (July 2016 - June 2017) 1. Paracetamol 11. Buprenorphine 2. Enoxaparin 12. Targin (Oxycodone / naloxone) 3. Novorapid Insulin 13. Warfarin 4. Tramadol 14. Diazepam 5. Heparin 15. Tapentadol 6. Fentanyl 16. Metformin 7. Piperacillin & Tazobactam 17. Clonazepam 8. Oxycodone 18. Frusemide 9. Lantus Insulin 19. Hydromorphone 10. Vancomycin 20. Quetiapine • When used in error or omitted, they can cause life-threatening or fatal bleeding or thrombosis. Those most commonly prescribed anticoagulants are: –unfractionated heparin –low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) • enoxaparin sodium (Clexane®) • dalteparin sodium (Fragmin®) and – warfarin. Direct oral anticoagulants are also available and are being prescribed more frequently: –dabigatran (Pradaxa®) –rivaroxaban (Xarelto®) –apixaban (Eliquis®). Factors that increase the potential for error and harm include: • Low margin for error – over-dose → bleeding – under-dose or omission → thrombosis • Wide variation in individual patient response – multiple indications – wide range and complexity of dosage – frequent dose adjustment/monitoring – interaction with other medicines, herbals, over-the-counter products, food and alcohol. Benefits of the WA Anticoagulant Medication Chart • Provides one chart for all anticoagulant prescriptions to reduce the risk of duplicate prescribing. • Point of care guidelines for initiation, monitoring and reversal of anticoagulants. • Enables the effective achievement of therapeutic levels.

The objectives of anticoagulant therapy in the initial treatment are to prevent thrombus extension and early and late recurrences of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The main objective of our study is to analyze the usage of low molecular weight heparins in women, during the period of pregnancy. Our study, represents a retrospective study, which was undertaken during 01 July – 31 December 2013, in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, at Clinical Hospital in Tetova. Among of 817 pregnant women, 277 of them received anticoagulant therapy, respectively Low Molecular Weight Heparins. 119 of them were patients with risky pregnancy and 68 were with the diagnosis Hypercoagulable State. Keywords: Antithrombotics, Deep Vein Thrombosis, Pregnancy, Low Molecular Weight Heparins. Abrevations LMWH Low molecular weight heparins VT venous thromboembolism 1. INTRODUCTION There are two main adverse expriences that are associated with thrombophilia and pregnancy. These are VT and pregnancy complications associated with placental infarction, including miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, preeclampsia, abruption, and intrauterine death [1].

  • Low-Molecular-Weight Heparins in the Treatment of Acute Coronary Syndromes
    REVIEW ARTICLE Low-Molecular-Weight Heparins in the Treatment of Acute Coronary Syndromes Alexander G. G. Turpie, MD; Elliott M. Antman, MD latelet aggregation and activation of coagulation are key events in the development of acute coronary syndromes. Patients with an acute coronary syndrome are at high risk of death or myocardial infarction, and hence there is a strong rationale for the use of antithrombotic agents. Heparin has been shown to reduce the risk of death or myocar- Pdial infarction in aspirin-treated patients with acute coronary syndromes, but it has a number of limitations, including the need for regular monitoring and the risk of hemorrhage and thrombo- cytopenia. Low-molecular-weight heparins offer a number of practical and clinical advantages over unfractionated heparin, such as higher bioavailability and administration by subcutaneous injec- tion. Several low-molecular-weight heparins are available that differ in their biochemical and phar- macologic properties, and it is not possible to predict their clinical efficacy from their pharmaco- logic profile. The decision regarding the use of a specific low-molecular-weight heparin should be based on the efficacy and safety data available for each product. In clinical trials comparing low- molecular-weight heparin with heparin, only enoxaparin sodium has been shown to reduce the risk of coronary events in patients with non–ST segment elevation acute coronary ischemia.

  • Review of Medical Therapies for the Management of Pulmonary Embolism
    medicina Review Review of Medical Therapies for the Management of Pulmonary Embolism Ladan Panahi *, George Udeani * , Michael Horseman, Jaye Weston, Nephy Samuel, Merlyn Joseph , Andrea Mora and Daniela Bazan Department of Pharmacy Practice, Texas A&M Rangel College of Pharmacy, 1010 W Ave B, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA; [email protected] (M.H.); [email protected] (J.W.); [email protected] (N.S.); [email protected] (M.J.); [email protected] (A.M.); [email protected] (D.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] (L.P.); [email protected] (G.U.) Abstract: Traditionally, the management of patients with pulmonary embolism has been accom- plished with anticoagulant treatment with parenteral heparins and oral vitamin K antagonists. Although the administration of heparins and oral vitamin K antagonists still plays a role in pul- monary embolism management, the use of these therapies are limited due to other options now available. This is due to their toxicity profile, clearance limitations, and many interactions with other medications and nutrients. The emergence of direct oral anticoagulation therapies has led to more options now being available to manage pulmonary embolism in inpatient and outpatient settings conveniently. These oral therapeutic options have opened up opportunities for safe and effective pulmonary embolism management, as more evidence and research is now available about reversal agents and monitoring parameters. The evolution of the pharmacological management of pulmonary embolism has provided us with better understanding regarding the selection of anticoagulants. There is also a better understanding and employment of anticoagulants in pulmonary embolism in special Citation: Panahi, L.; Udeani, G.; populations, such as patients with liver failure, renal failure, malignancy, and COVID-19.
