Anticoagulation & Thrombolytics: Hemostasis

Explore the world of anticoagulants and thrombolytics in this comprehensive 31-minute video lesson. Delve into the major components of hemostasis, common indications for anticoagulation, and the coagulation cascade. Gain a thorough understanding of various anticoagulants, including warfarin, heparin, and new oral anticoagulants (NOACs/DOACs), along with their mechanisms, pharmacology, and side effects. Learn about reversal agents for DOACs, the effects of anticoagulants on coagulation tests, and the concept of bridging anticoagulants. Conclude with an examination of the coagulation cascade, fibrinolysis, and thrombolytics, providing a well-rounded knowledge base for hematology and pharmacology enthusiasts.
