Last week, we reviewed the different types of anticoagulation medications.
Today, I want to review what to do when things go bad aka what are the reversal agents.
There are 4 basic questions you should consider when thinking about anticoagulation reversal:
- Is the patient actively bleeding aka do I have to take action immediately?
- What anticoagulant is the patient on?
- When was their last dose?
- What doest the patient need the reversal for? i.e. life threatening bleed, emergent surgical procedure, etc.
Let's dive right in!
