extrinsic is in the tissue

*(EX made me need the tissues)

*(im IN the vase)

300

this type of drug prevents arterial thrombus, and prevents blood clots from sticking together

antiplatelets-platlet plug

300

What are the two ways to clot and explain how its caused by?

Arterial thrombus- caused by damage to the arteries which activates platlets

Venous thrombus- due to slow blood flow causing clotting factors to pool and activate coagulation cascade

300

this suggest Salicylate toxicity and GI bleeds

asprin can cause gi ulceration, bleeding and tinititus

Clopidogrel
500

a newer drug, blocks factor 10 in both pathways and is treatment for venous thromboembolism

rivaroxaban

500
