Title: Antithrombotic agents and invasive procedures--hematologist point of view. Author: Lecompte TP. Journal: Thromb Res; 2012 Oct; 130 Suppl 1():S61-2. PubMed ID: 23026666. Abstract: The management of a patient treated with an antithrombotic agent who requires an invasive procedure remains challenging. There are antidotes neither for the antiplatelet agents nor the new anticoagulants. A good knowledge of basic pharmacology of these drugs and the help of a hematologist within a multidisciplinary approach are essential. The potential interest of laboratory tests and the use of reversal agents, and the transfusion of plasma and platelets will be discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
