Which drug promotes hemostasis by inhibition of fibrinolysis?
a) Celecoxib
b) Desmopressin
c) Diphenhydramine
d) Aminocaproic acid - answer d) Aminocaproic acid
Rationale: Aminocaproic acid inhibits fibrinolysis by blocking the
production of plasmin. Consequently, it promotes hemostasis in
patients with hemophilia A. Celecoxib is a cyclooxygenase-2
inhibitor that does not suppress platelet aggregation; however, its
safety for pain management in hemophilia has not been proven.
Desmopressin may be useful to stop bleeding by promoting the
release of stored factor VIII. Diphenhydramine is an
antihistamine that may be administered to treat symptoms of
mild reaction to administration of factor VIII. pg 632
, In which patients is hemophilia almost exclusively seen?
a) Males
b) Females
c) Hispanics
d) Caucasians - answer a) Males
Rationale: Hemophilia is a genetically based bleeding disorder
seen almost exclusively in males. Because males have only one X
chromosome, a male with a defective gene has hemophilia. In
contrast, a female with a defective gene on just one X
chromosome is an asymptomatic carrier. It is not more
predominant in any one race. pg 627
Which route of administration is appropriate to administer
argatroban?
a) Intradermal
b) Intravenous
c) Intramuscular
d) Subcutaneous - answer b) Intravenous
