Pharmacology in the Management of Coagulation and ThrombosisCornell Course
Course Overview
In this course, you will examine thrombosis and explore the pharmacologic management of associated high-risk conditions. You'll discover how to leverage the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties of anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents, thrombolytics and antifibrinolytics to make informed, evidence-based recommendations tailored to diverse patient needs. These recommendations will be based on the latest research and society-published guidelines, promoting treatment strategies that are both current and effective.
As part of developing treatment recommendations, you will balance comorbid conditions, contraindications and possible drug interactions to guide patients to optimal outcomes, allowing you to understand the use of these critical medications in your own patient population.
Key Course Takeaways
- Describe the physiologic goals of therapy in the treatment of thrombosis and associated conditions
- Thoughtfully select agents for the treatment of pathologic thrombosis
- Counsel patients on, monitor appropriately for, and effectively treat side effects of agents commonly used in treating thrombosis
- Apply data-driven treatment guidelines in the management of pathologic thrombosis
- Recognize and correctly classify common agents used in the management of thrombosis and related conditions
