Anticoagulant drugs that are direct thrombin inhibitors PT, aPTT, Escarin clotting time
(ex: argatroban & bivalirudin) can prolong what clot-
based assays?
Escarin Clotting time a laboratory test that measures how long it takes for blood to clot after the
addition of a protein called ecarin. Ecarin, derived from the venom of the saw-
scaled viper, activates a protein called prothrombin to form meizothrombin, which
then leads to clotting. -used to monitor the effects of direct thrombin inhibitors
(DTIs)
In patients who developed heparin-induced Direct thrombin inhibitors
thrombocytopenia with thrombosis (HIT), what can/ be Ex: Argatroban * Bivalirudin (can be substituted for unfractionated heparin in
used to prevent ischemic stroke patients with HIT)
