Abstract

An essential aspect of the treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease is the use of anticoagulant and antiplatelet agents for the prevention of further ischaemic events and vascular death resulting from thrombosis. Aspirin and heparin have been the standard therapy for the management of such conditions to date. Recently, numerous more potent platelet inhibitors together with anticoagulant agents have been developed and tested in randomized clinical trials. This article reviews the current state of the art of antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy in light of its potential clinical efficacy. It then focuses on the usages of these agents in order to improve the performance of clinical devices such as balloon catheters, coronary stents, and femoropopliteal bypass grafting and extra corporeal circuits for cardiopulmonary bypass. The article then goes on to look at the usage of these agents more specifically heparin, heparan, hirudin, and coumarin in the development of more biocompatible scaffolds for tissue engineering.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
