Vitamin K antagonist

– The VKA act through competitive inhibition of hepatic synthesis of certain clotting factors vitamin K-dependent: prothrombin (II); proconvertin (VII); factor IX; Factor X (X).

– Protein C and Protein S (coagulation inhibitors) are also vitaminic-K-dependent.

– Two families derivatives indandione (fluindione or Previscan) and coumarin (acenocoumarol or Sintrom®; warfarin or Coumadin®).

Hemophilia– Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment and Ongoing care

Inherited bleeding disorders caused by a deficiency of coagulant factor VIII (hemophilia A) or factor IX (hemophilia B, also called Christmas Disease). They are clinically indistinguishable but can be differentiated by assays that detect levels of factors VIII and IX. Hemophilia– Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment and Ongoing care
