Push Dose Pearls: Reversing Anticoagulants

This is the next episode of our Push Dose Pearls miniseries with ED Clinical Pharmacist, Chris Adams. In this ongoing series we’ll dig into some of the questions we all have about medications we commonly see and use in the ED. In this epsidoe, we unpack the complexities of anticoagulation reversal in the emergency department - It’s not just about vitamin K anymore! Tune in as we explore the key reversal agents, when and why to use them, how fast they work, and the risks that come with turning off anticoagulation. From bleeding emergencies to stroke prevention, this quick dive offers practical pearls for navigating the coagulation cascade in real time.
