The Blood Clotting Drugs Compass Cards help nursing students connect each medication with the part of the blood system it changes: platelets, clotting factors, fibrin breakdown, red blood cell production, or neutrophil production.
The 12 printable medication cards cover aspirin, clopidogrel, heparin, enoxaparin, warfarin, apixaban, dabigatran, alteplase, tranexamic acid, epoetin alfa, ferrous sulfate, and filgrastim. Each card organizes the medication’s class and prototype, purpose, mechanism, nursing checks, major risks, and patient-teaching priorities into a consistent visual format.
The included 20-minute Audio Companion turns the individual cards into a connected driving lesson. It compares antiplatelet medications, anticoagulant pathways, direct oral anticoagulants, clot breakdown and protection, anemia therapies, and neutrophil stimulation.
Use these Blood Clotting Drugs Compass Cards while preparing for class, comparing medications, commuting, walking, or reviewing before an exam. This resource is designed to supplement nursing textbooks, lectures, clinical instruction, and facility policies—not replace them.
This digital product includes one downloadable 12-page Compass Card PDF and one downloadable MP3 Audio Companion. No physical product will be shipped.
