Answer 1

Answer:

Aspirin is administered in patients who produce blood hypercoagulation, that is why it is prescribed in order to antiaggregate platelets or platelet thrombi, this is how the platelets do not add or encompass each other and do not generate obstructions in the blood vessels to trigger an AMI (acute myocardial infarction) or CVA (cerebrovascular accident.)

Explanation:

Aspirin is an anticoagulant that is made up of N acetylsalicylic acid, that is, by an acid that inhibits the union of platelets with each other, that is why these in systemic situations where there is a tendency to hypercoagulation of the blood is a benefit for the patient .

Amit's infarction is caused by a platelet thrombus that obstructs the arterioles that supply the cardiac muscle tissue, that is, the coronary arteries. When these arteries are blocked by a platelet engulfment, the irrigation does not oxygenate the tissue and it suffers a transient hypoxia or anoxia that leads to partial necrosis and even in some cases of more serious situation it could be total where the person loses his life.
