Answer:

Pallor

Fatigue

Easy bruising

Cyanosis

When symptoms begin, a child appears pale, fatigues easily, and has anorexia from the lowered RBC count and tissue hypoxia. Because of reduced platelet formation (thrombocytopenia), the child bruises easily or develops petechiae (pinpoint, macular, purplish-red spots caused by intradermal or submucous hemorrhage). A child may have excessive nosebleeds or gastrointestinal bleeding. As a result of a decrease in WBCs (neutropenia) a child may contract an increased number of infections and respond poorly to antibiotic therapy. Observe closely for signs of cardiac decompensation such as tachycardia (not bradycardia), tachypnea (not bradypnea), shortness of breath, or cyanosis from the long-term increased workload of all these effects on the heart.

A nurse at a long-term care facility is conducting a medication reconciliation for a man who has just moved into the facility. T
Valentin [98]

It is very reasonable for the nurse to believe that this individual taking clopidogrel, has a background of coronary artery disease.

What is the function of the clopidogrel drug?

  • It is an antiplatelet drug. It stops platelets, a kind of blood cell, from congregating and creating a potentially harmful blood clot.
  • If one has a higher risk of developing blood clots, using clopidogrel can help.
  • Clopidogrel has been shown to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and vascular mortality in people with atherosclerosis and in those who have had coronary stents implanted.
  • ITP, CVA, and hemophilia are not suggested conditions to be treated with it.

When not to use clopidogrel?

For some folks, clopidogrel is not a good choice. In order to ensure that this medication is safe for you, let your doctor know if you:

  1. possess an ulcer in the stomach or have had ulcers in the past
  2. have experienced brain bleeding (a brain hemorrhage)
  3. having a bleeding condition, such as hemophilia
