Nafamostat mesylate inhibits coagulation and fibrinolysis. Nafamostat is caused by inactivating action on thrombin, plasmin, trypsin, kallikrein, coagulation factors XIIa and Xa, complements C1r and C1s1,2.
Nafamostat mesylate inhibits coagulation and fibrinolysis. Nafamostat is caused by inactivating action on thrombin, plasmin, trypsin, kallikrein, coagulation factors XIIa and Xa, complements C1r and C1s1,2. Initial sequestration of activated neutrophils and platelet microaggregates in capillaries are responsible for the inflammatory response associated with cardiopulmonary bypass. 1.
