RESUMEN
El papel de la trombina en el proceso de coagulación es considerado de gran importancia. Esta enzima, cuya acción fisiológica es evitar la extravasación de sangre, posterior al daño vascular y promover la reparación del tejido, también tiene una manifestación adversa: la trombosis.Los anticoagulantes tienen un lugar importante en la terapéutica de diversas patologías, principalmente en la isquémica y vascular cardiacas. Durante mucho tiempo sólo se contaba con la heparina estándar y las cumarinas (warfarina), que aunque se constituían como medicamentos de elección para la terapéutica de las enfermedades vasculares, conllevan efectos colaterales adversos. Sin embargo, en un futuro existe la posibilidad de sustituirlos por fármacos específicos para inhibir la trombosis, ya que estos medicamentos ofrecen resultados más seguros para lograr la prevención y propagación de trombos en las enfermedades cardiovasculares. Por ejemplo, el tratamiento indicado en cardiopatía isquémica es la trombólisis más ácido acetilsalicílico más heparina, no sin antes realizar un análisis cuidadoso del paciente.
