Recent Case

Figured I would share this recent case. 61yo M with history of ESLD, HRS and ESRD on MWF dialysis, Afib (rate controlled, but not on anticoagulation) and COPD on 3L of home O2. Fell at his nursing home and broke his hip. Ortho has him booked for a hemi-arthroplasty. INR is 2.0 and PLT count is 67. Hgb is 7.5. Patient is being given Vitamin K to reverse INR prior to scheduled case tomorrow. What's your plan?
