2 points if the fall is between days 5–10 after commencement of treatment 1 point if the fall is after day 10.

Streptokinase is a thrombolytic medication activating plasminogen by nonenzymatic mechanism. [1] As a medication it is used to break down clots in some cases of myocardial infarction (heart attack), pulmonary embolism, and arterial thromboembolism. [2]
In PE, INRs between 2.0 and 3.0 are generally considered ideal. [5] If another episode of PE occurs under warfarin treatment, the INR window may be increased to e.g. 2.5–3.5 (unless there are contraindications) [ citation needed ] or anticoagulation may be changed to a different anticoagulant e.g. LMWH.

Heparin, also known as unfractionated heparin (UFH), is a medication and naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan. [3] [4] Heparin is a blood anticoagulant that increases the activity of antithrombin. [5] It is used in the treatment of heart attacks and unstable angina. [3] It can be given intravenously or by injection under the skin. [3]
