Is interruption of antithrombotic therapy in the perioperative

period needed?

In pts who are having a major surgical or other major

invasive procedure, interruption required to minimize the

risk for perioperative bleeding...

In pts who are undergoing minor surgical or invasive

procedure (eg, dental, skin, or cataract), interruption may

not be required...

Risk Stratification for Bleeding

High bleeding-risk surgeries/procedures include:

Urologic surgery/procedures: TURP, bladder resection or tumor

ablation, nephrectomy or kidney biopsy (untreated tissue damage after

TURP and endogenous urokinase release)

Colonic polyp resection, especially >1-2 cm sessile polyps (bleeding

occurs at transected stalk after hemostatic plug release)

Bowel resection (bleeding may occur at anastomosis site)

Vascular organ surgery: thyroid, liver, spleen

Risk Stratification for Bleeding

High bleeding-risk surgeries/procedures include:

Major surgery involving considerable tissue injury: cancer surgery,

joint arthroplasty, reconstructive plastic surgery

Cardiac, intracranial, intraoccular, or spinal surgery (small bleeds

can have serious clinical consequences)

Pacemaker or ICD implantation (separation of infraclavicular fascia

and no suturing of unopposed tissues may lead to hematoma)…

BRUISE CONTROL study less pocket hematoma @ cont. Warfarin, (3.5% versus

16%; relative risk 0.19; 95% CI 0.10-0.36)

Perioperative Antithrombotic Tx: Key Questions

For intermediate bleeding risk surgery is interruption of

antithrombotic Tx needed?

If antithrombotic therapy is interrupted before surgery, is

“Bridging Anticoagulation” needed?

This depends on Thrombosis-Bleeding risk

balance…

Page 8: Χειρισμός Αντιθρομβωτικής Αγωγής σε μη ... · 2015-05-01 · Thrombelastography (TEG) to determine the timing of CABG in pts on clopidogrel was evaluated

Patras University Hospital

If antithrombotic therapy should be stopped

before surgery to minimize bleeding risk…

~ 12-24 hours for UFH/LMWH

~ 2-3 days for NOACs

~5 days for warfarin

~7-10 days for antiplatelet drugs

Minimizing the Risk of Perioperative Bleeding

In resuming treatment after surgery, it takes:

- 2-3 days for anticoagulant effect to begin after starting

VKAs…

- 3-5 h for peak anticoagulant effect after starting LMWH

- 2-3h for peak anticoagulant effect after starting NOACs

- Mins for an antiplatelet effect to begin after starting ASA

- 1-6 Hrs for an antiplatelet effect to begin after starting a

maintenance dose of clop/pras/ticag…

Most surgery/procedures done out-of-hospital and

potential TE or bleeding complications occur during

the initial 2 wks after surgery while patient is at home…

- Close pt FU during early postop period allows early

detection and treatment of complications…

Minimizing the Risk of Perioperative Events…

Perioperative Antithrombotic Tx: Thrombotic Risk

Patients' estimated risk for thromboembolism (TE):

High-risk pts: need to prevent TE will dominate management

irrespective of bleeding risk; (the potential consequences of TE may

justify bridging)

Moderate-risk pts: a single perioperative strategy is not dominant and

management will depend on individual patient risk assessment

Low-risk pts: need to prevent TE will be less dominant; (bridging may

be avoided)

Perioperative Antithrombotic Tx: Bridging…

Patients' estimated risk for thromboembolism (TE):

In all patients, judicious use of postoperative

bridging is needed to minimizing bleeding that

would have the undesired effect of delaying

resumption of antithrombotic therapy after

surgery…

Patients With ACS: Facts…

DAPT is mandatory for 1 year following an ACS

Newer antiplatelet agents (NAPA) are more potent

than clopidogrel in reducing ischemic end-points

NAPA increase bleeding risk compared to clopidogrel

Patients with increased ischemic risk also have

increased bleeding risk…

What Does the Surgeon Recommend if a Pt

with a Recent Stent Needs Surgery?

Fear of excessive bleeding leads to the generally

accepted policy of discontinuing antiplatelet

agents 7-10 days before surgery…

Not uncommonly surgeons recommend

discontinuation for 14 days, or even 2-3 days!!!

DAPT may not be protective perioperatively

Most urgent interventions performed in a proinflammatory

and prothrombotic milieu, (cancer, trauma, and anemia)…

Operative trauma: hypercoagulable state...

Increased PLTs, von Willebrand factor, fibrinogen, etc, impaired

deformability of erythrocytes, decreased proteins that oppose

formation of stable fibrin

CABG: cardiopulmonary bypass circuit may also induce systemic

prothrombotic state by activating tissue factor, kallikrein, and

complement

Clopidogrel: poorly absorbed and requires extensive

metabolism, a process that is dramatically impaired in

acutely ill pts because of splanchnic and liver

hypoperfusion, and reduced gastric emptying resulting

from the use of opioids for analgesia and sedation…

Perioperative Events in Stented Pts…

The incidence of perioperative death, MI and ST decreases over time…

Particularly high (up to 30%) in the 1st mo regardless of the type of implanted

stent; 10–15% at 2-6 mos; and< 10% after 6 mos

The indication for index stenting SAP vs. ACS is probably more

important than the type of stent deployed, or even timing...

The risk of cardiac adverse events in pts @ recent PCI does not seem to

depend on ST alone, but on the more general coronary risk …

The first postoperative week is the most critical: in the EVENT Registry,

the risk of death, MI or ST was 27-fold higher in the week following NCS

than in any other week after stent implantation…

Key Issues to be Addressed…

Whether continuing perioperative DAPT protects against

cardiac ischemic events

The extent to which it increases the risk of surgical

bleeding

How to balance the potential benefits and risks in individual

patients

This subject has been discussed by cardiovascular surgeons for

20 years with regard to aspirin, and for a few years with regard to

clopidogrel added to aspirin

Patients With Coronary Stents Having Surgery

Recommendation: In pts with a coronary stent who are

receiving DAPT and require surgery, we recommend deferring

surgery for at least 6 wks after placement of a BMS and for

at least 6 mos after placement of a DES (Grade 1C)

Recommendation: In pts who require surgery within 6 wks of

placement of a BMS or 6 mos of placement of a DES, we

suggest continuing DAPT around the time of surgery instead

of stopping DAPT 7-10 days before surgery (Grade 2C)

Patras University Hospital

What does ESC recommend?

DAPT for at least 1 mo after BMS in stable CAD, 6 mo

after ng-DES, and up to 1 yr after ACS, irrespective of

revascularization strategy

A minimum of 1 (BMS) to 3 (ng-DES) mo of DAPT might

be acceptable, independently of the acuteness of CAD,

in cases when surgery cannot be delayed for a longer

period

Such surgical procedures should be performed in hospitals

where 24/7 catheterization laboratories are available…

Thrombelastography (TEG) to determine the timing of CABG in pts on

clopidogrel was evaluated in the first prospective study, TARGET CABG

which showed that pts non–responsive by TEG had no greater chest

tube output when operated within 24 hrs of last clopidogrel dose

compared to clopidogrel naïve pts.

Compared with the guidelines, this individualized

approach reduced the pre-operative waiting

period by about 50%

Summary results

When used as a bridging strategy to CABG after

thienopyridine discontinuation, cangrelor (at 0.75

µg/kg/min) achieves levels of platelet inhibition known to

be associated with a low risk of thrombotic events:

Without increased risk of bleeding before or during CABG,

although with a numerical increase in minor pre-CABG bleeding

Independent of prior thienopyridine dose & time of

discontinuation

Consistent pharmaocdynamic effect during IV infusion

Rapid offset after IV discontinuation prior to surgery

No increased incidence of adverse events (e.g.

dyspnea) or laboratory abnormalities despite extended

dosing.

Bridging strategy: Limitations

Requires prolonged hospitalization

Carries increased risk for bleeding

Is costly

Does not address the risk during the

Carefully balance

Bleeding risk (intracranial/spine/abdominal/prostate/etc)

Ischemic risk (recent ACS, stent type, lesion type)

ASA should be continued (especially if DES < 12 mo)

If Low Thrombotic Risk

Stop Prasugrel 7 days before surgery

Stop Clopidogrel-Ticagrelor 5 days before surgery

Stop clopidogrel 5 days before surgery, or less, if a validated platelet function

testing method shows a poor response to clopidogrel…

Patients Requiring Minor Procedures

Recommendation: Minor dental surgery, either continue

VKA with co-administration of an oral prohemostatic agent or

stop VKAs 2-3 days before the procedure (Grade 2C)

Recommendation: Minor skin procedures, continue

VKAs and optimize local hemostasis (Grade 2C)

Recommendation: Cataract surgery, continue VKAs

(Grade 2C)

Pts at High Risk for TE having Major Surgery

Recommendation: In pts who require temporary interruption

of a VKA before surgery, we recommend stopping VKAs

approximately 5 days before surgery (Grade 1C)

Recommendation: In pts who require temporary interruption

of a VKA before surgery, we recommend resuming VKAs

approximately 12-24 hrs after surgery (evening of or next

morning) when there is adequate hemostasis (Grade 2C)

Pts at High Risk for TE having Major Surgery

Recommendation: In pts with a mechanical

heart valve, Afib or VTE at high risk for TE,

we suggest bridging anticoagulation

(Grade 2C)

Pts at Low Risk for TE Having Major Surgery

Recommendation: In pts with a mechanical heart valve,

Afib or VTE at low-risk for TE, we suggest no bridging

(Grade 2C)

N.B. In pts at moderate-risk for TE, the bridging or no

bridging approach chosen is, as in the higher and lower risk

pts, based on an assessment of individual patient- and

surgery-related factors…

Perioperative Administration of Bridging

Recommendation: In pts who are receiving bridging

anticoagulation with therapeutic-dose SC LMWH, we suggest

administering the last preoperative dose approximately 24 h

before surgery instead of 12 h before surgery (Grade 2C)

Recommendation: In pts who are receiving bridging

anticoagulation with therapeutic-dose SC LMWH and are

undergoing high bleeding-risk surgery, we suggest

resuming therapeutic-dose LMWH 48-72 h after surgery

instead of resuming LMWH within 24 h after surgery (Grade

2C)

What does ESC recommend?

Stop VKA 3–5 days before surgery (depending on the

type of VKA),with daily INR measurements, until ≤1.5 is

reached, and that LMWH or UFH therapy be started

one day after discontinuation of VKA—or later, as

soon as the INR is 2.0

The last dose of LMWH should be administered no later

than 12 hrs before the procedure…

What does ESC recommend?

LMWH or UFH is resumed at the pre-procedural dose

1–2 days after surgery, depending on the patient’s

haemostatic status, but at least 12 hours after the

procedure

VKAs should be resumed on day 1 or 2 after surgery—

depending on adequate haemostasis—with the pre-

operative maintenance dose plus a boosting dose of

50% for two consecutive days…

Because of the fast ‘on’-effect of NOACs,

resumption of treatment after surgery should

be delayed for 1–2 (in some cases 3–5)

days, until post-surgical bleeding tendency is

diminished…
