Perioperative antithrombotic prophylaxis as well as surgical and invasive procedures done in anticoagulated patients ("bridging") have primary importance as regards prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and reducing haemorrhagic complications. It is understandable that overwhelming majority of publications are dealing with major surgery (when usually several days hospitalization is required) while much less papers focus on one-day surgery cases. In this paper a brief survey on VTE epidemiology and prevention is carried out based on the new international and the 4th Hungarian Antithrombotic Guideline. The new protocols suggest that beside general measures a perioperative pharmaceutical antithrombotic prophylaxis is necessary if concomittant inherited and/or acquired thrombophilia is present.

Danaparoid-Consensus Recommendations on Its Clinical Use.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

November 2024

Independent Researcher, 5345 MT Oss, The Netherlands.

(1) Background: Danaparoid sodium is a heparinoid antithrombotic that has been used for over 40 years for prophylaxis of DVT in non-HIT patients and for the treatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) with and without thrombosis. This update summarises current information on its pharmacology and reviews danaparoid dose management in a broad spectrum of clinical situations, including off-label indications. (2) Methods: Evidence from published clinical studies, case reports, compassionate use of danaparoid, and spontaneously reported serious adverse events is summarised and analysed by an interdisciplinary expert group to develop a consensus on dosing regimens of danaparoid for complex clinical situations, including vulnerable patient populations.

The main objective of this study was to investigate the optimal post-left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) anticoagulation strategy, focusing on minimizing device-related thrombosis (DRT) and thromboembolism (TE) events without increasing bleeding risk. After successful LAAC, consecutive participants were treated with 45-day anticoagulants (rivaroxaban 15 mg daily, dabigatran 110 mg twice a day, and warfarin). The efficacy endpoints included DRT, TE, and hospital readmissions due to cardiac caused, while safety endpoints encompassed bleeding events, monitored over a 12-month follow-up period.

The use of new oxygen supports associated to non-invasive respiratory strategies is well-established in clinical practice, especially after its extensive application in the management of Covid-19 respiratory failure. The use of high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) is dramatically increasing. Enzymatic debridement in critical burn patients is a painful treatment that requires an optimal burn pain control protocol as well as a deep sedation for the entire duration of the procedure.

A 12-year-old Bengal cat with unclassified cardiomyopathy presented for signs consistent with aortic thromboembolism (ATE). It was treated with clopidogrel and rivaroxaban as antithrombotic therapy, combined with narcotic analgesia and frusemide. After initially making a clinical improvement, the cat's condition suddenly deteriorated, with a presumptive diagnosis of clostridial myonecrosis.

Untangling areas of improvement in secondary prevention of ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Sci Rep

Health Services Research and Pharmacoepidemiology Unit, Foundation for the Promotion of Health and Biomedical Research of Valencia Region (FISABIO), Avenida Cataluña, 21, 46020, Valencia, Spain.

Improvement of post-stroke outcomes relies on patient adherence and appropriate therapy maintenance by physicians. However, comprehensive evaluation of these factors is often overlooked. This study assesses secondary stroke prevention by differentiating patient adherence to antithrombotic treatments (ATT) from physician-initiated interruptions or switches.
