Perioperative Management of Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs): A Systemic Review
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are in wide use among patients requiring both short- and long-term anticoagulation, mainly due to their ease of use and the lack of monitoring requirements. With growing use of DOACs, it is imperative that physicians be able to manage patients on these medications, especially in the perioperative period. We aim to provide guidance on the management of DOACs in...
متن کاملHypercoagulable states: an algorithmic approach to laboratory testing and update on monitoring of direct oral anticoagulants
Hypercoagulability can result from a variety of inherited and, more commonly, acquired conditions. Testing for the underlying cause of thrombosis in a patient is complicated both by the number and variety of clinical conditions that can cause hypercoagulability as well as the many potential assay interferences. Using an algorithmic approach to hypercoagulability testing provides the ability to ...

متن کاملThe laboratory and the direct oral anticoagulants.
Although direct oral anticoagulants do not need laboratory testing for dose adjustment, there are instances when laboratory measurement of the drug anticoagulant effect may be useful. They include before initiation of treatment, before surgical or invasive procedures, on the occasion of hemorrhagic or thrombotic events, and whenever immediate reversal of anticoagulation is needed. Choice of tes...
متن کاملDirect oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and pregnancy: A plea for better information.
The use of anticoagulants in pregnant women is problematic. Many anticoagulants cross the placenta and have the potential to be fetopathic as well as to anticoagulate the fetus. In the early 1980s, a paper by Hall et al. (1) suggested that adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as warfarin embryopathy, an increased risk of miscarriages, anticoagulation of the fetus, and possibly other abnormalities w...
