4 Bruise Control I 1) Mein Patient klagt über häufiges Nasenbluten mit unterschiedlicher Heftigkeit, zuletzt und besonders lästig während eines Flugs nach Mallorca. Er steht unter NOAC (Rivaroxaban) wegen einer unprovozierten TVT vor 3 Monaten. Er hat R deshalb selber abgesetzt. Frage: Mehr Blutungen unter NOACs? Sind kleine Blutungen relevant? Management von Blutungen? Dauer der AK? Risiko-Abwägungen?
