5 Anticoagulation and perioperative management Low bleeding risk Tooth extraction Root canal procedures Small skin excisions Endoscopic procedures with low bleeding risk Cataract surgery Minor bleeding: OR 3.3 (95% CI ); Jamula, Thromb Res 2009 Perioorbital bleeding and retrobulbar anesthesia: 1/136 (<1%) Katz, Ophthalmology 2003 Dunn, Arch Intern Med 2003

6 Anticoagulation and perioperative management High bleeding risk Intracranial or intraspinal surgery Coronary artery bypass Major vascular surgery Major orthopedic surgery Major cancer surgery Reconstructive plastic surgery Urogenital surgery Colonpolypectomie (particularly > 1 cm Ø) Prostate- or kidney biopsy

7 Thromboembolic risk categories Thromboembolic Risk Atrial Fibrillation Mechanical Heart Valves Venous Thromboembolism High CHADS 2 5,6 Mitral valve Older aortic valve (caged-ball, tilting disk) Stroke/TIA < 3 mo VTE < 3 mo Moderate CHADS 2 3,4 Bileaflet aortic valve + risk factor VTE > 3-12 mo Low CHADS Bileaflet aortic valve w/o risk factor VTE > 12 mo Douketis, Blood 2011

10 Anticoagulation and perioperative management Practical advice Do not stop VKA too early

11 Discontinuation of VKA PREOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT Stop warfarin Stop acenocoumarol THROMBOPROPHYLAXIS NO VKA Days P Check INR if < 1.5: surgery possible Check INR if >2.0: 6-10 mg vit. K p.o. Check INR if >2.0 (>2.5): check daily if <2.0 (<2.5): LMWH (except low thrombotic risk)

12 Anticoagulation and perioperative management Practical advice Do not stop VKA too early Last therapeutic dose of LMWH 24 h before surgery

13 Discontinuation of VKA POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT THERAPEUTIC LMWH DOSE High/moderate THROMBOTIC RISK PROPHYLACTIC STOP LMWH IF INR >2.0 RESUME VKA DAYS 0P RESUME VKA Low THROMBOTIC RISK USUAL THROMBOPROPHYLAXIS STOP LMWH IF INR >2.0

14 Anticoagulation and perioperative management Practical advice Do not stop VKA too early Last therapeutic dose of LMWH 24 h before surgery Resume therapeutic LMWH not before 48 h postop.
