Summary

Prosthetic valve thrombosis is a serious complication with high mortality and morbidity. However, the best anticoagulant treatment strategies for patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis have not been fully known. In this study the investigators wanted to identify the most effective and safe regimen among different anticoagulant regimens.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Warfarin

Only warfarin is given with a target INR level of 2.5-4 to the patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis

DRUG

Warfarin + ASA 100 mg + PPI

100 mg acetylsalicylic acid and a proton pump inhibitor are added to treatment in combination with warfarin for the patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis

DRUG

Warfarin + ASA 300 mg + PPI

In the third arm 300 mg acetylsalicylic acid and a proton pump inhibitor are added to treatment in combination with warfarin for the patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis

DRUG

Observational Warfarin

This is an observational group of patients who do not have prosthetic heart valve thrombosis. These patients also are followed under only warfarin therapy with INR level of 2.5-4.
