Summary

Postoperative management of oral anticoagulation is a frequent preoccupation in cardiac surgery, concerning about half of patients. Vitamin K antagonists are often recommended but their management is not easy due to the high dose-response patient variability. Pharmacologically more stable, direct oral anticoagulants have similar efficiency in preventing thromboembolic complications while they decrease the risk of bleeding in certain patient populations. The objective of study is to assess the safety and efficacy of direct oral anticoagulants in the postoperative period of cardiac surgical procedures.

Conditions

  • Anticoagulant-induced Bleeding

Interventions

DRUG

Warfarin

It will be started on postoperative day 1 or later when oral anticoagulation is secondary indicated. Daily dose will be adapted to obtain an international normalized ratio of \[2.0-3.0\]. Other anticoagulants will be not administrated.

DRUG

Dabigatran

It will be started when patients will be discharged from our center. Our pharmacist referent will validated the drug and its daily dose. Other anticoagulants will be not administrated.

DRUG

Rivaroxaban

It will be started when patients will be discharged from our center. Our pharmacist referent will validated the drug and its daily dose. Other anticoagulants will be not administrated.

DRUG

Apixaban

It will be started when patients will be discharged from our center. Our pharmacist referent will validated the drug and its daily dose. Other anticoagulants will be not administrated.

DRUG

Edoxaban

It will be started when patients will be discharged from our center. Our pharmacist referent will validated the drug and its daily dose. Other anticoagulants will be not administrated.
