1 How to Manage Antiplatelet Therapy in the Peri-Endoscopic Period Neena S. Abraham MD, MSCE, FACG Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center Sections of Gastroenterology & Health Services Research Associate Professor of Medicine Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX, USA Learning Objectives 1. To accurately assess the risk of endoscopic procedures in non-bleeding patients on antiplatelet therapy 2. To clarify the CV risk of modifying antiplatelet therapy in the peri-endoscopic setting 3. To understand best-practice recommendations for management in the non-urgent and urgent setting 1

2 Clinical Indications for Antiplatelet Therapy Use Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) Non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI) Coronary revascularization Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) Acute cerebrovascular accident (CVA)/Transient ischemic attack (TIA) Acute peripheral occlusion Secondary prevention Coronary artery disease (CAD)/ACS CVA/TIA Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) Heart failure Atrial fibrillation Mechanical valve Antiplatelet Therapy Use in the United States: REACH Registry Antiplatelet agents only (8%) ASA plus antiplatelets and anticoagulants (1%) ASA and anticoagulants (4%) Anticoagulant only (8%) Antiplatelet agents and anticoagulant (1%) ASA and antiplatelet agents (13%) ASA only (69%) Cannon et al.

10 Summary: Management of Antiplatelets Avoid cessation of all antiplatelet therapies after PCI with stent placement when possible. Avoid cessation of clopidogrel (even when ASA is continued) within the first 30 days of PCI and either DES or BMS placement when possible. Defer elective endoscopic procedures, possibly up to 12 months, if clinically acceptable from the time of PCI and DES placement. Perform endoscopic procedures, particularly those associated with high bleeding risk, 5-7 days after thienopyridine drug cessation. ASA should be continued when possible. Resume thienopyridine and ASA drug therapy after the procedure once hemostasis is achieved. Continue platelet-directed therapy in patients undergoing elective endoscopic procedures associated with low risk for bleeding. Becker et al. Am J Gastroenterol

17 Urgent Endoscopy in the Patient with ACS or Recently Placed Stent 1-3% develop GIB with ACS Mortality risk: 4-7 times more than non-bleeders* High procedure-related mortality on the day of the ACS event 12%** Mortality risk drops 1-2% within 30 days of ACS and diagnostic yield is high (85%) *Al-mallah AM et al. J Thromb Thrombolysis 2007; Abbas AE et al. Am J Cardiol **Spier BJ et al. J Clin Gastroenterol Cappell MS. Am J Med Anticoagulant Summary: Urgent Setting Endoscopy therapy is very effective even in patients with elevated INR Rebleeding rates is unaffected by preprocedural INR Correcting INR delays time to procedure Patients who present with GIB leading to ACS should be scoped High likelihood of finding an important lesion Peri-procedural risks are high in the first 24 hours of an ACS event, but decline to 1-2% by 30 days 17

18 Antiplatelet Summary To minimize risk: One size does not fit all. Balance indication and real risk of thrombosis with short-term cessation, vs. indication and endoscopic bleeding risk Consult with cardiologist/hematologist Discuss recommendations with your patient 18
