2 Introduction Pediatric thrombosis: - has become a substantial health hazard - may be associated with significant morbidity and mortality - additional impact imposed on the child s family members - greater life expectancy compared with affected elderly - lack of large carefully conducted clinical trials - necessity for improved diagnosis, better definition of outcomes, adapted treatment and prophylactic regimens newer anticoagulant drugs

3 Incidence of VTE in pediatric patients Canadian Registry /10,000 children per year 5.3/10,000 hospital admission Indicendence now 1/10,000 children per year 42-58/10,000 hospital admissions Andrew et al. Blood 1994 Kim et al. J Pediatr Orthop 2014 Raffini et al, Pediatrics 2009

4 VTE Admissions Over Time P < Raffini et al. Pediatrics 2009;124:1001-8

5 The annual rate of VTE increased by 70% [from 34 to 58 cases per hospital admissions (P.001)]. This increase was observed in neonates, infants, children, and adolescents.

6 Reason for increasing incidence Increasing use of CVC for supportive care Better imaging techniques for thrombus detection Increasing awareness of the problem Increasing incidence of critically sick children

7 Age distribution of thrombotic events in published registries from the UK (BPSU), Canada and The Netherlands (DPSU) Chalmers et al., Thrombosis Research 2006

8 RITI: systemic venous TE

9 Sites of thrombosis in child Chalmers et al., Thrombosis Research 2006

10 Etiology and risk factors 1. Endothelial damage Central venous catheters, ventricular-atrial shunts.. Sepsis Trauma Antiphospholipid antibodies Inflammatory conditions 2. Disruption of the laminar blood flow or stasis Post-operative states Immobility Anatomical variants Complex congenital heart disease or cardiomyopathy Total parentaral nutrition 3. Hypercoagulable state Inherited (PC,PS,AT deficiency, FVL, PT20210A, hyperhomocysteine) Acquired (infections, malignancy, pregnancy/hormonal therapy, antiphospholipid antibodies, medications) Pediatric thombotic disorders, edited by Goldenberg NA and Manco-Jhonson MJ, Cambrudge Medicine 2015

11 Risk factors in children True idiopathic VTE, which implies an absence of of either a provoking risk factor or an undelying prothrombotic condition, is rare in children. The majority of VTE is associated with an underlying associated disorder 76.2% Pediatric thombotic disorders, edited by Goldenberg NA and Manco-Jhonson MJ, Cambrudge Medicine 2015

12 Etiology and risk factors Chalmers et al., Thrombosis Research 2006

13 Central venous lines are associated with over 90% of deep vein thrombosis in neonates and 60% of children Neonate Child Adult

14 The number of risk factors in children with deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism Number of risk factors

15 CVC-related thrombosis Significant increase in incidence associated with the following risk factors: - Increasing age - Advanced renal disease - Dyalisis - Inflammatory bowel disease - Total parenteral nutrition Smitherman et al. Hosp Pediatr 2015

27 RITI: systemic venous TE

28 Chest 2012 First VTE standard approach First VTE idiopathic 6-12 months VKA

29 Chest 2012 Secondary VTE 3 months Ongoing reversible risk factor beyond 3 months (therapeutic or prophylactic)

30 Chest 2012 Recurrent idiopathic VTE indefinite - Recurrent secondary VTE, reversible risk factor at least 3 months (until resolution of risk situation)

31 Journal of Thrombosis and haemostasis 2015

32 -VTE and CVC not required removal after 3-5 days treatment -VTE and CVC required and functioning anticoagulation for 3 months + prophylactic VKA or LMWH - If recurrent VTE therapeutic until removal Chest 2012

33 Chest 2012 Acquired and congenital thrombophilia

34 Thrombophilia testing in symptomatic children Universal thrombophilia testing after a first episode of DVT in children is not cost-effective However Some inherited thrombophilias have been associated with increased VTE recurrance anticoagulation duration Therapeutic discussions and decision-making with patients/parents Thromboprophylaxis for adolescents in high-risk situations or counseling for females considering contraception

35 Thrombophilia testing in symptomatic children Results should be interpreted by an experienced physician Adolescent females are most likely to benefit from this information

36 Thrombolysis In children with VTE, we suggest that thrombolysis therapy be used only for lifeor limb-threatening thrombosis (Grade 2C). If thrombolysis is used in the presence of physiologically low levels or pathologic deficiencies of plasminogen, we suggest supplementation with plasminogen (Grade 2C). In children with VTE in whom thrombolysis is used, we suggest systemic thrombolysis or catheter-directed thrombolysis, depending on institutional experience and, in the latter case, technical feasibility.

37 Thrombectomy and IVC filters In children with life-threatening VTE, we suggest thrombectomy (Grade 2C) followed by anticoagulant therapy as for children with first VTE (Grade 2C). In children > 10 kg body weight with lower-extremity VTE and a contraindication to anticoagulation, we suggest placement of a retrievable IVC filter (Grade 2C). In children who receive a filter, we suggest that the filter be removed as soon as possible if thrombosis is not present in the basket of the filter and when contraindication to anticoagulation is resolved (Grade 2C). In children who receive an IVC filter, we recommend appropriate anticoagulation for VTE as soon as the contraindication to anticoagulation is resolved (Grade 1C).

38 PRIMARY THROMBOPROPHYLAXIS IN CHILDREN

39 65% decrease in incidence of VTE in patients who were divided into low-and high-risk categories based on thrombotic and bleeding risk.

40 A risk score of 3 or more identified high-risk children at a sensitivity of 70% and specificity of 80% and AUC of (95% confidence interval, ).

41 We did not find evidence that thromboprophylaxis reduced the risk of CVC-related DVT in children. An adequately powered RCT that can detect a modest, clinically significant reduction in the frequency of DVT is needed to determine the efficacy of thromboprophylaxis against CVC-related DVT in children

42 1. The use of physical methods for VTE risk reduction should be considered in older children and adolescents who are at increased risk of VTE (Grade 1C). 2. Children, particularly adolescents, with multiple risk factors for VTE should be considered for thromboprophylaxis with LMWH (Grade 2C). 3. Primary antithrombotic prophylaxis is not recommended in children with cancer and CVL (Grade 2C). 4. Where possible, CVLs should not be placed in the femoral or subclavian sites, particularly when there is a high risk of thrombosis (Grade 1B). 5. For neonates with CVLs, we recommend to maintain CVL patency with UH continuous infusion at 0.5 u/kg/h over no prophylaxis (Grade 1A) or intermittent local thrombolysis (Grade 2C). 6. For children with short- or medium-term CVLs, we recommend against the use of routine systemic thromboprophylaxis (Grade 1B).

43 Primary prophylaxis in children: open questions Increase request for prophylaxis Protocols like adults after puberty? (BMI?) Candidates to heparin prophylaxis: Neonates with diseases and CVC? Thrombophylic children who undergo major or orthopedic surgery? Increased use of non-pharmacological thromboprophylaxis (elastic stockings? Intermittent pneumatic compression?) Role for new drugs in the prophylaxis of VTE Needs for Pediatrics Thrombosis/Hemostasis Centers in Hospitals Need for a Registry for the identification of children at risk (RITI)

46 The exposures were well tolerated 2 studies reported a combined total of 76 NOA exposures to poison control centers (rivaroxaban and dabigatran) 3 children experienced coagulopathies

47 Conclusions DTV ha become an increasingly recognised complication in children Most of the reccomandation for diagnosis and management are based on extrapolations from adults Anticoagulation is the standard of care and risk stratification algorithms for hospitalized children that include consideration of thromboprophylaxis have been proposed by several publications.

48 Conclusions The present findings on recent published studies and registered trials in pediatric VTE mark an ongoing period of remarkable activity and advancement in the field of pediatric VTE (standard of care, long-term outcome, newer antithrombotic approaches)
