After termination of oral anticoagulation it takes an average 3 days (Coumadin/Warfarin) or 5 days with (Acetocumarol/Marcumar) to reach subtherapeutic levels II. The European Guidelines allow (additional) two days with subtherapeutic INR

Basic considerations that guide perioperative anticoagulation therapy I. After termination of oral anticoagulation it takes an average 3 days (Coumadin/Warfarin) or 5 days with (Acetocumarol/Marcumar) to reach subtherapeutic levels II. The European Guidelines allow (additional) two days with subtherapeutic INR III. Many surgical procedures can safely be performed with full or mildely subtherapeutic anticoagulation

Artificial Valve Associated Thromboembolic Risk General risk factors: Advanced Age Left atrial enlargement Low LV ejection fraction / Congestive heart failure History of thromboembolism Increased fibrinogen Atrial fibrillation
Artificial Valve Associated Thromboembolic Risk Faktors that are Simultaneously Risk Factors for TE Risk in Atrial Fibrillation General risk factors: Advanced Age Left atrial enlargement Low LV ejection fraction / Congestive heart failure History of thromboembolism Increased fibrinogen Atrial fibrillation
Artificial Valve Associated Thromboembolic Risk Faktors that are Simultaneously Risk Factors for TE Risk in Atrial Fibrillation General risk factors: Advanced Age Left atrial enlargement Low LV ejection fraction / Congestive heart failure History of thromboembolism Increased fibrinogen Atrial fibrillation In essence: Thrombtic risk estimate model for atrial fibrillation patients largely applicable
Hence: Risk assessment for pts with artificial valves may also be based on the atrial fibrillation risk assessment models

Hence: Risk assessment for pts with artificial valves may also be based on the atrial fibrillation risk assessment models But: For the additional valve specific thromboembolic risk factors, the CHADS-VASc-Score certainly underestimates the thromboembolic risk of such pts.
