Healthcare (Basel) 2024; 12:1537. [PMID: 39120240 PMCID: PMC11311453 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare12151537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2024] [Revised: 07/22/2024] [Accepted: 08/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anticoagulant drugs are a valuable tool for minimizing thrombotic risks in at-risk patients. The purpose of this study is to conduct a literature review highlighting the management of these drugs during daily clinical dental practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS We limited our search to English-language papers published between 1 January 1989, and 7 March 2024, in PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science that were relevant to our topic. In the search approach, the Boolean keywords "anticoagulant AND dentistry" were used. RESULTS Twenty-five clinical trials were included for final review from 623 articles obtained from the databases Web of Science (83), PubMed (382), and Scopus (158), eliminating duplicates and 79 off-topic items, resulting in 419 articles after removing 315 entries and confirming eligibility. Overall, these studies support the use of local hemostatic measures to manage the risk of bleeding in patients on anticoagulant therapy undergoing dental procedures and highlight the importance of greater education and collaboration among healthcare professionals. CONCLUSIONS Research and clinical investigation have improved understanding and management of dental procedures in patients undergoing anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy. Hemostatic agents, clinical protocols, risk factors, and continuous education are essential for navigating the complexities of anticoagulant therapy, ensuring optimal outcomes and enhancing patient well-being.

Abstract
Background An increased risk of anemia during edoxaban thromboprophylaxis in orthopedic surgery has been reported. However, the risk factors for the exacerbation of anemia requiring transfusion with irradiated red blood cell concentrates during postoperative edoxaban thromboprophylaxis remain unknown. Therefore, this study investigated the factors that increase the possibility of transfusion during edoxaban thromboprophylaxis after orthopedic surgery by reanalyzing clinical data from a previous collection. Methods A total of 221 patients who underwent total hip or knee arthroplasty at a single center between July 2011 and June 2012 were included in this study. Among these, 167 patients who received 30 mg of postoperative edoxaban thromboprophylaxis were retrospectively analyzed to identify critical factors for transfusion during edoxaban thromboprophylaxis after orthopedic surgery. Results Lower preoperative hemoglobin levels and higher intraoperative blood loss per body weight were significantly associated with an increase in the frequency of transfusion during postoperative edoxaban thromboprophylaxis. These factors were also potentially related to increased coagulation parameters during edoxaban thromboprophylaxis. Conclusion Our study shows that lower preoperative hemoglobin levels and higher intraoperative blood loss are associated with increased coagulation parameters with edoxaban thromboprophylaxis after orthopedic surgery and may lead to worsening of anemia, thereby requiring blood transfusion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Direct factor Xa inhibitors rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban, commonly used direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC), are widely used to prevent and treat stroke and venous thromboembolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). This study aimed to assess and compare reports of adverse events associated with rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban, including hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic events. METHODS Reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Medications and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), and the information component (IC) were used to perform a risk assessment of adverse event reports in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database for the years 2018-2022. RESULTS Combined with disproportionality analysis in different backgrounds, the salient risks of the three-factor Xa inhibitors varied. Rivaroxaban had the most significant risk of hemorrhage, apixaban had a higher incidence and risk of death, cardiac and cerebral adverse events, and edoxaban showed a more prominent risk in the kidneys and urinary system. CONCLUSION Hemorrhage is a common risk with factor Xa inhibitors, with rivaroxaban being the most significant. Apixaban and edoxaban also showed significant association with non-hemorrhagic adverse events, and increased attention to non-hemorrhagic adverse events is needed in clinical use.

Abstract
Edoxaban (Edx) has been approved to prevent venous thromboembolism after total knee and/or hip arthroplasty in Japan. However, the risk of anemia with Edx treatment remains elusive. No risk factors for Edx-associated anemia after orthopedic surgery have been reported. This study aimed to clarify the risk of anemia associated with Edx treatment and determine the risk factors for Edx-associated anemia after orthopedic surgery with a high risk for bleeding. First, the association between Edx treatment and the incidence of anemia-related events was retrospectively investigated by pharmacovigilance analyses using data from 5769,866 reports between the first quarters of 2016 and 2020 in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System and 2752,050 reports between the fourth quarters of 2011 and 2019 in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report. Second, 221 patients who underwent Edx treatment after total knee and/or hip arthroplasty between July 2011 and June 2012 at a single center were included in a case-control study to clarify the risk factors for anemia. Edx treatment was associated with an increased risk of anemia-related events in orthopedic patients. Reduced renal function was identified as a critical risk factor for Edx-associated anemia after orthopedic surgery. The present study indicates that renal function should be considered in the risk management of increased Edx-associated anemia after orthopedic surgery.

Different Coagulation Indicators in Predicting Clinical Outcomes for Patients With Direct Oral Anticoagulants: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Clin Ther 2020; 42:2066-2081.e9. [PMID: 32900534 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinthera.2020.08.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2020] [Revised: 06/18/2020] [Accepted: 08/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE There are many anticoagulant test indexes available for direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), but how to select the appropriate index and the index cutoff values are still controversial. This is the first study, to our knowledge, to assess the association of different coagulation indicators with clinical outcomes among DOACs using a meta-analysis of observational studies. METHODS A medical literature search was conducted using PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, ClinicalTrials.gov, and the Cochrane Library from inception to February 2020. Studies that reported relationships between coagulation indexes and clinical outcomes or the diagnostic value of coagulation assays were included in the analysis. FINDINGS A total of 17 articles (7 meta-analyses and 10 systematic reviews) from 8904 citations were included in the analysis. In the analysis of bleeding events with coagulation indexes for DOACs, for peak prothrombin time level (cutoff value of 19-25 s), the pooled results found a sensitivity of 0.61 (95% CI, 0.44-0.75) and a specificity of 0.71 (95% CI, 0.49-0.86). For rivaroxaban, the trough anti-factor Xa concentration (AXA-C) (cutoff value of 400-500 ng/mL) had a sensitivity of 0.53 (95% CI, 0.16-0.87) and a specificity of 0.87 (95% CI, 0.71-0.94), with a diagnostic odds ratio of 7 (95% CI, 2-32). For apixaban, trough AXA-C had a sensitivity of 0.85 (95% CI, 0.60-0.96) and a specificity of 0.83 (95% CI, 0.52-0.95). The AUC of the AXA-C peak was higher than that of the trough AXA-C for apixaban, with a higher sensitivity and specificity. Compared with trough concentration of anti-factor IIa for dabigatran, the peak concentration had a higher specificity (98%) at the cutoff value of 484 ng/mL. In the analysis of thromboembolic events with coagulation indexes for DOACs, peak and trough prothrombin time values were not typically correlated with subsequent symptomatic venous thromboembolism, without a sensitivity or specificity higher than 90%. Trough AXA-C had a sensitivity of 100% and but a low specificity (<50%) for rivaroxaban-apixaban. Trough AXA-C had a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 32% with a cutoff value of 108 ng/mL for dabigatran. IMPLICATION Peak prothrombin time (19-25 s) and AXA-C had a better predictive value on bleeding outcomes for rivaroxaban and apixaban, whereas peak concentration of anti-factor IIa activity can be an indicator for dabigatran. Coagulation indexes might not be a good indicator of thromboembolic events of DOACs. Because the limited studies focused on association of coagulation indicators and clinical outcomes, more studies are needed to verify this in the future.

Does Prophylactic Administration of Edoxaban Increase D-Dimer Levels after Total Hip Arthroplasty? J Clin Med 2019; 8:jcm8050678. [PMID: 31091769 PMCID: PMC6571743 DOI: 10.3390/jcm8050678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Revised: 05/10/2019] [Accepted: 05/13/2019] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to examine the effect of thromboprophylactic edoxaban on D-dimer levels and anemia after total hip arthroplasty (THA). We retrospectively analyzed data from 349 patients undergoing primary THA. Univariate regression and multivariate regression analyses were performed with D-dimer levels on the 7th, 14th, and 21st days postoperatively as the dependent variable Edoxaban use, age, sex, body mass index (BMI), renal function, drop in hemoglobin (Hb) drop, intraoperative blood loss and duration of surgery as were independent variables. Multivariate regression analysis was also performed with Hb drop as the dependent variable. Edoxaban administration of 15 mg/day and 30 mg/day after THA was correlated with higher D-dimer levels at 21, but not at 7 or 14, days postoperatively. Other significant independent predictors for high D-dimer levels were the duration of surgery (at 7 and 14 days), BMI (at 7 days), sex (at 14 days), and age (at 14 and 21 days). Edoxaban use was significantly, weakly correlated with a larger Hb drop at 7 and 14 days, but this was less than a clinically important difference. D-dimer levels after THA can be elevated by thromboprophylactic edoxaban after three weeks postoperatively.
