Debates Surrounding the Use of Antithrombotic Therapy in Hemophilic Patients with Cardiovascular Disease: Best Strategies to Minimize Severe Bleeding Risk. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:7845. [PMID: 39063087 PMCID: PMC11277257 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25147845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Navigating through antithrombotic therapy in patients with both hemophilia and cardiovascular pathology presents a complex scenario with inherent challenges and opportunities. The presence of hemophilia, characterized by impaired blood clotting, adds a layer of complexity to the management of cardiovascular conditions requiring antiplatelet therapy and anticoagulation. Striking a delicate balance between the necessity for antithrombotic treatment to prevent cardiovascular events and the heightened risk of severe bleeding in individuals with hemophilia demands a nuanced and carefully considered approach. The challenges revolve around identifying an optimal therapeutic strategy that effectively mitigates cardiovascular risks without exacerbating bleeding tendencies. In hemophilic patients with cardiovascular disease, the decision to use antiplatelet therapy requires careful consideration of the individual's bleeding risk profile, considering factors such as the severity of hemophilia, history of bleeding episodes, and concurrent medications. The goal is to provide effective antithrombotic treatment while minimizing the potential for excessive bleeding complications. Conventional anticoagulants like warfarin pose difficulties due to their potential to increase the risk of bleeding. On the other hand, emerging options like novel direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) present an opportunity, offering predictable pharmacokinetics and user-friendly administration. However, a comprehensive exploration of their safety and efficacy in hemophilic patients is imperative. Achieving the right equilibrium between preventing cardiovascular events and minimizing bleeding risk is pivotal in selecting the most effective therapeutic option for individuals with hemophilia and cardiovascular pathology. A multidisciplinary approach, integrating the expertise of hematologists and cardiologists, becomes essential to customize treatments and address the intricacies of this medical challenge.

Abstract
Optimal management of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in people with haemophilia (PWH) is a growing issue, given the continuing improvement in life expectancy among PWH. The evolving treatment paradigms targeting higher trough levels and the advent of non-factor replacement therapies (NFRT) means much of the 'protection' PWH were thought to have against CVD may be lost. There is a paucity of evidence regarding the safety of using anticoagulants in PWH. We designed a study assessing the thrombin generation (TG) of PWH of different severities and treatments, compared to non-haemophilia patients receiving a Factor Xa (FXa) inhibitor (apixaban or rivaroxaban), healthy controls, and assessing TG parameters of adding FXa inhibitor to the plasma of PWH receiving emicizumab prophylaxis. In total, 40 patients were included. TG was initiated with 5pM tissue factor (TF) using the calibrated automated thrombinoscope. Compared to those with mild haemophilia, patients receiving a FXa inhibitor had higher endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) (1278.42 vs 1831.36) and velocity index (40.71 vs 112.56), but both had a similar peak height (154.0 vs 262.63) and time to peak (both 5.83). People with severe haemophilia receiving emicizumab had significantly improved TG parameters compared to those not receiving emicizumab - ETP 1678.11 vs 809.96 and peak height 233.8 vs 92.05; however, when FXa inhibitor was added their TG parameters deteriorated to the severe haemophilia range (ETP 1179.60 and peak height 103.05). TG may provide additional useful information regarding the use of anticoagulants in PWH.

Abstract
Anticoagulation therapy (AT) is fundamental in atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment but poses challenges in implementation, especially in AF populations with elevated thromboembolic and bleeding risks. Current guidelines emphasize the need to estimate and balance thrombosis and bleeding risks for all potential candidates of antithrombotic therapy. However, administering oral AT raises concerns in specific populations, such as those with chronic kidney disease (CKD), coagulation disorders, and cancer due to lack of robust data. These groups, excluded from large direct oral anticoagulants trials, rely on observational studies, prompting physicians to adopt individualized management strategies based on case-specific evaluations. The scarcity of evidence and specific guidelines underline the need for a tailored approach, emphasizing regular reassessment of risk factors and anticoagulation drug doses. This narrative review aims to summarize evidence and recommendations for challenging AF clinical scenarios, particularly in the long-term management of AT for patients with CKD, coagulation disorders, and cancer.

Abstract
Revolutionary advances in the treatment of hemophilia has led to a significant improvement in life expectancy. Associated with this has been an increase in age-related diseases especially atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). While people with hemophilia (PWH) develop atherosclerosis at rates similar to those of the general population, rates of atherothrombosis and mortality related to CVD have been much lower, due to their hypocoagulable state. Changing treatment paradigms, aimed at reducing the risk of bleeding by improving hemostasis to levels approaching normality, has meant that the protection they are thought to have had may be lost. CVD risk factors are just as common in PWH as in the general population, but appear to be undertreated. In particular, primary prevention of CVD is vital in all individuals, but particularly in PWH as treatment of established CVD can be difficult. Active identification and management of CVD risk factors, such as obesity, physical inactivity, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia, is required. In particular, statins have been shown to significantly reduce cardiovascular and all-cause mortality with few adverse events and no increased risk of bleeding in the general population, and their use needs urgent assessment in PWH. Further longitudinal research into preventing CVD in PWH, including accurate CVD risk assessment, is required to optimize prevention and management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thromboembolic events are increasingly reported in the aging haemophilia population. The purpose of this study was to understand current practices and identify knowledge and research gaps in the management of persons with haemophilia requiring antithrombotic therapy for cardiovascular disorders (CVD) or venous thromboembolism (VTE). METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and Scopus for studies reporting on more than two patients with inherited haemophilia A or B, without inhibitors, requiring antithrombotic therapy for CVD or VTE. Data were extracted by two independent reviewers and analysed using descriptive statistics and narrative synthesis. RESULTS We included 32 studies reporting on 432 persons with haemophilia. Three themes described the observed practice variation: (1) Difficulty weighing competing bleeding and thrombotic risks; (2) Tensions in providing standards of care and minimizing bleeding risk; (3) Advocacy for individualized strategies and multidisciplinary care. Different management strategies were used to treat persons with haemophilia in the setting of thromboembolic events, such as avoiding or choosing lower intensity antithrombotic therapy, or procedural alternatives to antithrombotic therapy. Initiation or alteration in haemostatic therapies along with antithrombotic therapy were common strategies and reported in 30 studies. However, data on target factor levels and bleeding and thrombotic events were largely missing. DISCUSSION Our scoping review highlights unmet needs in the management of an aging population of persons with haemophilia with increasing prevalence of CVD and VTE. Management is inconsistent and divergent from those of non-haemophilic patients. Prospective data are needed to inform optimal and evidence-based management strategies of CVD and VTE in persons with haemophilia.

Abstract
Advances in the treatment of hemophilia have increased the life expectancy of this population and we are currently facing diseases associated with aging, including cardiovascular ones. Coronary atherosclerosis, with acute myocardial infarction as the most severe form of manifestation, has been recognized as part of the comorbidities of hemophiliacs. However, little is known about peripheral artery disease. Available data show that hemophiliacs have cardiovascular risk factors and atherosclerosis similar to the general population. Impaired thrombus formation and phenotype of atheroma plaque rather than the burden of atherosclerosis explains their lower cardiovascular mortality. Since the effect of traditional cardiovascular risk factors overpowers that of decreased coagulability and promotes the onset and progression of atherosclerotic lesions, screening for traditional cardiovascular risk factors and peripheral artery disease should be integrated into standard hemophilia care. There is evidence that invasive treatments and long-term antithrombotic therapy are generally safe, provided that coagulation factor levels are taken into account and replacement therapy is given when necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mortality rate of Brazilian people with haemophilia (PwH) is decreasing, but the relative incidence of deaths associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is increasing. OBJECTIVES We aimed to describe the CVD risk score of PwH according to Pooled Cohort Equations Risk (PCER) Calculator tool and its treatment recommendations. We also compared the PCER estimates with the respective Framingham Risk Score (FRS). METHODS This cross-sectional study included male PwH ≥ 40 years treated at the Comprehensive Haemophilia Treatment Centre of Pernambuco (Recife/Brazil). PwH with a previous CVD event or a low-density lipid cholesterol ≥ 5.0 mmol/L were excluded. Interviews, medical file reviews, and blood tests were performed. The PCER tool was used to estimate the CVD risk and compare it with the respective FRS. A p-value < 0.05 was accepted as statistically significant. RESULTS Thirty PwH were included. Median age was 51.5 [interquartile range-IQR; 46.0-59.5] years. The prevalence of obesity, systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypertriglyceridaemia, hypercholesterolaemia, and hypoHDLaemia were 20%, 67%, 24%, 14%, 47%, and 23%, respectively. The median PCER score was 6.9% [IQR; 3.1-13.2], with 50% having a high risk (PCER ≥ 7.5%). Statin use was suggested for 54% of PwH. Blood pressure was poorly controlled in 47% of PwH. The agreement between PCER and FRS was 80% (κ = 0.60; p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Half of the male people with haemophilia aged 40 years or older had a 10-year high risk of developing CVD with strong recommendations to improve control of dyslipidaemia and blood pressure.

Abstract
With the striking advances in hemophilia care that have materialized particularly in the last two decades, an increasing number of persons with hemophilia (PWH) have achieved a quality of life and life expectancy very close to that of unaffected individuals. With aging, a growing number of PWH develop age-related co-morbidities, including cancer and cardiovascular disease. The latter (particularly coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation) represent a new challenge for the hemophilia treatment centers because their management implies a delicate balance between the thrombotic risk and bleeding tendency, that is further enhanced by the concomitant use of antithrombotic agents. Because evidence from clinical trials is lacking, the management of PWH with cardiovascular diseases is mostly based on expert opinions, personal experiences, and the adaptation of the evidence stemming from studies on people without hemophilia. In this article, we focus on how to manage coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation in patients with hemophilia.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is an emerging medical issue in patients with hemophilia (PWH) and its prevalence is increasing up to 15% in PWH in the United States. Atrial fibrillation, acute and chronic coronary syndromes, venous thromboembolism, and cerebral thrombosis are frequent thrombotic or prothrombotic situations, which require a careful approach to fine-tune the delicate balance between thrombosis and hemostasis in PWH when using both procoagulant and anticoagulant treatments. Generally, PWH could be considered as being naturally anticoagulated when clotting factors are <20 IU/dL, but specific recommendations in patients with very low levels according to the different clinical situations are lacking and mainly based on the anecdotal series. For PWH with baseline clotting factor levels >20 IU/dL in need for any form of antithrombotic therapy, usually treatment without additional clotting factor prophylaxis could be used, but careful monitoring for bleeding is recommended. For antiplatelet treatment, this threshold could be lower with single-antiplatelet agent, but again factor level should be at least 20 IU/dL for dual antiplatelet treatment. In this complex growing scenario, the European Hematology Association in collaboration with the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis, the European Association for Hemophilia and Allied Disorders, the European Stroke Organization, and a representative of the European Society of Cardiology Working Group on Thrombosis has produced this current guidance document to provide clinical practice recommendations for health care providers who care for PWH.

Abstract
To analyze existing literature and understand how to balance the minimization of bleeding risk and ensuring adequate anticoagulation during coronary intervention treatment and long-term postoperative anticoagulation in hemophilia patients during the perioperative period, in order to provide guidance for healthcare professionals in developing effective treatment plans. This narrative review will analyze existing studies, case reports, and clinical guidelines to determine the most effective strategies for managing acute coronary syndrome in hemophilia patients. When evaluating the literature, factors such as patient age, medical history, and severity of the condition will be considered. The current management guidelines for acute coronary syndrome in hemophilia patients are not based on systematic evaluation and mainly rely on expert opinions. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of existing literature and recommends coagulation factor replacement therapy before anticoagulation and intervention treatment, as well as personalized anticoagulation treatment during the postoperative period for better management of hemophilia patients with acute coronary syndrome. These recommendations can help healthcare professionals develop more effective treatment plans for hemophilia patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Decades of research have transformed hemophilia from severely limiting children's lives to a manageable disorder compatible with a full, active life, for many in high-income countries. The direction of future research will determine whether exciting developments truly advance health equity for all people with hemophilia (PWH). National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF) and American Thrombosis and Hemostasis Network conducted extensive inclusive all-stakeholder consultations to identify the priorities of people with inherited bleeding disorders and those who care for them. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Working group (WG) 1 of the NHF State of the Science Research Summit distilled the community-identified priorities for hemophilia A and B into concrete research questions and scored their feasibility, impact, and risk. RESULTS WG1 defined 63 top priority research questions concerning arthropathy/pain/bone health, inhibitors, diagnostics, gene therapy, the pediatric to adult transition of care, disparities faced by the community, and cardiovascular disease. This research has the potential to empower PWH to thrive despite lifelong comorbidities and achieve new standards of wellbeing, including psychosocial. CONCLUSIONS Collaborative research and care delivery will be key to capitalizing on current and horizon treatments and harnessing technical advances to improve diagnostics and testing, to advance health equity for all PWH.

Abstract
Spontaneous cervical artery dissection (sCeAD) is the most common cause of ischemic stroke at a young age, but its pathogenetic mechanism and risk factors are not fully elucidated. It is reasonable to think that bleeding propensity, vascular risk factors such as hypertension and head or neck trauma, and constitutional weakness of the arterial wall together play a role in the pathogenesis of sCeAD. Hemophilia A is known to be an X-linked condition that leads to spontaneous bleeding in various tissues and organs. To date, a few cases of acute arterial dissection in patients with hemophilia have been reported, but the relationship between these two diseases has not been studied so far. In addition, there are no guidelines indicating the best antithrombotic treatment option in these patients. We report the case of a man with hemophilia A who developed sCeAD and transient oculo-pyramidal syndrome and was treated with acetylsalicylic acid. We also review previous published cases of arterial dissection in patients with hemophilia, discussing the potential pathogenetic mechanism underlying this rare association and potential antithrombotic therapeutic options.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION As people with haemophilia (PWH) receive better treatment and live longer they are more likely to encounter cardiovascular disease (CVD) and other comorbidities. ESC guidelines for the acute management of patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are based on the non-haemophilia population. AIM To review the guidelines and propose relevant adaptations for PWHA without inhibitors who are treated with prophylaxis and present with ACS. METHODS As part of the ADVANCE Group, 20 European haemophilia experts used a modified Delphi approach to develop and gain consensus on proposed adaptations of the ESC guidelines for PWHA without inhibitors. RESULTS Of the 32 Class I recommendations across both guidelines, adaptions were considered necessary and proposed for 15. The adaptions highlight the need to provide sufficient FVIII trough levels at the time of antithrombotic treatment in people with haemophilia A (HA) without inhibitors. Patients receiving emicizumab prophylaxis and requiring oral anticoagulation therapy or combined single antiplatelet plus oral anticoagulation therapy will require additional FVIII replacement therapy. CONCLUSION In the absence of high-quality clinical evidence, the combined expert opinion used to develop these adaptions to the current ESC guidelines may help to guide clinicians in their treatment decisions when a PWHA presents with ACS.

Abstract
Aging hemophiliacs face cardiovascular disease. Lots of evidence has been gathered that hemophiliacs have a more unfavorable cardiovascular profile than the general population does, especially due to the increased prevalence of hypertension (HTN). Among the existing scattered evidence, our study provides the most comprehensive and systematized analysis of the determinants of HTN in hemophiliacs. We discussed the contribution to the HTN substrate of hemophilia-specific factors, such as type, severity and the presence of inhibitors. The complex mechanism of kidney dysfunction in relation to hematuria and viral infections was meticulously addressed. Furthermore, we highlighted the new pathogenic concepts of endothelial dysfunction and the association between HTN and hemophilic arthropathy. The clustering of cardiovascular risk factors is common in hemophiliacs, and it enhances the negative vascular effect of HTN and aggravates HTN. It usually leads to an increased risk for coronary and cerebrovascular events. Our work provides reliable evidence to guide and improve the management of HTN in hemophiliacs.

Abstract
Therapeutic advances have resulted in increased life expectancy in patients with hemophilia. Consequently, the prevalence of coronary artery disease in this population is increasing. Little is known about the optimal management of acute coronary syndrome in these patients. Current guidelines for the management of this condition are based mainly on expert opinion and generally recommend administration of the clotting factor prior to the anticoagulant, antiplatelet, and interventional therapies. We report a case that illustrates the potential harm that may come from this approach: evolution of non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome into ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome during the administration of recombinant clotting factor. We review available literature and describe the refined informatics-based guidelines for managing acute coronary syndrome in patients with hemophilia we developed in response to the presented clinical case. We propose adopting this novel informatics-based approach, which aids in the identification and early treatment of these patients, operationalizes timely involvement of hematology experts, and gathers data for further study.

Abstract
The development of effective and safe treatments has significantly increased the life expectancy of persons with haemophilia (PWH). This has been accompanied by an increase in the comorbidities of ageing including cardiovascular disease, which poses particular challenges due to the opposing risks of bleeding from haemophilia and antithrombotic treatments versus thrombosis. Although mortality secondary to coronary artery disease in PWH is less than in the general population, the rate of atherosclerosis appears similar. The prevalence of atrial fibrillation in PWH and risk of secondary thromboembolic stroke are not well established. PWH can be safely supported through acute coronary interventions but data on the safety and efficacy of long-term antithrombotics are scarce. Increased awareness and research on cardiovascular disease in PWH will be crucial to improve primary prevention, acute management, secondary prevention and to best support ageing PWH.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease in hemophiliacs has an increasing prevalence due to the aging of this population. Hemophiliacs are perceived as having a high bleeding risk due to the coagulation factor VIII/IX deficiency, but it is currently acknowledged that they also have an important ischemic risk. The treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) is particularly challenging since it usually requires anticoagulant treatment. The CHA2DS2-VASc score is used to estimate the risk of stroke and peripheral embolism, and along with the severity of hemophilia, guide the therapeutic strategy. Our work provides the most complete, structured, and updated analysis of the current therapeutic approach of AF in hemophiliacs, emphasizing that there is a growing interest in therapeutic strategies that allow for short-term anticoagulant therapy. Catheter ablation and left atrial appendage occlusion have proven to be efficient and safe procedures in hemophiliacs, if appropriate replacement therapy can be provided.

Left ventricular rotational abnormalities in hemophilia-insights from the three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiographic MAGYAR-Path Study. Quant Imaging Med Surg 2022; 12:886-893. [PMID: 35111591 PMCID: PMC8739137 DOI: 10.21037/qims-21-30] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemophilia is an X-linked inherited disorder primarily affecting males, its major types are type A (deficiency in factor VIII) and B (deficiency in factor IX), and is considered to be the most common severe congenital coagulation factor deficiency. The present study was designed to test whether any differences in left ventricular (LV) rotational mechanics could be demonstrated between male patients with hemophilia and healthy controls using three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (3DSTE)-derived virtual LV models. METHODS The present study consisted of 17 patients with hemophilia, however, 3 patients were excluded due to insufficient image quality. In the remaining patient population, 12 patients had hemophilia A and 2 patients had hemophilia B (mean age: 42.2±18.9 years, all males). The control group comprised 16 age-matched healthy subjects (46.0±5.9 years, all males). RESULTS None of the routine two-dimensional echocardiographic data differ between patients with hemophilia and controls. None of the patients and controls showed ≥ grade 1 valvular regurgitations and had valvular stenoses. In one subject, the near absence of LV twist called as LV "rigid body rotation" could be detected, data of which were managed separately. While 3DSTE-derived apical LV rotation was 3.65 degrees, basal LV rotation proved to be 3.57 degrees leading to 0.08-degree LV apico-basal gradient suggesting counterclockwise LV "rigid body rotation". In the remaining patients, both LV apical rotation (7.25±6.20 vs. 10.39±4.16 degrees, P<0.02) and LV twist (10.24±5.60 vs. 14.38±3.93 degrees, P<0.003) showed significant impairment in patients with hemophilia. CONCLUSIONS LV rotational abnormalities are present in hemophilia with reduced LV apical rotation and twist.

Haemophilia in France: Modelisation of the Clinical Pathway for Patients. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19020646. [PMID: 35055467 PMCID: PMC8775796 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19020646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 01/02/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Process-of-care studies participate in improving the efficiency of the care pathway for patient with haemophilia (CPPH) and rationalize the multidisciplinary management of patients. Our objective is to establish a current overview of the different actors involved in the management of patients with haemophilia and to provide an accurate description of the patient trajectory. This is a qualitative exploratory research based on interviews of the principal health professionals of four haemophilia services, between November 2019 and February 2020, in France. Mapping of the CPPH processes within the different institutions and/or services, as well as the rupture zones, were identified. Treatment delivery and biological analyses were carried out exclusively in healthcare institutions. The main liberal health professionals solicited were nurses, physiotherapists and general practitioner. Obstacles and barriers within the specialized service, with other hospital services and external hospital or private services, community health care providers et community environment and individual one was complex and multiples. Our research identified potential concerns that need to be addressed to improve future studies to identify influential elements. Similarly, other qualitative studies will have to be conducted on the perceptions and literacy of patients with haemophilia to develop a global interactive mapping of their trajectories.

Abstract
With improvements in medical care, the life expectancy of patients with bleeding disorders is approaching that of the general population. A growing population of older adult patients with bleeding disorders is at risk of age-related comorbidities and in need of various elective and emergent age-related procedures. The increased risk of thrombosis and volume overload in older adults complicates perioperative hemostatic management. Furthermore, antithrombotic treatment such as antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy, which is frequently required for various cardiovascular interventions, requires a meticulous individualized approach. Evidence-based guidelines for the management of aging patients with bleeding disorders are lacking, largely due to the underrepresentation of older adult patients in clinical trials as well as the rarity of many such bleeding disorders. We discuss the current guidelines and recommendations in the perioperative hemostatic management of older adult patients with hemophilia and von Willebrand disease as well as other rare bleeding disorders. The optimal management of these patients is often complex and requires a thorough multidisciplinary and individualized approach involving hematologists, surgeons, anesthesiologists, and the specialists treating the underlying disorder.

Abstract
PURPOSE Advanced targeted therapy has resulted in increasing life expectancy and incidence of age-related cardiovascular diseases like atrial fibrillation in patients with haemophilia. Oral anticoagulation constitutes a significant dilemma in this patient category as the risks of stroke and bleeding are difficult to balance. We sought to demonstrate the feasibility of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in patients with haemophilia and atrial fibrillation. METHODS All patients with haemophilia treated with LAAO at Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, were identified from a local prospective database comprising all consecutive LAAO procedures from 2010 up to November 2020. Based on review of the medical records, a retrospective descriptive analysis was performed. RESULTS Seven patients with haemophilia A and atrial fibrillation underwent LAAO after multidisciplinary conference. Peri-procedural coagulation management was guided by factor VIII activity and treated with repeated bolus administrations of recombinant factor VIII targeting an activity of 100%. The implantation was successful in all patients with only minor bleeding complications post-procedurally. Based on these experiences, a suggested regime has been formulated. CONCLUSIONS LAAO is feasible in haemophilia patients with concurrent atrial fibrillation. However, special care including intravenous substitution with coagulation factors must be given in the periprocedural management.

In vitro effects of emicizumab on activated clotting time in blood samples from cardiac surgical patients. Haemophilia 2021; 28:183-190. [PMID: 34735039 DOI: 10.1111/hae.14452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 10/15/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heparin management in hemophilia A (HA) patients with a factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor can be challenging due to severe activated clotting time (ACT) prolongations. It is important to better understand the impact of emicizumab, a FVIII mimetic on ACT, and tissue factor (TF)-based coagulation assays. METHODS Whole blood from 18 patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were mixed in vitro with pooled normal plasma, FVIII-deficient or FVIII-inhibitor plasma to affect functional FVIII levels. ACTs and heparin concentration by protamine titration were measured in whole blood mixture with/without emicizumab (50-100 μg/ml). Thrombin generation and plasmin generation were measured in the patient's plasma mixed with normal plasma or FVIII-inhibitor plasma to assess the impact of emicizumab under low TF activation. RESULTS FVIII inhibitors prolonged ACTs by 2.2-fold compared to those in normal plasma mixture at baseline. During CPB, ACTs in normal plasma mixture, and FVIII-deficient mixture were in 400s, but ACTs reached 900s in FVIII-inhibitor mixture. Emicizumab shortened ACTs by up to 100s in normal plasma mixture, and FVIII-deficient mixtures. ACTs remained over 600s in FVIII-inhibitor mixture, despite adding emicizumab at 100 μg/ml. Heparin concentration measured by TF-based protamine titration was unaffected. Emicizumab enhanced thrombin peak in the presence of FVIII inhibitors, whereas plasmin generation was mainly affected by thrombin generation, and systemic use of ɛ-aminocaproic acid. CONCLUSIONS FVIII inhibitors extensively prolong ACTs in heparinized whole blood, and clinical levels of emicizumab partially reverse ACT values. Protamine titration should be considered for optimal heparin monitoring in emicizumab-treated patients with FVIII inhibitors.

Abstract
Advances in the treatment of hemophilia have made the life expectancy of hemophiliacs similar to that of the general population. Physicians have begun to face age-related diseases not previously encountered in individuals with hemophilia. Treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is particularly challenging because the therapeutic strategies influence both the patient's thrombotic and hemorrhagic risk. As progress has been made in the treatment of AMI over the last decade, we performed an in-depth analysis of the available literature, highlighting the latest advances in the therapy of AMI in hemophiliacs. It is generally accepted that after the optimal substitution therapy has been provided, patients with hemophilia should be treated in the same way as those in the general population. New-generation stents that allow short dual antiplatelet therapy and potent P2Y12 receptor inhibitors have begun to be successfully used. At a time when specific recommendations and relevant data are scarce, our study provides up-to-date information to physicians involved in the treatment of AMI in hemophiliacs.

Abstract
In developed countries, the life expectancy of patients with hemophilia (PwH) is now close to that of the unaffected male population. This means that these patients are at risk of developing age-related comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease. Managing cardiovascular disease in PwH patients can be particularly challenging, due to their high bleeding risk. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a male patient with moderate hemophilia B and hypertensive ischemic heart disease complicated by arrhythmia due to nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, who was treated with apixaban and left atrial appendage closure while receiving concomitant anti-hemorrhagic prophylaxis with eftrenonacog alfa.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular events in patients with inherited bleeding disorders are challenging to manage. The risk of bleeding secondary to antithrombotic treatment must be balanced against the risk of thrombosis secondary to haemostatic therapy. METHODS Patients with inherited bleeding disorders with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or atrial fibrillation (AF) from a single centre (2010-2018) are included. RESULTS A total of 11 patients undergoing CABG (n = 3), PCI (n = 5) or with AF (n = 3) and a diagnosis of haemophilia A (n = 8), haemophilia B (n = 1), factor XI deficiency (n = 1) and von Willebrand disease (n = 1) managed by a multidisciplinary team are reported. In patients undergoing CABG, factor levels were normalized for 7-10 days with trough levels of 70-80% with severe patients continuing high-dose factor prophylaxis (trough 20-30%) three weeks post-operatively with daily aspirin. In a patient with mild haemophilia A and an inhibitor, recombinant factor VIIa dosing was monitored with thromboelastometry. For PCI, a 3rd-generation drug-eluting stent with one month of dual antiplatelet therapy in addition to high-dose prophylaxis as needed was preferred. Patients with AF and severe haemophilia did not receive antithrombotic treatment, and a thrombin generation assay was used to guide heparin dosing in mild haemophilia. CONCLUSION Our experience demonstrates the importance of interdisciplinary communication to identify strategies that decrease the risk of bleeding and thrombosis. The use of extended, increased intensity prophylaxis facilitated antiplatelet therapy. Global assays may help balance the intensity of haemostatic and antithrombotic treatment.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a major issue in aging patients with hemophilia (PWHs). Antithrombotic agents are widely used in the general population for CVD treatment, but this recommendation is not fully applicable to PWHs. To improve treatment strategies, a prospective case-control study (COCHE) that analyzed CVD management and follow-up (2 years/patient) in PWHs was performed in France from 2011 to 2018. In total, 68 PWHs (median age: 65 years [39-89]; 48 mild, 10 moderate, and 10 severe hemophilia) were included (n = 50 with acute coronary syndrome, n = 17 with atrial fibrillation, n = 1 with both). They were matched with 68 control PWHs without antithrombotic treatment. In our series, bleeding was significantly influenced by (1) hemophilia severity, with a mean annualized bleeding ratio significantly higher in COCHE patients than in controls with basal clotting factor level up to 20%, (2) antihemorrhagic regimen (on-demand vs. prophylaxis) in severe (hazard ratio [HR] = 16.69 [95% confidence interval, CI: 8.2-47.26]; p < 0.0001) and moderate hemophilia (HR = 42.43 [95% CI: 1.86-966.1]; p = 0.0028), (3) type of antithrombotic treatment in mild hemophilia, with a significantly higher risk of bleeding in COCHE patients than in controls for dual-pathway therapy (HR = 15.64 [95% CI: 1.57-115.8]; p = 0.019), anticoagulant drugs alone (HR = 9.91 [95% CI: 1.34-73.47]; p = 0.0248), dual antiplatelet therapy (HR = 5.31 [95% CI: 1.23-22.92]; p = 0.0252), and single antiplatelet therapy (HR = 3.76 [95% CI: 1.13-12.55]; p = 0.0313); and (4) HAS-BLED score ≥3 (odds ratio [OR] = 33 [95% CI: 1.43-761.2]; p = 0.0065). Gastrointestinal bleeding was also significantly higher in COCHE patients than in controls (OR = 15 [95% CI: 1.84-268]; p = 0.0141). The COCHE study confirmed that antithrombotic treatments in PWHs are associated with increased bleeding rates in function of hemophilia-specific factors and also of known factors in the general population.

Abstract
A 57-year-old man with mild haemophilia B was admitted for coronary artery bypass graft surgery. His factor IX (FIX) activity was 15% on admission. Our goal was to maintain his FIX activity at 80%-100% for post-op days (PODs) 0-3, and at 60%-80% for PODs 4-14. Preoperatively, the patient was given recombinant FIX (rFIX) bolus using the formula:Dosage needed=%(desired FIX level-current level of FIX)×weight (kg)×1.3.This increased his activity to 100%. One IU of rFIX increased FIX activity by 0.8%; the half-life of rFIX is 18-24 hours. The rFIX infusion was started intraoperatively and continued after surgery to maintain target FIX activity. He was discharged on POD 9 on rFIX bolus dosing of 5000 IU every 12 hours for an additional 5 days. Using continuous factor infusion, we managed to decrease the amount rFIX used by >60% while maintaining steady state FIX activity level.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the perioperative management of patients with hemophilia A (HA) who undergo cardiac surgery. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of the published literature. SETTING University hospital. PARTICIPANTS HA patients undergoing cardiac surgery. INTERVENTIONS The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, CNKI, VIP, and WANFANG databases were searched with the terms "hemophilia A," "cardiac surgery," "cardiopulmonary bypass," "coronary artery bypass graft," "valve disease," and "congenital heart disease" to identify relevant articles. Data regarding patient characteristics, perioperative management protocols, and clinical outcomes were extracted and analyzed. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Fifty articles, with 72 patients aging from 12 days to 80 years, were included. The analyzed population consisted of 36 (50%) mild HA, 10 (14%) moderate HA, and 25 (35%) severe HA patients. Factor VIII inhibitors were detected in 7 cases. Surgical procedures included 27 coronary artery bypass grafting procedures, 15 valve surgeries, 8 combined coronary artery bypass grafting with valve surgery procedures (1 with left ventricular assist device), 1 ventricular aneurysm resection with valve surgery, 11 corrections of congenital heart disease, 7 adult aortic surgeries, 3 heart transplantations, and 1 repair of heart injury. Factor VIII concentrates were used as a substitution therapy to ensure normalization of perioperative coagulation function. Although an uneventful clinical outcome was achieved in the majority of cases, 20% of patients developed complications with different severities. CONCLUSIONS Execution of a perioperative management strategy with a multidisciplinary approach, a thorough factor replacement protocol, and careful monitoring of factor levels facilitate an optimal outcome for HA patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Comparing Safety and Efficacy of Dabigatran and Factor Xa Inhibitors for Stroke Prevention in Hemophiliacs with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation. J Atr Fibrillation 2019; 12:2157. [PMID: 32435341 PMCID: PMC7237081 DOI: 10.4022/jafib.2157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2019] [Revised: 07/14/2019] [Accepted: 08/29/2019] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation, a progressively rising global health problem, is also rising in Hemophiliacs due to an increase in life expectancy in them. While treating Hemophiliacs with AF, deciding eligibility, choosing the anticoagulant based on risk-benefit ratio are tough decisions for physicians to make. This review paper aims to explore and compare existing studies, reviews and consensus papers to assess the safety of different Novel Oral Anticoagulants (NOACS) in this population. METHODS Thorough literature search was conducted on Pubmed using Atrial Fibrillation, Hemophilia A, Oral anticoagulants, stroke prevention, Dabigatran, factor Xa inhibitors as keywords separately and in combinations. Papers in English language only from the past 5 years were selected for review. After removing duplicate results, 80 papers were selected and after applying different exclusion criteria and according to relevance, 40 papers were finalized for review. RESULTS The keywords AF, Stroke prevention, oral anticoagulants, Hemophilia a, Factor Xa inhibitors and Dabigatran gave 24899, 13619, 8964, 3503, 2850, 2799 results, respectively. Combination keywords also showed some papers and out of short-listed 80 relevant papers 35 were finalized. Reviewing and analyzing these papers revealed no clinical trials in hemophiliacs with AF in the past 5 years and 5 clinical trials comparing NOACs with Warfarin in general population. Rest were systematic reviews, consensus papers and meta-analyses on management in this group. A few compared these drugs for AF in the general population but not specifically in Hemophiliacs and others. consensus papers developed suggestions for management and showed that NOACs are superior to Warfarin but need individual evaluation in Hemophiliacs with AF. CONCLUSIONS Patients with Hemophilia can also have thrombo-embolism despite their bleeding tendency and NOACs are a better option in them because of less need for monitoring, no food interactions and fewer drug interactions. This comparative review emphasized the need for more work to develop proper guidelines for thrombo-prophylaxis management in this specific group.

Abstract
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia and is a major cause of embolic stroke. In patients with hereditary bleeding disorders such as haemophilia, management of AF particularly anticoagulation can be quite challenging. Left atrial appendage (LAA) closure is an emerging option in AF patients who are not eligible for oral anticoagulation therapy because of contraindications or high bleeding risk. Case summary A 67-year-old man with permanent AF and haemophilia was referred for further evaluation of our cardiology clinic by his primary haematologist. The CHA2DS2-VASc score was estimated to be 3 and the HAS-BLED score was 3. Due to high risk of bleeding, we decided to perform percutaneous LAA closure instead of oral anticoagulation. Pre-procedural cardiac computerized tomography angiography and transoesophageal echocardiography were performed for measurements of LAA dimensions and exclude LAA thrombus. Percutaneous LAA occlusion was performed using a 28-mm AmplatzerTM AmuletTM device. The final result was excellent without significant residual leak, pericardial effusion, and embolic complication. Clopidogrel 75 mg/day and aspirin 81 mg/day for 1 month with adequate FVIII prophylaxis and then only aspirin 81 mg/day for 2 months were recommended. No antiplatelet was given after 3 months. The patient did not report any thrombotic or haemorrhagic adverse events and there were no complications related to implanted device after 1 year of follow-up. Discussion In patients with hereditary bleeding disorders such as haemophilia, management of AF particularly anticoagulation can be quite challenging. In this report, we present a case of percutaneous LAA occlusion using AmplatzerTM AmuletTM device in a patient who has haemophilia and permanent AF. LAA closure has the potential to be more cost effective as compared to oral anticoagulation therapy due to lesser necessity of clotting factor infusion.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report a case of acquired hemophilia secondary to levofloxacin and provide a guide for the use of anticoagulation in acute coronary syndrome. CASE SUMMARY A 75-year-old female treated with levofloxacin presented with spontaneous bruising of the upper extremities. Levofloxacin was discontinued and the symptoms resolved. Thereafter, the spontaneous bruising recurred and progressed over a few weeks. The patient was treated with recombinant factor VIIA with a time to recuperation of 3 months. The patient was subsequently found to have ST-segment elevation for which they received unfractionated heparin, ticagrelor, and aspirin prior to bare metal stent placement. CONCLUSION Hemophilia A is a rare disease associated with high morbidity and mortality. Case studies previously evaluating the association of levofloxacin with acquired hemophilia have shown causality. Initiating anticoagulation in patients with acquired hemophilia has long been a challenge to clinicians as evidence-based guidelines are lacking and bleeding risk may outweigh the benefit of anticoagulation. Furthermore, factor VIII deficiency does not provide additive protection against atherosclerotic plaque formation. This case report supports existing literature associating levofloxacin with acquired hemophilia. Due to the complication of life-threatening bleeds, familiarity with the treatment course following coronary events will allow patients with acquired hemophilia to be adequately and safely anticoagulated.

Abstract
Nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common age-related arrthymia and a leading cause of stroke in the elderly; with an aging hemophilia population, the number of patients developing AF is increasing. There are no controlled trials on thromboprophylaxis in this group of patients, only consensus opinion was based on small case reports. We present a female patient, carrier for hemophilia and with clinically moderately severe hemophilia who developed FA. We discuss the literature with respect to this group of patients and current recommendations for thromboprophylaxis.

Abstract
Patients with hemophilia A (Hem A) requiring cardiopulmonary bypass-supported cardiac surgery pose unique challenges for perioperative hemostatic management. This report describes a staged perioperative approach to clinical hematologic management as applied to an 80-year-old male of O-positive blood type with mild Hem A, who underwent successful, uncomplicated coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Hematologic management primarily consisted of normalization of plasma factor VIII levels followed by standard care. Conventional laboratory methods and point-of-care-testing methods such as thromboelastography and heparin management assays were combined to guide patient care. Minimal blood loss and minimal hemodilution techniques were also used to achieve favorable outcomes. The thorough preparation and execution of care by our multidisciplinary team from perfusion, pathology and laboratory medicine, cardiovascular surgery, transfusion services, nursing, and anesthesia, facilitated a safe, smooth, clinical course and an optimal outcome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The origins of cardiovascular disease (CVD) begin in childhood. The primary objective of this cross-sectional cohort study was to determine the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with congenital haemophilia A or B followed at Rady Children's Hospital San Diego Hemophilia and Thrombosis Treatment Center (HTC). We hypothesized that cardiovascular risk factors could be identified as part of a comprehensive clinic visit. MATERIALS AND METHODS Standardized measurement of weight, height, waist circumference and blood pressure plus non-fasting glucose and lipid panel were performed. Participants and/or caregivers completed questionnaires about family history, medical history and lifestyle. Clinical data were abstracted from the medical record. Descriptive statistics, Student's t test, correlation, Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were performed to analyse the data. RESULTS Forty-three males (mean 12 years, range 5-20 years) enrolled. High rates of overweight and obesity, (pre)hypertension and abnormal lipids were identified. Subjects with normal weight had more days of >60 minutes of physical activity compared with those with overweight or obesity (5.2 ± 2.4 vs. 3.8 ± 2.5 day; P = 0.07). Higher weight was correlated with higher factor consumption (cor = 0.88; P < 0.001). There was no difference in target joints based on weight category (30% in normal weight vs. 25% in overweight or obese, χ2 = 0.11, P = 0.74), which may be attributed to high rates of prophylaxis. CONCLUSIONS Modifiable risk factors for CVD were identified as part of the study during comprehensive clinic visits. The HTC team may develop behavioural interventions to target cardiovascular risk reduction as part of the comprehensive care model.

Abstract
RATIONALE Arterial injuries during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) though rare may occur. Hemophilia may further challenge the management of such injury. PATIENT CONCERNS A 48-year-old male patient with severe hemophilia type A and stiff knee arthropathy underwent bilateral TKAs. Left popliteal artery injury was detected at the end of the left TKA. DIAGNOSES Urgent angiography confirmed the diagnosis of the left popliteal artery transection. INTERVENTIONS With clotting factor VIII replacement treatment, open repair was performed by end-to-end vascular bypass with the autograft of the large saphenous vein. No anticoagulant and antiplatelet treatment was administered postoperatively. Doses of the factor VIII were decreased step by step postoperatively. OUTCOMES Left lower limb was reperfused 4 hours after the onset of the ischemia. The patient recovered uneventfully. Postoperative Doppler examination showed the left popliteal artery remained patent. LESSONS The hemophilia may endanger the patients to higher risk of arterial injury during TKA because of the severe deformity and fibrosis around knee joint. For the hemophilia patients, with rational coagulation factor replacement therapy, open repair with autograft was an effective revascularization procedure for artery injury.

Abstract
Platelets play pivotal roles in hemostasis as well as pathological arterial thrombosis. The combination of aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor has become the mainstay therapy in the ageing population with cardiovascular conditions, particularly during and after percutaneous coronary intervention. A number of novel P2Y12 inhibitors has become available in the recent years, and they markedly vary in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. Perioperative physicians today face a challenge of preventing hemorrhage due to platelet inhibitors, while minimizing thrombotic risks. There are several point-of-care platelet function tests available in the peri-procedural assessment of residual platelet aggregation. However, these platelet function tests are not standardized in terms of sample processing, agonist type and potency as well as methods of detecting platelet activity. Understanding the differences in pharmacological properties of antiplatelet agents, principles of platelet function tests, and pertinent hemostatic strategies may be useful to anesthesiologists and intensivists who manage perioperative issues associated with antiplatelet agents. The objectives of this review are: 1) to discuss clinical data on aspirin and P2Y12 inhibitors relating to perioperative bleeding, 2) to outline different features of point-of-care platelet function tests, and 3) to discuss therapeutic options for the prevention and treatment of bleeding associated with antiplatelet agents.
