Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a rare systemic autoimmune disorder that can escalate into a 'thrombotic storm' called the catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS), frequently requiring ICU admission for multiple organ failure. This review aims to offer insight and recent evidence on critically-ill APS patients. RECENT FINDINGS The CAPS classification criteria define this condition as the involvement of at least three organs/systems/tissues within less than a week, caused by small vessel thrombosis, in patients with elevated antiphospholipid antibodies levels. These criteria do not encompass the full spectrum of critically-ill thrombotic APS patients and they need to be cautiously used for the bedside diagnosis of CAPS. Thrombocytopenia is the laboratory hallmark of CAPS, sometimes dropping below 20G/L, but a complete thrombotic microangiopathy pattern is infrequent. Anticoagulation is the pivotal treatment for APS and CAPS, associated with improved outcome. Triple therapy - the combination of anticoagulation, high-dose corticosteroids, and either plasma exchange or intravenous immunoglobulins - remains the standard treatment for CAPS patients. Eculizumab, an anti-C5 monoclonal antibody, may be useful in refractory patients. Despite significant progress, CAPS mortality rate remains high. Its diagnosis and management are complex, requiring a close multidisciplinary cross talk between APS specialists and intensivists.

Risk Factors in Hospitalized Patients for Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia by Real World Database: A New Role for Primary Hypercoagulable States. J Hematol 2021; 10:171-177. [PMID: 34527113 PMCID: PMC8425805 DOI: 10.14740/jh876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2021] [Accepted: 07/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The aims of the study were to identify predictors of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) in hospitalized adults, and to find additional factors associated with higher odds of HIT in primary hypercoagulable states. Methods A retrospective matched case-control study using discharge data from National Inpatient Sample database (2012 - 2014) was conducted. In primary outcome analysis, hospitalized patients with and without HIT were included as cases and controls, both matched for age and gender. In secondary outcome analysis, hospitalized patients with primary hypercoagulable states with and without HIT were included as cases and controls, both matched for age and gender. The statistical analyses were performed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 25. Results There are several predictors of HIT in hospitalized patients, such as obesity, malignancy, diabetes, renal failure, major surgery, congestive heart failure, and autoimmune diseases. In patients with primary hypercoagulable states, the presence of renal failure (odds ratio (OR) 2.955, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.994 - 4.380), major surgery (OR 1.735, 95% CI 1.275 - 2.361), congestive heart failure (OR 4.497, 95% CI 2.466 - 8.202), or autoimmune diseases (OR 1.712, 95% CI 1.120 - 2.618) further increases the odds of HIT. Conclusions In hospitalized patients with primary hypercoagulable states, especially in association with renal failure, major surgery, congestive heart failure, or autoimmune diseases, unfractionated heparin should be used with caution.
