DOACs in Extremes of Weight
A 56 year old obese man, BMI 42, weight 155 kg presents with bilateral lower extremity swelling. D-Dimer is elevated prompting bilateral lower extremity ultrasound. Ultrasound shows a DVT in LEFT common femoral, superficial femoral and popliteal vein. He is deemed appropriate for outpatient management of this VTE. What anticoagulant regimen do you recommend?1. Rivaroxaban 15 mg BID x21 days then 20 mg daily2. Apixaban 10 mg BID x 7 days then 5 mg BID3. Enoxaparin bridging to warfarin4. Admission for IV heparin bridging to warfarin5.

Superficial Vein Thrombosis –CHEST Guidelines
� Factors that favor the use of AC : extensive SVT; above the knee, close to saphenofemoral junction; severe symptoms; involvement of the greater saphenous vein; history of VTE or SVT; active cancer; recent surgery
� In patients with superficial vein thrombosis of the lower limb of at least 5 cm in length, we suggest the use of a prophylactic dose of fondaparinux or LMWH for 45 days over no anticoagulation (Grade 2B).

Avoid Heparin Protocol
� Systematic replacement of most IV and SQ UFH with SQ LMWH in prophylactic or therapeutic doses (remaining uses of UFH were for hemodialysis, intraoperative use for cardiovascular surgery, ACS)
� Replacement of heparinized saline in arterial and central venous lines with saline flushes
� Modification of order sets to exclude UFH options� Removal of UFH stores from most nursing units.

Periprocedural Management of DOACs
A 62 year old man with DM, CAD and aflutter is on dabigatran for stroke prevention. He is to undergo ablation procedure next month. He asks if he will need to stop his dabigatran prior to his procedure. What do you tell him?1) Yes-hold 2 doses prior to the procedure2) No-you don’t have to stop it, just cross your fingers
that it all goes ok.

Take Home Points
� Low dose rivaroxaban is an option for secondary prevention of VTE
� If decision is made to restart anticoagulation after GIB in patients on warfarin for AFIB, reinitiate warfarin on day 7-14
� Consider withholding anticoagulation and opting for follow up U/S in low risk calf vein thrombosis
� 6 weeks of low dose rivaroxaban is an option for treatment of SVT-consider longer duration if high risk
� Uninterrupted dabigatran appears safe in patients undergoing ablation
