11

12
Arterial Thrombosis
13
Hypercoagulable States Definition
Clinical situation wherein patients suffer from recurrent venous and/or arterial thrombotic problems or are predisposed to such problems
14
Hypercoagulable States Fine Balance in Hemostatic system
"pro" hemostatic system (procoagulant) "anti" hemostatic system (anticoagulant) perturbations in either system can predispose to clotting or bleeding
15
Hypercoagulable States Acquired Hemostatic Abnormalities
Lupus anticoagulant Nephrotic syndrome DIC Prior thrombosis Immobilization Malignancy TTP Heparin induced thrombocytopenia Myeloproliferative disorders Estrogens Prolonged travel
16
What patients with a thrombosis should you suspect as having a hereditary hypercoagulable state ?
17
Possible Hereditary Defects predisposing to Venous Thrombosis
DVT < age 45 Positive family history Recur without precipitating factors Occurs at atypical site Idiopathic
18
Incidence of Hereditary Coagulation Defects
19
“Hypercoagulable work-up”
Factor V Leiden mutation Genetic test for prothrombin gene mutation Functional assay of antithrombin III Functional assay of protein C Protein S assay Tests for antiphopholipid syndrome
20
Activated protein C Resistance
MOST COMMON ETIOLOGY of hereditary venous thrombosis Variation among different populations 5% European or Caucasian population Rare in African Americans, native American Indians, Asians First described in 1994 Factor V Leiden mutation
21
Protein C, Protein S, Antithrombin III
Cascade Intrinsic Pathway Extrinsic Pathway IX TF Pathway Tissue Factor + VII Contact X XI TF-VIIa PL Common Pathway XIIa HKa Prothrombin XIa PL (Tenase) IXa VIIIa PL Xa XIII Va (Prothrombinase) Thrombin Protein C, Protein S, Antithrombin III XIIIa Fibrinogen Fibrin (weak) Fibrin (strong)
23
Factor V Leiden Characteristics
15-20% of patients with venous thromboembolism Recurrent thrombosis, familial thrombosis, thrombosis assoc. with pregnancy or young patients
24
Factor V Leiden heterozygous
First Episode of DVT Relative Risk Incidence/yr (%) Normal 1 0.008 Oral contraceptives 4 0.03 Factor V Leiden heterozygous 7 0.06 FVL + OCP 35 0.3 Factor V Leiden homozygous 80
25
Protein C/S and ATIII Deficiency
All much higher risk of thrombosis Young age multiple VTE Usually life long anticoagulation
26
Protein C, Protein S, Antithrombin III
Cascade Intrinsic Pathway Extrinsic Pathway IX TF Pathway Tissue Factor + VII Contact X XI TF-VIIa PL Common Pathway XIIa HKa Prothrombin XIa PL (Tenase) IXa VIIIa PL Xa XIII Va (Prothrombinase) Thrombin Protein C, Protein S, Antithrombin III XIIIa Fibrinogen Fibrin (weak) Fibrin (strong)
27
Prothrombin gene mutation
First described in 1996 Mutation G20210A (guanine to adenine) Increased thrombosis Increased prothrombin levels 2.8 fold increased risk of thrombosis 0.02%/year risk of thrombosis
28
Protein C, Protein S, Antithrombin III

29
CASE 45 yr old F with acute pain in right foot.
Rash located on arms and legs. History of recurrent fetal loss.
30
Arterial Thrombosis Evaluation
Lupus anticoagulant Anticardiolipin antibody Homocysteine levels
31
Antiphospholipid syndrome
A clinical diagnosis characterized by arterial and venous thrombosis and recurrent fetal loss Persistent lupus anticoagulant or anticardiolipin antibodies Thrombocytopenia and livedo reticularis
32
Lupus Anticoagulant Tests
Dilute Russell Viper Venom Time (dRVVT) Elevated PTT Anticardiolipin antibody
33
CASE 80 yr old F with DVT. No previous hx of DVT/PE
Not feeling well recently. Lost 15 pounds in 2 months but, increased abdominal girth.
35
Venous thrombosis in cancer
Common (20%) of all patients with cancer Increased risk of recurrent VTE Increased risk bleeding with anticoagulation
36
DVT and Cancer Current evidence does not support extensive search for occult malignancy Pursue signs/symptoms Appropriate screening cancer tests
37
Cancer Screening CBC Chemistry panel Stool for occult blood/colonscopy
PSA and digital rectal exam Mammogram Pelvic examination Urinalysis
38
Now you’ve diagnosed – how do you treat?
39
Therapy of DVT/PE Heparin Warfarin Thrombin inhibtors
Unfractionated (IV) Low molecular weight (SQ) Fondaparinux (SQ) Warfarin Thrombin inhibtors Oral Factor Xa inhibitors Rivaroxaban Apixaban
40
LMWH Mainly Anti-Xa activity with some antithrombin activity
Long duration of action More consistent therapeutic window Not reversible with protamine Included: Enoxaparin (Lovenox) Dalteparin (Fragmin) Tinzaparin (Innohep) Fondaparinux (Arixtra) – only anti-Xa activity
41
Coumadin
42
Warfarin—Mechanism of Action
Vitamin K II Vitamin K Utilization Reduced VII IX X Warfarin
43
Effect of warfarin on clotting factors
44
Kaplan-Meier Estimates of the Probability of Symptomatic Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism among Patients with Cancer Lee, A. et al. N Engl J Med 2003;349:
45
Warfarin—Contraindications
Risk of hemorrhage is greater than benefits of therapy Pregnancy Hemorrhagic tendencies or blood dyscrasias Traumatic surgery with large open areas, recent or contemplated surgery of CNS or eye Bleeding tendencies with active ulceration or overt bleeding Lack of patient cooperation Spinal puncture and procedures with potential for uncontrollable bleeding
46
Long time coming….
47
Thrombin inhibitor Dabigatran (Pradaxa)
Thrombin is key step in thrombosis Turns fibrinogen into clot Activates platelets Activates clotting factors
48
DVT treatment NEJM: 361: , 2009
49
Bleeding
50
Oral Factor Xa inhibitors
Rivaroxaban (Xarelto) Apixaba (Eliquis)
51
DVT treatment
52
Bleeding
53
Duration of Therapy First event with reversible or time limited risk factor 3-6 months Unprovoked VTE At least 6 months Special situations – life long Cancer – until resolved Antithrombin III, multiple genetic defects, antiphopholipid syndrome
54
Accept risk of recurrent disease
6 Months Coumadin INR = Continue
55
Recurrent Venous Thrombosis
Incidence of DVT (%) Years
56
D-dimer and Recurrent VTE (PREVENT)
Patients with 1 prior VTE Patients with >1 prior VTE
57
Oral Direct Xa Inhibitor
Xarelto (Rivaroxaban) Oral agent Do not need to check INR Can not be reversed
