Hemorrhagic complications in patients after hybrid interventions including percutaneous coronary intervention and carotid endarterectomy are analyzed. Demonstrate a new method of hemostasis and wound drainage after carotid endarterectomy. It was found that at the preoperative stage, the coagulogram parameters were within the normal range, but the aggregatogram showed hypoagregation for two of the four inducers in all 84 operated patients. After the completion of the second stage of revascularization, the absolute partial thrombosed time in all patients was five to six times higher than normal in the coagulogram parameters. According to the aggregatogram, there was a total hypo-aggregation. All acute hematomas after carotid endarterectomy requiring revision were formed in patients with the traditional method of hemostasis and wound drainage after carotid endarterectomy (p = 0.038), which was associated with more frequent damage to the cranial nerves (p = 0.0002). Thus, the combined endpoint, including the indicator of cranial nerve damage + acute hematoma in patients with the traditional method of hemostasis and wound drainage after carotid endarterectomy, significantly exceeded it in patients who used a new tactic (local hemostatics with minimal electrocoagulation and installation of two drains in the paravasal and clitoral space) (p 0.0001). There were no cases of wound complications in the area of carotid endarterectomy. Thus, the new technique of hemostasis and wound drainage after carotid endarterectomy against the background of hypocoagulation and hypoagregation has shown its effectiveness and preventive role in the prevention of hemorrhagic complications, damage to the cranial nerves.

Abstract Background Prevention of hemorrhagic complications has emerged as a priority in patients undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) in addition to suppressing thrombotic complications. This goal is challenging to achieve in diabetic Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients as Diabetes Mellitus (DM) itself is a prothrombotic state with more pronounced vascular injury response and have a worse outcome after PCI compared with non-diabetic patients. In patients with ACS, Bivalirudin has been shown to result in similar rates of composite ischemia as Heparin plus GPI (GP IIb /IIIa inhibitor), while significantly reducing major bleeding and has received class I recommendation for PCI by American College of Cardiology (ACC 2013). Whether Bivalirudin is safe and effective specially in diabetic ACS patients undergoing PCI, as compared with Heparin (UFH) monotherapy, is unknown. Purpose To determine and compare the incidence of in-hospital and 30-day hemorrhagic complications and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) as evidence of safety and efficacy using Bivalirudin versus Heparin in diabetic ACS patients undergoing PCI. Methods 218 diabetic ACS patients (age>18 years and ≤75 years) who underwent PCI from May 2018 to April 2019 at University Cardiac Centre, BSM Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh were randomly assigned to have UFH or Bivalirudin. Before the guide wire crossed the lesion, 111 patients in the UFH group received a bolus of 70–100 U/kg (targeted activated clotting time, ACT: 200–250 s). 107 patients in the Bivalirudin group received a loading dose of 0.75 mg/kg, followed by an infusion of 1.75 mg/kg/h for up to 4 hours. Dual antiplatelet (DAPT) loading as Aspirin 300 mg plus P2Y12 inhibitors (Clopidogrel 600 mg or Prasugrel 60 mg or Ticagrelor 180 mg) was given in all patients before the procedure. The maintenance dose of DAPT was continued for at least one month and patients were followed telephonically up to 30 days. The outcome measures were in-hospital and 30-day hemorrhagic complications and MACEs [death, MI, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stroke]. Results Patients treated with Bivalirudin compared with Heparin had a significantly lower in-hospital incidence of QMI (0% vs. 6%; p=0.03) and major bleeding (0% vs. 7%; p=0.02). However, the incidence of cardiac death, stent thrombosis, TVR were no differences between two groups (p>0.05). There was only one NQMI in the Bivalirudin group as opposed to 8% in the Heparin group in 30 days following stenting (p=0.04). Conclusion In diabetic ACS patients undergoing PCI, Bivalirudin is safe and effective as it reduces immediate and short-term hemorrhagic complications as well as MACEs as compared with Heparin.

Aim. To evaluate efficacy and safety of reduced dose of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) as part of triple antithrombotic therapy in AF patients, undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to identify factors, associated with this strategy. Materials and methods. The study is a cohort analysis of AF patients with AF, who successfully underwent elective PCI and assigned DOACs as part of triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT).Influence of a reduced DOACs dose as a part of TAT on the frequency of thecomposite efficacy endpoint (acute coronary syndrome, ischemic stroke, venous thromboembolic events, cardiovascular death and angina pectoris aggravation/need for unplanned PCI) and safety endpoint (hemorrhagic complications BARC types 2-5) were assessed using the Log-Rank criterion. Results. The study included 124 pts (69.4% women, mean aged 69±8.2 years). Themedian total score CHA2DS2-VASc was 5, the median of the Charlson index composed 7. Half (52%) of AF patients with high risk of thrombotic events after elective PCI received reduced-DOACs dose. Median follow up period was 11.0 month. 17 adverse thrombotic events were recorded during this period, BARC 2-5 bleedings occurred in 27 patients. Reduced DOACs doses in AF patients undergoing PCI were associated with significant increase of thrombotic events during follow up period compared to patients received full DOACs doses (0.79 vs 0.93, Log-Rank p=0.0292). Patients, who received full and reduced DOAC doses, were comparable in the frequency of BARC 2-5 bleedings (0.78 vs 0.75, Log-Rank p=0.06742). Conclusions. The administration of a reduced DOACs dose as a part of TAT in patients with AF, who underwent PCI, was associated with significant increase in the incidence of all thrombotic events, compared to patients, who received full dose of anticoagulants. The number of hemorrhagic complications was comparable.

Objective: To determine and compare the incidence of in-hospital and 30-day hemorrhagic complications and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) as evidence of safety and efficacy using Bivalirudin versus Heparin in diabetic acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a tertiary care cardiac hospital. Background: Prevention of hemorrhagic complications has emerged as a priority in patients undergoing PCI in addition to suppressing thrombotic complications. This goal is challenging to achieve in diabetic ACS patients as DM itself is a prothrombotic state with more pronounced vascular injury response and have a worse outcome after PCI compared with non-diabetic patients. In patients with ACS, Bivalirudin has been shown to result in similar rates of composite ischemia as Heparin plus GPI (GP IIb /IIIa inhibitor), while significantly reducing major bleeding and has received class I recommendation for PCI. Whether Bivalirudin is safe and effective in diabetic ACS patients undergoing PCI, as compared with Heparin (UFH) monotherapy, is unknown. Methods: 218 diabetic ACS patients (age>18 years and ≤ 75 years) who underwent PCI from May 2018 to April 2019 at UCC, BSMMU, Dhaka, Bangladesh were randomly assigned to have UFH or Bivalirudin. Before the guide wire crossed the lesion, 111 patients in the UFH group received a bolus of 70-100 U/kg (targeted activated clotting time, ACT: 200-250 s). 107 patients in the Bivalirudin group received a loading dose of 0.75 mg/kg, followed by an infusion of 1.75 mg/kg/h for up to 4 hours. Dual antiplatelet (DAPT) loading as Aspirin 300 mg plus P2Y12 inhibitors (Clopidogrel 600 mg or Prasugrel 60 mg or Ticagrelor 180 mg) was given in all patients before the procedure. The maintenance dose of DAPT was continued for at least one month and patients were followed telephonically up to 30 days. The outcome measures were in-hospital and 30-day hemorrhagic complications and MACEs [death, MI, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stroke].

There was only one NQMI in the Bivalirudin group as opposed to 8% in the Heparin group in 30 days following stenting (p=0.04). No other adverse effects were found significantly different between groups in 30 days of PCI. Conclusion: In this small scale, prospective, randomized controlled study of diabetic ACS patients undergoing PCI in a single center showed that Bivalirudin is safe and effective as it reduces immediate and short-term hemorrhagic complications as well as MACEs as compared with Heparin.

Abstract. Background: Insufficient evidence exists to support the safety of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) following intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for acute ischaemic stroke. Our study aimed to report a single-centre experience of patients treated over a five-year period. Patients and methods: Departmental computerised databases were interrogated to identify patients who suffered an ischaemic stroke and subsequently underwent thrombolysis followed by CEA. Mortality and stroke within 30 days of surgery were defined as the primary outcome end points. Results: Over a five-year period, 177 out of a total of 679 carotid endarterectomies (26 %) were performed in patients presenting with acute ischaemic stroke. Twenty-five patients (14 %) received IVT prior to CEA in the form of alteplase. Sixty percent of patients were male with a mean age of 68 years. Sixteen patients (64 %) underwent CEA within 14 days of IVT and the median interval between thrombolysis and CEA was 7.5 days (range, 3–50 days). One female patient died of a further intraoperative stroke within 30 days of surgery, yielding a mortality rate of 4 %. Two patients (8 %) suffered from cardiac complications postoperatively resulting in a short high dependency unit stay. Another two patients (8 %) developed local wound complications, which were managed conservatively without the need for re-operation. The median hospital length of stay was 4.5 days (range, 1–33 days). Conclusions: Our experience indicates that CEA post-thrombolysis has a low incidence of mortality. Further high quality evidence is required before CEA can be routinely recommended following IVT for acute ischaemic stroke.
