6. Activated Protein C Resistance
• Inheritated abnormality known as factor V Leiden
• involves a point mutation (adenine for guanine) that
results in the substitution of glutamine for arginine at
position 506 on factor V
• activated protein-C becomes resistant to degradation
• the heterozygous state (5% of Caucasians) carries a 3 to
5 fold increased risk for VTE
• Factor V Leiden can be identified in 20% of patients with
one episode and 50% of those with recurrent VTE

8. Prevention
• Anticoagulation and other antithrombotics form the
basis for prophylaxis
• Drugs are continued for 5-7 d for high-risk; 7-10 d
for orthopedic procedure on the lower extremity
• No prophylactic technique is completely effective

prophylactic device for pulmonary embolism
• patient with proximal DVT
– who cannot receive anticoagulants
– who has failed anticoagulants

• patient undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy for
chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
• filters appear to prevent PE within the following 2
wks but did not affect short or long-term mortality
10..Dec.2016
10. Diagnosis
• Of patients with suspected DVT, only one in four will
prove to have DVT
• Differential diagnosis:
– cellulitis, heart failure with edema, ruptured Baker’s cyst,
chronic venous insufficiency
• Diagnostic tests:
– ultrasound with manual compression
– contrast venography
– fibrin degradation product D-dimer

14. Natural History of DVT
• Untreated proximal DVT
– clinical PE occurs in 1/3 to 1/2 of patients
– sub-clinical PE occurs in another 1/3
– untreated PE tends to recur in days to weeks
• Post-phlebitic syndrome (10-30% of DVT)
– pain, edema, skin discoloration, and ulceration
associated with chronic venous insufficiency
10..Dec.2016 14
15. Pulmonary Embolism
Three major clinical presentations:
1. dyspnea with or without pleuritic chest pain and
hemoptysis
2. hemodynamic instability and syncope (usually
associated with massive pulmonary embolism)
3. mimicking indolent pneumonia or heart failure,
especially in the elderly
10..Dec.2016 15
16. Common symptoms of Acute PE
• PIOPED study found
– Dyspnea
– Pleuritic chest pain
– Tachypnea (resp rate ≥ 20 / min)
in 97% of patients with angiographic proven PE
• The absence of this triad reduces the clinical
probability of PE
10..Dec.2016 16
17. Estimating Clinical Probability of
Pulmonary Embolism
High Risk factor present
(80-100% probable) Otherwise unexplained dyspnea, tachypnea, or pleuritic
chest pain
Otherwise unexplained radiographic or gas exchange
abnormality
Intermediate Neither high nor low clinical probability
(20-79% probable)
Low Risk factor not present
(1-19% probable) Dyspnea, tachypnea, or pleuritic pain possibly present
but unexplained by another condition

20. CTPH
Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
• Result of recurrent or unresolved PE
• Occurs in 1% of patients with PE
• Sx: increasing dyspnea, exertion → constant
• Diagnosis:
– diagnosis should be considered in any one with
unexplained dyspnea on exercise
– V/Q scan shows multiple large defects
10..Dec.2016 20
21. Outcomes
10.Dec.2016 21
Close to 30% of patients who have an acute DVT develop the PTS by year
8 following their initial episode. Most develop signs and symptoms of this
condition within 2 years of their acute event, and nearly 25% develop a
chronic venous stasis ulcer.
Of the approximately 300, 000 Americans who have a fatal PE each year,
as many as 15% to 25% present with sudden death or die within 30 days
of their diagnosis.The majority of patients die because of a failure in
diagnosis rather than inadequate therapy.
In fact, the mortality rate for PE without treatment is approximately 30%,
whereas it is only 2 to 8% with adequate therapy. In addition, nearly 4% of
all PE patients develop CTPH by the second year following their event.

Factor Xa Inhibitors
Fondaparinux is an indirect factor Xa inhibitor that can be used as VTE
prophylaxis in medical patients, those undergoing orthopedic procedures (total hip
and knee arthroplasty), and those undergoing abdominal surgery. It is also
approved as treatment for acute DVT and PE when used in combination with a
VKA. Its efficacy and safety in comparison to LMWH for the treatment of acute
DVT and in comparison with IV UFH for the treatment of PE has been shown in
large randomized, controlled trials.
Fondaparinux is administered as a once-daily subcutaneous injection of 2.5 mg for
DVT prophylaxis and 5 mg, 7.5 mg, or 10 mg based on body weight (<50 kg, 50-
100 kg, >100 kg, respectively) for the treatment of DVT or PE. Fondaparinux is
contraindicated in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance
<30 mL/min) and bacterial endocarditis
25. Warfarin
Advantages
Efficacious
Oral administration
Appropriate for long-term
outpatient use
Disadvantages
Requires frequent monitoring
and dose adjustments
Slow to achieve full therapeutic effect
(~5 days)
Numerous drug interactions
Dietary precautions
Inter/intrapatient variability
26. Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC)
Advantages
Effective for
DVT prophylaxis only
No increased risk of hemorrhage
May be combined with
pharmacologic agents
Disadvantages
Not well studied
Poor patient tolerability
— Poor compliance = poor efficacy
Difficult for staff use
Not convenient for outpatient
or long-term use
Poor compliance
27. Graduated Elastic Compression Stockings (ECS)
Advantages
Reduces distal DVT
No increased risk of
hemmorhage
May be combined with
pharmacologic agents
Disadvantages
No data on proximal DVT, PE
15% to 20% of patients cannot wear
them
Appropriate for adjunctive therapy
only
Poor compliance
28. Treatment
• iv heparin until the diagnosis is ruled out
• heparin - UFH or LMWH
• warfarin / coumarin derivatives
• adjunctive recommendations:
– bed rest until heparin is therapeutic
– elastic stockings until patient becomes
ambulatory (↓ post-thrombotic syndrome)

31. Case No.1
• 28 yo man. MVA. Acute spinal cord injury
and multiple trauma victim.
– Risk of DVT
– what to do?
32. ASCI and Trauma
• Major trauma DVT rate is >50% (10-20%
proximal)
• 67-100% if acute SCI involved
• fatal PE up to 2%
• 3rd leading cause of death if pt survives
the first 24 hours
34. ASCI and Trauma
• How long to Rx?
– The trauma studies used 14 days of Rx
– ASCI is different
• Chen et al. 1649 pts at 18 Rehab Units. 10%
developed DVT and 3% developed PE at Rehab
• Yelnik et al. 14% developed new DVT on venogram
within one month of starting rehab
35. ASCI and Trauma
• Bottom line:
– for trauma use LMWH
– studies used enoxaparin 30 bid for 14 days
36. Case No.2
• 62 yo man, post hemicolectomy for colon
CA. Previously well. No meds. No fam hx.
• What to do?
37. General Surgery Prophylaxis
• Pooled data for significant general
surgery suggests VTE rate is 19-25%
• 29% if pt has cancer
• most asympt below knee clots
• prox DVT 7%
• PE 1.6%
• fatal PE 0.9%
38. General Surgery Prophylaxis
• With UFH total DVT drops to 8%
• one meta-analysis suggests 5000 q8h
better than q12h
• little data compares UFH to LMWH
• likely equally effective
• maybe less bleeding with LMWH
39. General Surgery Prophylaxis
• What about extended Rx?
– NEJM March 28, 2002
– LMWH continued for 21 days after general
cancer surgery (compared to placebo at
home)
– all VTE 12% to 4.8%
– prox DVT 1.8% to 0.6%
– almost no symptomatic events occurred in
either group
40. Back to the case
• Basically for general surgery use LMWH
or UFH while immobile and while in
hospital
• Use q8h preferably
• if cancer related then consider extending
out Rx especially if very high risk and
ongoing immobility
41. CONCLUSIONS
• Use combo of clinical models, d-dimer,
and imaging to dx VTE
• be aggressive with DVT prophylaxis
– it is generally under-utilized
Core
Low–molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) are rapidly growing in popularity across a number of indications. The greatest growth for these products has come in orthopedic surgery. This popularity stems from the superior efficacy vs standard of therapy, and their ease of use
Unlike warfarin, LMWHs have a fixed dosing regimen that requires no monitoring or dose adjustment (except in high-risk patients, eg, those with renal insufficiency). This makes LMWHs easier for hospital staff and more appropriate for longer-term outpatient use
These advantages are accompanied by some corresponding disadvantages that should be noted
—The subcutaneous (sc) injections required may be difficult for patient home-use settings
—Unlike UFH, LMWHs are not fully reversible
—Additionally, the efficacy of LMWHs may be difficult to assess in
extremes of weight, in both obese and under weight patients
—LMWHs may be difficult to dose in patients with renal insufficiency
Core
DVT prophylaxis with warfarin, as well as outpatient treatment of DVT, has become routine practice in the United States
This widespread use is based on several factors including efficacy and, equally important, ease of use (oral)
However, patient response to warfarin anticoagulation depends on many factors including diet, alcohol consumption, age, and gastrointestinal and liver disease, all of which contribute to unpredictability of the antithrombotic response
The unpredictability of the response to warfarin also applies to prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR) results, necessitating repeated monitoring
This varied clinical response and the need for monitoring add cost and staff considerations that need to be figured in when evaluating the overall position of this product in thrombosis management
Core
Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) is used as adjunctive therapy in many indications. However, based on a dearth of stand-alone data, IPC should not be relied on as the sole form of DVT prophylaxis
As nonpharmacologic therapy, its key advantage is that it does not increase the risk of hemorrhage
However, this is balanced by a number of key drawbacks mostly related to the cumbersome nature of the regimen. Specifically, most hospital staff, unless specifically set up for IPC, find it difficult to use and maintain. Additionally, because of its restrictive (and uncomfortable) nature, many patients often resist its use
This combination of poor patient and staff tolerability should serve as a caution—no therapy is effective unless it’s used!
Core
As with IPC, graduated elastic compression stockings (ECS) are often used as adjunctive therapy in many indications. ECS should not form the basis of DVT prophylaxis
As nonpharmacologic therapy, their key advantage is that they do not increase the risk of hemorrhage
Disadvantages of ECS are a lack of data supporting their use in proximal DVT or PE, that 15% to 20% of patients cannot wear them, and that they are appropriate for adjunctive therapy only
Many patients simply do not wear them
