ASA/OAC in Stable Vascular Disease:
What do we know?
• ASA decreases the risk of mortality and CV
events in CAD patients
• Warfarin is also effective in decreasing CV
events and mortality in CAD patients1,2,3
Similar effect on mortality
Superior prevention of MI and stroke vs ASA
More bleeding
• Adding ASA to OAC increases major bleeding

• Thrombosis Canada: DOACs in Obese Patients – Guide
“data on the clinical efficacy and safety of DOACs in obese patients are limited. NO randomized controlled trials have examined the safety and efficacy of DOACs only in obese patients. Overall, <20% of patients in DOAC trials weighted >90-100kg…”
“if DOACs are to be used in patients with a BMI>40 or >120 kg, this should be as a last resort (ie. When vitamin K antagonists cannot be used) and patients should be informed of the limitations of the available information and potential risk of underdosing”
• 2018 European Practical Guide1: “because of limited data in extreme obesity, the use of VKA in patients with
a BMI> 40 kg/m2 or weight > 120 kg should be considered… in rare cases when a NOAC is needed in such circumstances, specific measurements of drug trough levels should be considered… under the guidance of a hematologist…”

• ICDs: 407
• Electrophysiological Studies 811 (combined for

Highest combined volume in the province
• Ablations 342 (SVT and flutter 80-100)
• Ablation with Advanced Mapping 400 (300 AF
and 100 VT approximate breakdown)
• PPM 1002
Why Catheter Ablation
• Catheter ablation can improve the quality of life in AF patients
CCC guidelines recognize it as a first line modality for highly
symptomatic patients; for the majority of patients a trial of
antiarrhythmic medications is still first line
Positive preliminary data in patients in HF
• Reduction in all-cause mortality (8.1% vs 15.9%; RR, 0.52; 95% CI,
0.35-0.76; P < 0.01)
• Reduction in HF hospitalization (17.7% vs 31.3%; RR, 0.57; 95%
CI, 0.45-0.72; P < 0.01) and improvement in ejection fraction,
compared with medical therapy
• Small data set under 300 patients larger trial on going, currently a
second line modality for symptomatic patients

Periprocedural Anticoagulation
• North American and ESC guidelines 3 weeks of systemic therapeutic anticoagulation prior to
ablation procedure
• TEE maybe used to exclude the presence of LA thrombus allowing for the procedure to be per-formed within a shorter timeframe OR confirming the absence of left atrial clot inpatients taking DOAC therapy as adherence can-not be readily verified
• ACT above 300 periprocedurally
• Anticoagulation 2-3 months post procedure with continuation based on CHA2DS2VASC score not procedure success

To Bridge or NOT to Bridge • AHA/ACC/ Heart Rhythm Society and ESC guidance
documents recommended continuation of OAC instead
of bridging since 2014.
• AF ablations are classified as low bleeding risk
• What about uninterrupted DOACs vs uninterrupted
VKA?

patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. J Am Coll Cardiol 2017;69:871-98.
Periprocedural anticoagulation
• Lack of RCT data comparing interrupted vs bridged warfarin dosing
• Cohort studies supporting the use of uninterrupted warfarin – standard of care prior to NOACs
• Short half-life of NOACs ideally suited to a short interruption prior to the procedure with the greatest reported risk of life threatening bleeding historically related to transseptal puncture and non-reversible nature of the NOACs
• No data comparing interrupted vs non-interrupted NOACs
• Data comparing uninterrupted NOACs with uninterrupted warfarin
5/1/2019

VKA vs NOACs
• Meta-analysis of studies where neither NOAC,
nor VKA were interrupted for even 1 dose and
relevant outcomes were reported.
• In patients treated with rivaroxaban, patients
received last dose the night before the
procedure
• 80% of the dabigatran-treated patients received
their last dose < 8h prior to the procedure and
41% received it within 4h of the procedure
Cardoso et al. Heart Rhythm 2018;15:107–115
The incidence of ischemic stroke or TIA was low (NOAC, 0.08%; VKA, 0.16%)
and not significantly different between groups
(OR 0.66; 95% CI 0.19–2.30; P 5 .51; I 2 5 0%)
Three studies evaluated the incidence of silent cerebral embolic events
MRI and reported a similar incidence between NOACs (8%) and VKAs
(9.6%) (OR 0.86; 95% CI 0.42–1.76; P 5 .68; I 2 5 0%)
Only 1 death was reported in all studies.
Major bleeding was significantly lower in the uninterrupted NOAC group (20/2120

Combination Antithrombotic Therapy in AF + PCI
• Bleeding rates are significantly increased with triple antithrombotic therapy
• Various combinations of DOAC + single antiplatelet therapy (ie. clopidogrel) have been evaluated
• There has been a consistently lower risk of bleeding and similar efficacy with the dual therapy approach compared to the triple therapy approach.
• REDUAL PCI (dabigatran)
• PIONEER AF (rivaroxaban)
• AUGUSTUS (apixaban)

Where Are We Now?
• Significant reduction in bleeding with dual therapy DOAC-containing regimens
There is a growing shift towards using DOACs + SAPT
• No apparent downside but some limitations…
• Underpowered for stroke and ischemic events
• Included very few patients at high embolic or ischemic risk ie. very high risk of stroke, less than < 50% had ACS
• Heterogeneity amongst trials
• Questions going forward ….
Patients with high ischemic burden (i.e. ACS) may still require triple therapy
Which combination of antithrombotics do you choose?
