The Effect of Cardiopulmonary Bypass on Dabigatran Levels
DABIGATRAN IS a novel anticoagulant that is licensed for use for the prevention of stroke in the presence of atrial fibrillation. Its use has expanded rapidly in New Zealand, primarily due to there being no requirement for routine monitoring of its effect, as there is for warfarin. There are case reports in the literature describing management of patients coming for urgent cardiac surgery, which revolve mainly around the use of dialysis and massive transfusion of clotting factors to manage the bleeding associated with surgery.
