  4. INTERPRETATION OF RECOMMENDATIONS

  5. INTERPRETATION OF RECOMMENDATIONS

  6. VTE PROPHYLAXIS

  7. Prevention of VTE in Nonsurgical Patients

  8. Hospitalized Acutely Ill Medical Patients • Increased risk of thrombosis, recommend anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis with low molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), low-dose unfractionated heparin (LDUH) bid, LDUH tid, or fondaparinux (Grade 1B) • Low risk of thrombosis, we recommend against the use of pharmacologic prophylaxis or mechanical prophylaxis (Grade 1B) • Patients who are bleeding or at high risk of bleeding, we recommend against anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis (Grade 1B)

  9. Hospitalized Acutely Ill Medical Patients • Patients at increased risk of thrombosis who are bleeding or at high risk for major bleeding • Optimal use of mechanical thromboprophylaxis with graduated compression stockings (GCS) (Grade 2C) • intermittent pneumatic compressions (IPC) (grade 2C) • When bleeding risk decreases, and if VTE risk persists • pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis be substituted for mechanical thromboprophylaxis (Grade 2B)

  10. Hospitalized Acutely Ill Medical Patients • In acutely ill hospitalized medical patients who receive an initial course of thromboprophylaxis, we suggest against extending duration of thromboprophylaxis beyond the period of patient immobilization or acute hospital stay (Grade 2B)

  11. Critically Ill Patients • Suggest against routine ultrasound screening for DVT (2C) • Suggest using LMWH or LDUH thromboprophylaxis over no prophylaxis (2C) • Bleeding or high risk for major bleeding, suggest mechanical thromboprophylaxis with GCS (Grade 2C) or IPC (Grade 2C) until the bleeding risk decreases • When bleeding risk decreases, suggest that pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis be substituted for mechanical thromboprophylaxis (Grade 2C)

  12. Cancer in the Outpatient Setting • No additional risk factors for VTE, we suggest against routine prophylaxis with LMWH or LDUH (grade 2B) and recommend against the prophylactic use of VKAs (1B) • In outpatients with solid tumors who have additional risk factors for VTE and who are at low risk of bleeding, we suggest prophylactic-dose LMWH or LDUH over no prophylaxis (2B) • In outpatient with cancer and indwelling central venous catheters, we suggest against routine prophylaxis with LMWH or LDUH (2B) and suggest against the prophylactic use of VKAs (2C)

  13. Chronically Immobilized Patients • In chronically immobilized persons residing at home or at a nursing home, we suggest against the routine use of thromboprophylaxis (2C)

  14. Persons Traveling Long-Distance • For long-distance travelers at increased risk of VTE (including previous VTE, recent surgery or trauma, active malignancy, pregnancy, estrogen use, advanced age, limited mobility, severe obesity, or known thrombophilic disorder) • frequent ambulation, calf muscle exercise, or sitting in an aisle seat if feasible (2C) • Suggest the use of properly fitted, below-knee GCS providing 15 to 30 mm Hg of pressure at the ankle during travel (2C). • For all other long-distance travelers, we suggest against the use of GCS (2C) • For long-distance travelers, we suggest against the use of aspirin or anticoagulants to prevent VTE (2C)

  15. Patient undergoing General, GI, Urological, Gynecologic, Bariatric, Vascular, Plastic, or Reconstructive Surgery Prevention of VTE inNonorthopedic Surgical Patients

  16. General and Abdominal-Pelvic Surgery • Very low risk of VTE (<0.5%; Rogers score, <7; Caprini score, 0) • No specific pharmacologic (Grade 1B) or mechanical (Grade 2C) prophylaxis be used other than early ambulation • Low risk for VTE (~1.5%, Rogers score, 7-10; Caprini score, 1-2) • Mechanical prophylaxis, preferably with intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC), over no prophylaxis (Grade 2C) • Moderate risk for VTE (~3.0%; Rogers score, >10; Caprini score 3-4) who are not at high risk for major bleeding complications • LMWH (Grade 2B), LDUH (Grade 2B), or mechanical prophylaxis, preferably with IPC (Grade 2C), over no prophylaxis

  17. General and Abdominal-Pelvic Surgery • Moderate risk for VTE (3.0%; Rogers score, > 10; Caprini score, 3-4) who are at high risk for major bleeding complications or those in whom the consequences of bleeding are thought to be particularly severe • mechanical prophylaxis, preferably with IPC, over no prophylaxis (Grade 2C) • High risk for VTE (~6.0%; Caprini score, ≥ 5) who are not at high risk for major bleeding complications • pharmacologic prophylaxis with LMWH (Grade 1B) or LDUH (Grade 1B) over no prophylaxis • Mechanical prophylaxis with elastic stockings or IPC should be added to pharmacologic prophylaxis (Grade 2C)

  18. General and Abdominal-Pelvic Surgery • High-VTE-risk patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic surgery for cancer who are not otherwise at high risk for major bleeding complication, we recommend extended-duration pharmacologic prophylaxis (4 weeks) with LMWH over limited-duration prophylaxis (Grade 1B) • High-VTE-risk patients who are at high risk for major bleeding complications or those in whom the consequences or those in whom the consequences of bleeding are thought to be particularly severe, we suggest use of mechanical prophylaxis, preferably with IPC, over no prophylaxis until the risk of bleeding diminishes and pharmacologic prophylaxis may be initiated (Grade 2C).

  19. General and Abdominal-Pelvic Surgery • High risk for VTE (6%; Caprini score, ≥ 5) in whom both LMWH and unfractionated heparin are contraindicated or unavailable and who are not at high risk for major bleeding complications • low-dose aspirin (Grade 2C), fondaparinux (grade 2C), or mechanical prophylaxis, preferably with IPC (Grade 2C), over no prophylaxis. • Inferior vena cava (IVC) filter should not be used for primary VTE prevention (Grade 2C) • Periodic surveillance with venous compression ultrasound should not be performed (Grade 2C)

  20. VTE TREATMENT

  21. Deep Vein Thrombosis • DVT of the leg • Acute DVT • Isolated distal • Isolated proximal • Provoked • Non-provoked • Recurrent DVT

  22. Acute Isolated Distal DVT • Without severe symptoms or risk factors for extension, suggest serial imaging of the deep veins for 2 weeks over initial anticoagulation (2C) • With severe symptoms or risk factors for extension, suggest initial anticoagulation over serial imaging of the deep veins (2C) • Patients that are managed with anticoagulation should be managed the same as for patients with acute proximal DVT (1B)

  23. Acute Isolated Distal DVT • Patients managed with serial imaging • No anticoagulation if the thrombus does not extend (1B) • Anticoagulation if the thrombus extends but remains confined to the distal veins (2C) • Anticoagulation if the thrombus extends into the proximal veins (1B)

  24. Deep Vein Thrombosis • In patients with acute DVT of the leg treated with vitamin K antagonist (VKA), suggest initial treatment with parental anticoagulation (1B) • Intermediate to high clinical suspicion of acute VTE, treat with parental anticoagulants if the results of diagnostic test are expected to be delayed for more than 4 hours (2C) • Low clinical suspicion of an acute VTE, do not treat with parental anticoagulants while awaiting results, provided tests results are expected within 24 hours (2C)

  25. Parental Anticoagulation • In patients with acute DVT of the leg, suggest LMWH or fondaparinux over IV UFH (2C) and over SC UFH (2B for LMWH; 2C for fondaparinux) • In patients with acute DVT of the leg treated with LMWH, suggest once- over twice-daily administration (2C) • Only when the approved once daily regimen uses the same daily dose as the twice-daily regimen (i.e. contains double the dose of the twice-daily injection)

  26. When to initiate VKA? • Same day as parental therapy • Continue parental anticoagulation for a minimum of 5 days AND until the INR is 2.0 or greater for at least 24 hours (1B)

  27. INR Range • DVT of the leg treated with VKA, therapeutic INR range of 2.0 to 3.0 (1B) is recommended for all treatment durations

  28. Phases of anticoagulation Initial Long-term Extended (0 to ~7 days) (~7 days to ~3 months) (~3 months to indefinite) *heparin, LMWH, fondaparinux Vitamin K antagonist or other agent (LMWH, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) Parenteral*

  29. Duration of therapy

  30. Proximal DVT of the leg • Provoked by surgery = 3 months (1B) • Provoked by nonsurgical transient factor = 3 months (1B) • First unprovoked • Low to moderate bleeding risk = extended therapy over 3 months (2B) • High bleeding risk = 3 months (1B)

  31. Isolated Distal DVT of the leg • Provoked by surgery = 3 months • Provoked by nonsurgical transient risk factor = 3 months • First unprovoked = 3 months regardless of bleeding risk (2B low or moderate, 1B high)

  32. Second Unprovoked DVT • Low bleeding risk = Extended anticoagulation therapy over 3 months (1B) • Moderate bleeding risk = Extended anticoagulation therapy over 3 months (2B) • High bleeding risk = 3 months (2B)

  33. Active Cancer • DVT of the leg and active cancer • Extended anticoagulation therapy over 3 months (1B,2B) • First line: LMWH (2B) • Second line: VKA therapy (2B)

  34. Inpatient or Outpatient? • In patients with acute DVT of the leg and whose home circumstances are adequate, recommend initial treatment at home over treatment in the hospital (1B)

  35. Early Ambulation • In patients with acute DVT of the leg, suggest early ambulation over initial bed rest (2C)

  36. Compression Stockings • Use in patients with acute symptomatic DVT of the leg (2B) • Should be worn for at least 2 years • Wear beyond if patient develops PTS and finds stockings helpful • In patients with PTS of the leg, suggest a trial of compression stockings (2C)
