Direct Oral Anticoagulant Management for Cardiac Device Implantation

StimAOD
Start date: February 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Each year, tens of thousands of cardiac rhythm devices including pacemaker (PM) or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) are implanted in France. More than 25% of patients undergoing cardiac device implantation receive long-term anticoagulation therapy, that increases the incidence of pocket hematoma with potential serious consequences for patients. Although more and more patients receive direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), limited data currently exist on the perioperative management of DOAC-treated patients undergoing cardiac device implantation and the optimal strategy remains unclear. Especially, the time of DOAC resumption after the procedure is controversial. We hypothesize that the time of DOAC resumption is the main risk factor of bleeding event in DOAC-treated patients undergoing cardiac device implantation, that is to say that a delayed DOAC resumption > 48 hours following the procedure will reduce pocket hematoma incidence compared with an early resumption, ≤ 48 hours, without increasing thromboembolic events. We propose here an observational multicentre national study to find out the optimal strategy.
