Clinical Trial Summary

The optimal intensity of oral anticoagulation in China patients undergoing mechanical valve replacements is still controversial due to the different risk profiles of thrombophilia and bleeding in Chinese patients. Elevated D-dimer could reflect a pro-thrombogenic or prothrombotic state, and thus might be used to decide the intensity of oral anticoagulation.

This study was to evaluate whether elevated D-dimer levels could help to determine the intensity of oral anticoagulation in patients with mechanical heart valve prostheses.


Description:

Background: The optimal intensity of oral anticoagulation in China patients undergoing mechanical valve replacements is still controversial due to the different risk profiles of thrombophilia and bleeding in Chinese patients. Elevated D-dimer could reflect a pro-thrombogenic or prothrombotic state, and thus might be used to decide the intensity of oral anticoagulation.

Objective: This study was to evaluate whether elevated D-dimer levels could help to determine the intensity of oral anticoagulation in patients with mechanical heart valve prostheses.

Methods: A single-center, prospective study was performed. 629 Patients with mechanical valve replacement who had received oral anticoagulation. The patients were randomly assigned to three groups The intensity of anticoagulation for group one was standard intensity (INR:2.5-3.5). The intensity of anticoagulation for group two was kept at low intensity without adjustment (INR:1.6-2.6), and for group three , The intensity of anticoagulation maintained at low level initiatively (INR:1.6-2.6), D-dimer testing were analyzed two times at 3 month later. In case of D-dimer level elevated, adjusted the intensity of anticoagulation to standard level. The endpoint of the study was the subsequent thromboembolic and major bleeding during an average follow-up of 2 years.
