Impact of femoral vascular closure devices and antithrombotic therapy on access site bleeding in acute coronary syndromes: The Acute Catheterization and Urgent Intervention Triage Strategy (ACUITY) trial.
The Acute Catheterization and Urgent Intervention Triage Strategy (ACUITY) trial demonstrated that bivalirudin monotherapy significantly reduces major bleeding compared with heparin (unfractionated or enoxaparin) or bivalirudin plus a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor in acute coronary syndromes. Whether vascular closure devices (VCD) impact these results is unknown. Therefore, this study sought to determine whether VCD impact major access site bleeding (ASB) in patients with acute coronary syndromes undergoing early invasive management by the femoral approach.. Major ASB in ACUITY was defined as ASB requiring interventional or surgical correction, hematoma > or =5 cm at the access site, retroperitoneal bleeding, or hemoglobin drop > or =3 g/dL with ecchymosis or hematoma <5 cm, oozing blood, or prolonged bleeding (>30 minutes) at the access site. Stepwise logistical regression was performed to identify the independent determinants of ASB. Of 11 621 patients undergoing angiography with or without percutaneous coronary intervention by the femoral approach, 4307 (37.1%) received a VCD and 7314 (62.9%) did not. Rates of major ASB were lower with VCD compared with no VCD (2.5% versus 3.3%, relative risk, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.61 to 0.94; P=0.01) and were lowest in patients treated with bivalirudin monotherapy and a VCD (0.7%). Stepwise logistic regression revealed that a VCD (odds ratio, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.61 to 0.99; P=0.04) and bivalirudin monotherapy (odds ratio, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.25 to 0.49; P<0.0001) were both independent determinates of freedom from major ASB.. In patients with acute coronary syndromes undergoing an early invasive management strategy by the femoral approach, the use of a VCD, bivalirudin monotherapy, or both minimizes rates of major ASB.

Bivalirudin versus unfractionated heparin during peripheral vascular interventions: A Propensity-matched Study.
This study aimed to compare the association of access site complications and the use of unfractionated heparin versus bivalirudin during subinguinal peripheral vascular intervention.. Compared to unfractionated heparin, bivalirudin has been associated with fewer bleeding complications in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention but more ischemic events. The safety and efficacy of direct thrombin inhibitors in peripheral vascular interventions is not well defined.. We compared the incidence of in-hospital access site complications and discharge status among patients in the multicenter, prospective Vascular Quality Initiative registry who underwent peripheral vascular intervention between August 2007 and January 2014 using bivalirudin or unfractionated heparin. Propensity score matching was used to obtain a balanced cohort of 1,524 patients in each treatment group.. Patients treated with bivalirudin had a significantly lower incidence of access site hematomas (2.4% vs. 3.9%, P = 0.018), shorter post-procedural hospitalization (1.0 vs. 1.2 days, P < 0.001) and lower rates of discharge to a nursing home or rehabilitation center rather than home (7.61% vs. 9.73%, P = 0.034) when compared with unfractionated heparin-treated patients. The incidence of in-hospital access site occlusion, distal embolization, and mortality did not differ significantly between groups.. Patients who received bivalirudin had lower rates of access site hematoma, shorter length of stay, and improved discharge status compared with unfractionated heparin during hospitalization for peripheral vascular intervention. Randomized comparisons of these agents are needed to confirm these findings. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Experimental study on the PAR-1 expression around hemotoma following intracerebral hemorrhage in rats.
In order to explore the PAR-1 mRNA and protein expression around hemotoma following intracerebral hemorrhage and the relation between the PAR-1 expression and thrombin, collagenase VII was stereotaxically injected into right caudate nucleus in rats. The PAR-1 mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR method and the PAR-1 protein expression by immunohistochemical method respectively. It was found that the PAR-1 mRNA and protein expression around hemotoma was increased at 6 h after intracerebral hemorrhage (P<0.05), peaked at 2 days (P<0.01), and then declined. The change pattern of the PAR-1 mRNA and protein expression was similar to that of intracerebral hemorrhage after thrombin intracerebral injection. The PAR-1 mRNA and protein expression in hirudin group showed no significant difference with control group. These results indicated that the PAR-1 mRNA and protein expression were markedly increased after intracerebral hemorrhage, which may be closely related to thrombin. Upregulation of the PAR-1 expression may involve in neurotoxic injury induced by thrombin.

A new therapeutic option by subcutaneous recombinant hirudin in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia type II: a pilot study.
We prospectively studied 15 patients suffering from acute heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) type II with and without thromboembolic events and 4 patients with anamnestically known HIT type II recurrently requiring thromboprophylaxis in order to develop new therapeutic strategies by subcutaneous recombinant hirudin administration. Patients with acute venous or arterial thromboembolism were treated with aPTT-controlled intravenous (mean: 19.3 days) followed by subcutaneous r-hirudin (mean: 22.5 days). Patients without thromboembolism were treated with subcutaneous r-hirudin (mean: 25.9 days). Four patients were readmitted to subcutaneous r-hirudin (mean: 32 days). When r-hirudin was administered subcutaneously following intravenous treatment, mean baseline (prior to the injection) and mean peak (1.5-2.5 hours after the injection) aPTT ratios were 1.1 (+/-0.2) to 1.7 (+/-0.48) and 2. 48 (+/-0.43) to 2.52 (+/-0.4) times normal value, respectively. Mean baseline and mean peak ECT ratios were 1.2 (+/-0.12) to 1.9 (+/-0. 22) and 2.2 (+/-0.25) to 2.6 (+/-0.11) times the upper normal value, respectively. When r-hirudin was initially administered subcutaneously, mean baseline and mean peak aPTT ratios were 1.41 (+/-0.25) to 1.61 (+/-00.28) and 1.88 (+/-0.26) to 2.06 (+/-0.09) times the normal value, respectively. Mean baseline and mean peak ECT ratios were 1.25 (+/-0.2) to 1.5 (+/-0.38) and 2.01 (+/-0.21) to 2.23 (+/-0.25) times the upper limit of normal, respectively. Patients who received recurrent subcutaneous r-hirudin had mean baseline and peak aPTT values of 1.5 (+/-0.35) to 1.75 (+/-0.156) and 2.0 (+/-0.33) to 2.1 (+/-0.18) times the normal value, respectively. Mean baseline and peak ECT ratios were 1.3 (+/-0.26) to 1.65 (+/-0.09) and 1.94 (+/-0.256) to 2.7 (+/-0.23) times the upper limit of normal, respectively. The overall cumulative incidence of r-hirudin antibodies was 12/19 (63%) with a significant accumulation of r-hirudin in antibody-positive patients compared to antibody-negative patients (p<0.05). No patient suffered a new thromboembolic or major bleeding event. Subcutaneous administration of recombinant hirudin provides a long-term thromboprophylaxis regimen in HIT type II patients after passivation of acute thromboembolism.
