Nazim Arain Shares The New Standard: Anticoagulation in Cirrhosis
Nazim Arain, Consultant Internal Medicine and Gastroenterologist at Almana Group of Hospitals, shared on LinkedIn:
”Anticoagulation in Cirrhosis: The New Standard
Patients with cirrhosis face an increased risk of thrombotic events like AF and VTE.
It’s now accepted that their coagulation is “rebalanced,” making anticoagulation the standard of care to reduce stroke/thrombosis risk!
The primary bleeding risk is linked to portal hypertension, NOT general clotting deficiency.
Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) can be considered for Child-Pugh A and Bpatients.
LMWH often preferred in Child-Pug-C.
