Aravind Palraj: Antiphospholipid Syndrome is not Just ‘Start Warfarin and Follow INR’

Aravind Palraj, Senior Resident in Clinical Immunology and Rheumatology at Madras Medical College, shared a post on X:

“Antiphospholipid Syndrome is not just ‘start warfarin and follow INR.’

Management depends on:

  • Thrombosis type (arterial vs venous)
  • Obstetric profile
  • Antibody pattern (triple-positive risk)
  • Recurrent events

Triple-positive APS – Avoid DOACs Recurrent arterial events – Consider higher INR target Catastrophic APS – Anticoagulation plus steroids plus PLEX plus IVIG APS care is risk-stratified medicine.”
