OBJECTIVE To form an expert consensus on the clinical application of parenteral direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) in patients during the perioperative period. METHODS Led by Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital (the Affiliated Hospital of UESTC), a multidisciplinary working group was established. Through literature review and the Delphi method, clinical questions related to the rational perioperative use of parenteral DTIs were identified. A structured design was adopted using the “Population-Intervention-Comparison-Outcome” framework; systematic searches were conducted in CNKI, Medline, Embase and other databases. Relevant evidence from randomized controlled trials and cohort studies was included and synthesized. Evidence quality was assessed using the Grades of Recommendations Assessment,Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach, and recommendations were formulated through multiple rounds of Delphi surveys and expert consensus meetings. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS Seven recommendations (each with an expert consensus rate exceeding 90%) on the use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative patients were developed. These recommendations specify drug selection, dosing ranges, key monitoring points, and safety management strategies for parenteral DTIs in various scenarios, including the perioperative period of ventricular assist device implantation, the perioperative period of cardiac surgery, perioperative patients with lower-extremity atherosclerotic disease, the perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome, the perioperative period of carotid artery stenting in patients with carotid stenosis, the perioperative period of patients with right heart thrombosis, and patients who develop related thrombosis and dysfunction after a central venous catheter insertion. In addition, warning and management pathways for perioperative bleeding and thrombotic events were proposed. This expert consensus, which is formulated based on the best available evidence, provides evidence-based guidance for standardized and individualized use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative period.

Objective:To explore the effect of concomitant amiodarone on the bleeding risk in atrial fibrillation patients treated with dabigatran etexilate.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of hospitalized patients with atrial fibrillation who took dabigatran etexilate in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science & Technology from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 were collected. Patients were divided into concomitant amiodarone group and non concomitant amiodarone group according to whether they were treated with oral amiodarone. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed at a 1∶1 ratio in patients between the 2 groups according to patient's gender, age, main basic diseases and the number of basic diseases, baseline liver and kidney function, dosage of dabigatran etexilate, etc. The incidence of bleeding events was compared between the 2 groups.Results:A total of 878 patients were included in the study, including 568 males (64.7%) and 310 females (35.3%), with a age of 67 (59, 74) years. There were 252 patients (28.7%) in the concomitant amiodarone group and 626 patients (71.3%) in the non concomitant amiodarone group. Within 3 months of follow-up, the incidence of bleeding events in patients of concomitant and non concomitant amiodarone groups were 19.0% (48/252) and 21.2% (133/626), respectively, which were 19.0% (48/252) and 16.7% (40/239) after PSM, respectively, with no significant difference (all P>0.05). The main type of bleeding in patients of both groups was mild bleeding events [62.5% (30/48) vs. 67.5% (27/40)], and bleeding was more common in the gums, skin, and nose. There was no statistically significant difference in incidence of the bleeding types and bleeding sites of patients between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with patients with atrial fibrillation when treated with dabigatran etexilate and without concomitant amiodarone, the bleeding risk of patients with amiodarone did not significantly increased in the short term. The bleeding events during treatment of dabigatran etexilate were mainly mild bleeding, but clinical vigilance was still necessary.
