Magnitude of the problem
2 million patients undergo PCI annually
90% of these patients receive one or more intracoronary stents
5% of these patients will undergo non cardiac surgery in the first year after stenting

Why this lecture?
In patients who have coronary stents, perioperative coronary stent thrombosis is a catastrophic complication
Non cardiac surgery, especially if surgery is performed immediately after stenting and particularly if dual antiplatelet therapy is discontinued – increases this risk
Maintain balance between risk of bleeding and stent thrombosis is our dilemma.
What do we do? That’s what this lecture is about
![Page 5: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Which patients are prone for stent thrombosis? Patients with a suboptimal
angiographic result Those with high risk lesions
Small vessels Bifurcation lesions
Those with diabetes and renal failure Those whose dual antiplatelet
therapy has been stopped

Nasser et al. (20) reported sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) thrombosis in 2 patients after surgery
performed 4 and 21 months after SES implantation.
McFadden et al. (19) reported DES thrombosis in 3 patients undergoing surgery late (343 to 442
days) after implantation.

Avoiding revascularization CARP trial 510 stable patients with CAD
undergoing major vascular surgery Randomized to revascularization (by
CABG or PCI) or no revascularization Similar incidence of postoperative MI
and 27 month survival in both the groups
So, first ask the question: Is revascularization
necessary?
![Page 16: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Revascularization without stents (Balloon only) Patients with acute coronary
syndrome and those with profound ischemia on non invasive testing do need revascularization
Can be done without stents: Percutaneous balloon angioplasty
In this study, when surgery was done 11 days after PCI, only 1 patient died and 1 had an AMI

![Page 17: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
When surgery after Balloon angioplasty? 2002 ACC AHA guidelines Delaying noncardiac surgery for 6 to 8
weeks was discouraged because restenosis could have occurred
Performing noncardiac surgery too early after the PCI also may be risky because acute or subacute closure after balloon angioplasty usually occurs within hours to days after the procedure.
Delay surgery for 1 week after balloon angioplasty
![Page 18: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
If stenting can’t be avoided Complex lesion or inability to achieve
optimal result with balloon angioplasty Choose the right stent Surgery needed with 12 months: Choose
BMS Surgery can be delayed for > 12 mth: DES BMS endothelialize more rapidly than DES Sirolimus eluting stent preferable as it
requires 3 mths of antiplatelet therapy than a paclitaxel eluting stent that requires 6 mths of clopidogrel
![Page 19: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

RISK OF PERIOPERATIVE STENT THROMBOSIS WITH DES
Stents implanted in left main coronary artery
Stents implanted in bifurcations
Greater total stent length (multiple/overlapping stents)
Heightened platelet activity (surgery, DM, malignancy)
In stent restenosis
Left ventricular dysfunction
Localized hypersensitivity vasculitis
Penetration by stent into necrotic core
Plaque disruption into non stented segment
Renal failure
Diabetes mellitus
Resistance to antiplatelets
Inappropriate discontinuation of antiplatelet medications
![Page 22: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What are the steps to prevent stent thrombosis in these patients coming for non
cardiac surgery?
![Page 23: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Periop antiplatelet therapy Continue dual antiplatelet thearpy
during and after surgery Discontinue clopidogrel but “bridge”
the patient to surgery with Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor or an antithrombin, and restart clopidogrel as soon as possible after surgery
Discontinue clopidogrel before surgery and restart it as soon as possible after surgery
![Page 24: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Impact of aspirin on bleeding Most studies in cardiac and vascular
surgery Safe in doses of 75 – 150 mg Increases bleeding by a factor of 1.5, no
effect on morbidity and mortality Avoid in TURP and intracranial surgery
(as bleeding in these situations can be life threatening)
![Page 25: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Option 1 : Continue therapy Dental extractions Cataract surgery Dermatologic surgery
![Page 26: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Option 2: Bridging therapy Bridge using short acting antiplatelet
or an anticoagulant Platelet inhibitors are the more
logical choice as stent thrombosis is a platelet mediated phenomenon
Cessation of heparin in a patient not on antiplatelets can cause rebound effect and stent thrombosis
![Page 27: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Bridging therapy
A shortacting GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor (tirofiban or eptifibatide) or thrombin inhibitor, or both, is substituted for clopidogrel during the perioperative period
Role Prevent platelet aggregation Displace fibrinogen from GP IIb/IIIa
receptors Block signaling processes
![Page 28: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Bridging therapy
Tirofiban and eptifibatide are administered parenterally
Have half-lives 2 h Eliminated by renal clearance. Infusion rate is reduced by half in
patients with reduced renal function Platelet function returns to 60%–90%
of normal after the infusion is stopped for 6–8 h.
![Page 29: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
When bridging therapy?
Surgeries with high risk of bleeding Intracranial Spinal Retinal
![Page 30: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Other drugs
Reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonists are undergoing clinical trials
Cangrelor is a parenteral, reversible direct P2Y12 inhibitor
Half-life of 5–9 min allows 100% recovery of platelet function 1 h after the infusion is discontinued
4 mcg/kg/min infusion achieves complete platelet inhibition when measured at 4 min
AZD6140 is an oral, reversible direct P2Y12 receptor antagonist with a half life of 12 hrs.
![Page 31: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Problems with bridging therapy
Expensive Logistically difficult Exposes patients to risks associated
with a prolonged hospitalization Some claim that it confers no
protection against intraoperative stent thrombosis
![Page 32: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Option 3: Stop antiplatelets Neurosurgery Restart clopidogrel after surgery 600 mg loading dose – Maximal
inhibition of platelet aggregation in 2 – 4 hours (takes 6 hrs with 300 mg)
Reduces the incidence of hyporesponsiveness to platelets (which are activated due to surgery)
![Page 33: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Steps: Preoperative evaluation
Determine the type of stent: BES, SES, PES When were stents implanted? Determine location of stent in coronary
circulation How complicated was the revascularization? Is there a previous history of stent
thrombosis? What antiplatelet regimen is being followed? Determine co-morbidities? What is the recommended duration of
antiplatelet therapy for this patient? Co-ordinate with cardiologist
![Page 35: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Steps
Perform procedure in centers where there is 24 hr interventional cardiology coverage for emergency PCI
![Page 36: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Intraop management
Tight hemodynamic control Use of beta blockers Good HR control Good BP control Decrease sympathetic outflow and
therefore decrease platelet activation
![Page 37: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Regional anesthesia in patients on antiplatelets Advantages
Attenuation of hypercoagulable state Systemically absorbed LA have
antiplatelet effect Follow ASRA guidelines For patients receiving bridging
therapy with eptifibatide or tirofiban, 8 h must elapse before a neuraxial blockade can be performed
![Page 38: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Management of stent thrombosis ST segment elevation acute
myocardial infarction Reperfusion Thrombolytic therapy less effective
than primary PCI Platelet mediated phenomenon Risk of bleeding
All that is required during PCI is aspirin and one dose of heparin or bivalirudin
![Page 39: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Role of platelet transfusion Transfused platelets are not inhibited
by serum therapeutic levels of antiplatelets
The thrombogenic surface of stents may attract and activate donor platelets to an even greater extent than endogenous plateletsPlatelet transfusions to be avoided
except in instances of life threatening bleeding
![Page 40: Dr. Mahesh Vakamudi Professor and Head Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED) Sri Ramachandra University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d095503460f949db8fa/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Education In a survey of anesthesiologists, 63%
were not aware of recommendations about the appropriate length of time between stent placement and a subsequent surgical procedure, and one-third recommended no delay or a delay of only 1 to 2 weeks, which is insufficient for BMS, and even more so for DES

Take home points
Many patients come for non cardiac surgery after PCI
Stent thrombosis is a catastrophe Remember the stepwise approach to
the issue
