A very ilustrative table can be found at 315 page ( table 2 ). This contets the most efective pathways in anticoagulatión and antiagregation reversal before emergency surgery.

warfarin
1. vitamin K, 5-10 mg IV
2. 3-factor PCC, 4000 IU
3. low-dose rFVIIa, 1.0 mg†
lab test:PT/INR

UFH (unfraccioned heparin)
1. stop infusion
2. protamine sulfate, 1 mg for each 100
U of active heparin
lab test:PTT
FFP contraindicated
2. slow administration (<5 mg/minute) to avoid prota-mine-
induced bronchoconstriction or hypotension

LMWH Low-molecular-weight heparin
1. protamine sulfate, 1 mg for each 1 mg of
LMWH
2. consider activated PCC (FEIBA)
3. consider rFVIIa

pentasaccharide
1. rFVIIa, 30–90 μg/kg anti-Xa assay

aspirin
1. 1 U platelet transfusion
2. consider DDAVP, 0.3 μg/kg
3. consider rFVIIa, 30–90 μg /kg
consider PFA-100

clopidogrel or ticlopidine 1. 2 U platelet transfusion
2. consider DDAVP, 0.3 μg/kg
3. consider rFVIIa, 30–90 μg/kg
lab test: consider platelet aggregometry

Hello,
I’m a neurosurgery resident in Japan. I found this page several days ago. There are few blogs which talk about neurosurgery, so I’m glad to find here. I’m looking forward to reading this site and I added this blog to my reading list of my page. I hope this page will be a nice community as you say.
