Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the safety of psychopharmacotherapy (PFT) of mental disorders in modern protocols for the treatment of patients with blood disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS The data of medical records of 552 patients with blood disorders who received PFT during treatment at the clinic of the National Medical Research Center for Hematology were analyzed. Any adverse events recorded while taking PFT were taken into account. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, frequency analysis, and assessment (Student's t-test) of changes in blood parameters (before and after taking psychotropic drugs). RESULTS Signs of hematotoxicity were found only in 7.1% (n=37) patients, in all cases while taking benzodiazepines (n=12) in combination with hematotoxic drugs for the treatment of blood disorders. Other significant adverse events (which caused premature discontinuation or dose reduction) were detected in 4.8% (n=25) cases, of which 9 were associated with the appointment of anxiolytics (hydroxyzine, zopiclone), 11 with antidepressants (clomipramine, amitriptyline, duloxetine, trazodone, ademethionine) and 5 with antipsychotics (risperidone, alimemazine, haloperidol). CONCLUSION Most psychotropic drugs are effective in relation to psychopathological disorders that develop in hematological patients and are safe when used at minimum/average therapeutic doses within the daily dosage ranges established by the official instructions for use.

Abstract
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a major cause of disability worldwide and is associated with serious lasting impairment. A leading hypothesis of the pathophysiology of MDD is the monoamine deficiency hypothesis which suggests that depression is caused by depletion of serotonin, norepinephrine, or dopamine in the central nervous system. Serotonin is the most widely studied neurotransmitter in the pathophysiology of depression, with studies showing that reduced central serotonin synthesis leads to depressive symptoms in individuals at risk for depression. Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRI) inhibit serotonin reuptake and subsequently increase the amount of serotonin available in synapses. Common side effects of SSRIs include increased suicidality of patients under the age of 25, sexual dysfunction, anxiety, dizziness, weight gain, gastrointestinal distress, and headache. Other side effects include prolonging the QT interval, coagulopathy, and the risk of serotonin syndrome, as well as SSRI discontinuation syndrome. Sites of increased bleeding related to SSRI use have been reported to occur in the upper gastrointestinal tract, as well as intracranially. Based on the current literature, three studies have found that SSRIs are not associated with increased bleeding and/or increased perioperative risk, while others have demonstrated that SSRIs are associated with an increased risk in perioperative use. The inhibition of serotonin reuptake can affect platelet aggregation since platelets also express the serotonin transporter. SSRIs can result in decreased storage of serotonin in platelet dense granules. Increased serotonin can also increase gastric acid secretion, which increases the risk for ulceration. SSRIs in combination with NSAIDs also show a significantly increased risk of upper GI bleeding. Some studies show an increased bleeding risk from 30% to 70% when taking a combination of vitamin K antagonists and SSRIs in hospitalized patients. Related to the high prevalence of conditions that are treated with SSRIs, the bleeding risk associated with this class of medication merits further study.

Abstract
Venlafaxine (VEN) is considered to be one of the most effective antidepressants. It belongs to the group of serotonin (5-HT) and noradrenaline (NA) reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). NA and 5-HT have receptors on the surface of platelets and are involved in platelet aggregation. In this case study, we present the case of a patient treated for one of the types of myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), essential thrombocythemia (ET), in whom VEN was added to pharmacotherapy during the treatment of a severe episode of depression with psychotic symptoms. We observed a gradual reduction in platelet count when increasing the dose of VEN. We also present a narrative review of literature about the effect of VEN on platelet counts and activity. We conclude that, in the group of patients taking VEN, attention should be paid to the rare adverse effect of a decrease in the number of platelets.

Abstract
Background Bleedings are frequent and dreaded complications in heart failure patients with ventricular assist devices (VAD). Serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI) antidepressants are widely used to treat depression in these patients, though they are attributed an increased risk of bleeding due to their modification of hemostasis. Evidence on bleeding risk of VAD patients under SRI medication is scarce and limited. We therefore aimed to assess if SRI use is associated with an elevated bleeding risk in this particularly vulnerable population. Methods We analyzed the medical records of 92 VAD patients at the University Heart Center Zurich between September 2004 and April 2018 for the occurrence of bleedings and the concomitant use of an SRI. Bleeding was defined as any type of post-implantation bleeding requiring medical treatment. We performed univariate analyses and linear mixed-effects models, adjusting for baseline clinical characteristics as potential predictors to identify differences in bleeding rates in patients with vs. without SRI intake. Results The cohort comprised 60.9% of patients with a continuous-flow VAD and 39.1% with a pulsatile-flow VAD. A total of 77.2% of patients experienced at least one bleeding incident. Overall, 28.6% of bleedings occurred under SRI therapy. A generalized linear mixed model showed a predictive effect of SRI medication on bleeding rate, independent of VAD type (z = 2.091, p = 0.037). Conclusions Bleeding events in heart failure patients occur frequently after VAD implantation. Patients with SRI medication were at increased risk of bleeding. The indication and use of SRI, therefore, should be considered carefully.

Abstract
Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) inhibit the presynaptic neuronal uptake of serotonin and norepinephrine and prolong the effects of the monoamines in the synaptic cleft within the central nervous system, leading to increased postsynaptic receptor activation and neuronal activities. Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors can have multiple clinical indications, including as the first-line agents for the management of depression and anxiety, and as analgesics in the treatment of chronic pain. The effects of reuptake inhibition of norepinephrine and serotonin are often dose-dependent and agent-dependent. There are five FDA-approved serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (desvenlafaxine, duloxetine, levomilnacipran, milnacipran and sibutramine) currently being marketed in the United States. As the COVID-19 pandemic significantly increased the incidence and prevalence of anxiety and depression across the country, there are significantly increased prescriptions of these medications perioperatively. Thus, anesthesiologists are more likely than ever to have patients administered with these agents and scheduled for elective or emergency surgical procedures. A thorough understanding of these commonly prescribed serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and their interactions with commonly utilized anesthetic agents is paramount. There are two potentially increased risks related to the continuation of SNRIs through the perioperative period: intraoperative bleeding and serotonin syndrome. SNRIs have some off-label uses, more new indications, and ever-increasing new applications in perioperative practice. This article aims to review the commonly prescribed serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and the current clinical evidence regarding their considerations in perioperative anesthesia and analgesia.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Psychiatric illness is common in patients presenting for surgery. Overall health and surgical outcomes are adversely affected by the presence of psychiatric comorbidities. RECENT FINDINGS As new treatment modalities become available, their perioperative implications need to be evaluated. These implications include drug-drug interactions, hemodynamic effects, bleeding risk, and factors affecting perioperative exacerbation of the underlying psychiatric illness. SUMMARY From our review of the recent literature we continue to support the continuation of psychoactive agents in the perioperative period, taking into consideration the effects these agents have on concomitant drug use in the perioperative period; and the risks of withholding them at a high-stress time.

Abstract
Background Patients undergoing cardiac surgery exhibit a high prevalence of concomitant depression. The first-line pharmacological treatment modality for depression includes selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Despite their efficacy, SSRIs are not without their own side-effects. Methods We conducted a retrospective observational study to determine if preoperative SSRI therapy was associated with higher rates of perioperative blood product transfusion, and higher incidence of inotropic requirements in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. A total of 2,943 patients were included in the study. Patients undergoing emergency surgery or surgery without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were excluded. Based on preoperative SSRI status patients were classed into either SSRI group (n=95), or non-SSRI group (n=2,848). Data was acquired from the Toronto Anesthesia Perioperative Outcomes Database. Results Baseline preoperative variables included age, sex, body surface area, smoking history, past medical history, preoperative medications, baseline hemoglobin, creatinine, and planned surgical procedures. Perioperative transfusion of blood products and inotropic utilization were collected. Univariate analysis showed that patients in SSRI group were more likely to be female, have history of congestive heart failure, preoperative anemia, and likelihood of having more complex surgery, received more inotropes and fresh frozen plasma, and were more likely to have chest reopening for bleeding. There was no difference in postoperative morbidity and mortality between the SSRI and non-SSRI groups. Separate statistical models were constructed to determine association between transfusion of red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, platelets, composite inotrope use, and SSRI therapy. SSRI variable was not significant in any of the multivariate models, indicating the lack of evidence of association between the SSRIs and either blood product transfusion, or inotrope requirements. Significant predictors of blood product transfusion included smaller body surface area, female gender, older age, low baseline hemoglobin levels, elevated creatinine, increased CPB, presence of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, complex cardiac surgery, history diabetes mellitus, and congestive heart failure. Predictors of inotrope use included older age, elevated creatinine, increased CPB time, history of diabetes mellitus, and congestive heart failure. Conclusions The current study suggests that modifying preoperative therapy pertinent to SSRI treatment in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery is not warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOACs) or vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) are used for the prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolic events. A potential drug-drug interaction and increased bleeding events have been reported with co-medication of selective serotonin receptor inhibitors (SSRIs) and VKA. The aim of this study was to investigate the bleeding risk of a coprescription of NOAC or VKA with SSRI. METHODS Patients with prescription of NOAC or VKA and an antidepressant drug therapy (ADTx) were selected from the drug reimbursement database of 13 Austrian health insurance funds. For this cohort, hospital discharge diagnoses for gastrointestinal bleeding, cerebral haemorrhage, and bleeding anaemia between 2010 and 2015 were analysed. RESULTS Data were available from 50 196 female and 31 308 male patients. Among these, 892 patients had 987 hospitalisations with bleeding events. The most frequent bleeding cases were gastrointestinal bleedings with 588 events (59.6%), followed by cerebral haemorrhage with 344 (34.8%), and bleeding anaemia with 55 events (5.6%), respectively. The risk of bleeding events was similar between SSRI and other ADTx, when combined with oral anticoagulants (p = 0.51). Concomitant treatment of patients with SSRI or other ADTx and NOAC was associated with an increased bleeding risk compared with cotreatment with VKA (1.21, 95% CI: 1.05-1.40; p = 0.0097). CONCLUSION Co-medication of SSRI with VKA or NOAC has little if any impact on hospital discharge diagnoses for bleeding events compared with cotreatment of those anticoagulants with other antidepressant medications.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The interest in SSRIs after stroke has increased in the past few years, with better knowledge of post-stroke depression and with the demonstrated capacity of some SSRIs to act on the functional recovery of non-depressed subjects. RECENT FINDINGS Arguments for the action of SSRIs in favour of post-stroke neurological function recovery have improved through new elements: basic science and preclinical data, positive clinical trials and repeated series of stroke patient meta-analysis, and confirmation of favourable safety conditions in post-stroke patients. Global coherence is appearing, showing that SSRIs improve stroke recovery in non-depressed patients when given for 3 months after the stroke, with highly favourable safety conditions and a favourable benefit/risk ratio. Large series are still needed.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrases constitute a group of enzymes that catalyse reversible hydration of carbon dioxide leading to the formation of bicarbonate and proton. The platelet carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) was described for the first time in the '80s of the last century. Nevertheless, its direct role in platelet physiology and pathology still remains poorly understood. The modulation of platelet CAII action as a therapeutic approach holds promise as a novel strategy to reduce the impact of cardiovascular diseases. This short review paper summarises the current knowledge regarding the role of human CAII in regulating platelet function. The potential future directions considering this enzyme as a potential drug target and important pathophysiological chain in platelet-related disorders are described.

Abstract
AbstractBackground and aims:Central neuraxial blocks (CNB: epidural, spinal and their combinations) and other spinal pain procedures can cause serious harm to the spinal cord in patients on antihaemostatic drugs or who have other risk-factors for bleeding in the spinal canal. The purpose of this narrative review is to provide a practise advisory on how to reduce risk of spinal cord injury from spinal haematoma (SH) during CNBs and other spinal pain procedures. Scandinavian guidelines from 2010 are part of the background for this practise advisory.Methods:We searched recent guidelines, PubMed (MEDLINE), SCOPUS and EMBASE for new and relevant randomised controlled trials (RCT), case-reports and original articles concerning benefits of neuraxial blocks, risks of SH due to anti-haemostatic drugs, patient-related risk factors, especially renal impairment with delayed excretion of antihaemostatic drugs, and specific risk factors related to the neuraxial pain procedures.Results and recommendations:Epidural and spinal analgesic techniques, as well as their combination provide superior analgesia and reduce the risk of postoperative and obstetric morbidity and mortality. Spinal pain procedure can be highly effective for cancer patients, less so for chronic non-cancer patients. We did not identify any RCT with SH as outcome. We evaluated risks and recommend precautions for SH when patients are treated with antiplatelet, anticoagulant, or fibrinolytic drugs, when patients’ comorbidities may increase risks, and when procedure-specific risk factors are present. Inserting and withdrawing epidural catheters appear to have similar risks for initiating a SH. Invasive neuraxial pain procedures, e.g. spinal cord stimulation, have higher risks of bleeding than traditional neuraxial blocks. We recommend robust monitoring routines and treatment protocol to ensure early diagnosis and effective treatment of SH should this rare but potentially serious complication occur.Conclusions:When neuraxial analgesia is considered for a patient on anti-haemostatic medication, with patient-related, or procedure-related risk factors, the balance of benefits against risks of bleeding is decisive; when CNB are offered exclusively to patients who will have a reduction of postoperative morbidity and mortality, then a higher risk of bleeding may be accepted. Robust routines should ensure appropriate discontinuation of anti-haemostatic drugs and early detection and treatment of SH.Implications:There is an on-going development of drugs for prevention of thromboembolic events following surgery and childbirth. The present practise advisory provides up-to-date knowledge and experts’ experiences so that patients who will greatly benefit from neuraxial pain procedures and have increased risk of bleeding can safely benefit from these procedures. There are always individual factors for the clinician to evaluate and consider. Increasingly it is necessary for the anaesthesia and analgesia provider to collaborate with specialists in haemostasis. Surgeons and obstetricians must be equally well prepared to collaborate for the best outcome for their patients suffering from acute or chronic pain. Optimal pain management is a prerequisite for enhanced recovery after surgery, but there is a multitude of additional concerns, such as early mobilisation, early oral feeding and ileus prevention that surgeons and anaesthesia providers need to optimise for the best outcome and least risk of complications.
