Abstract
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of various heparin therapy regimens for venous thromboembolic complications in patients with acute cerebral circulatory disorders of the hemorrhagic type.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
In a prospective single-center study, treatment results of 62 patients with hypertensive brain hematoma were analyzed. All patients were divided into two comparable groups: the group of «very early» prophylactic heparin therapy or the first 48 hours from the moment of the disease (n=35) and the group of «early» prophylactic heparin therapy, or later than 48 hours from the moment of the intracerebral hematoma development (n=27). The end points of the study were: venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism (fatal and non-fatal), recurrent intracerebral hemorrhage, other clinically significant hemorrhagic complications, and intrahospital mortality.
RESULTS
In the group of «very early» and «early» prophylactic heparin therapy, the results were as follows: venous thrombosis 22.9% vs. 29.6% (p=0.36), total rate of PE 2.9% vs. 11.1% (p=0.03), nonfatal PE 0% vs. 7.4% (p=0.007), fatal PE 2.9% vs. 3.7% (p=0.76), recurrent intracerebral hemorrhage and other hemorrhagic complications 0% in both groups, intrahospital mortality was 54.3% versus 48.1% (p=0.54).
CONCLUSION
The earliest administration of direct anticoagulants in prophylactic doses in patients with hemorrhagic stroke leads to the decrease in the frequency of venous thrombosis and thromboembolic complications, without being accompanied by the development of repeated intracranial and other hemorrhagic events.
