Bleeding – Mechanisms of harm & Strategies to reduce risk
Mechanisms
n Confounding
l
“Sick people bleed, and sick people die”
n Severe bleeding
l
Hypotension
l
Reversal of antithrombotic therapy
n Mild or Moderate bleeding
l
Cessation of antithrombotic therapy1
l
Blood transfusion2
Strategies
n Identify who is at risk so you can
use bleeding avoidance strategies
n Judicious use of blood transfusion n Pharmacotherapy n Vascular access
l
U/S for femoral access
l Radial access
