Crossroad of clinical management
•When to bridge anticoagulant ?
•When to stop anticoagulant / antiplatelet ?
•When to re-initiate anticoagulant /antiplatelet if stopped ?

Anticoagulant /Antiplatelet in Dengue Patients
•There are limited available evidence and no guideline on how to manage anticoagulant in dengue patients with prosthetic valves or venous thromboembolism (VTE), and antiplatelet in dengue patients with cardiovascular disease that required mono or dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT).
•The risks of bleeding need to be balanced against the risks of thrombosis from temporary withhold anticoagulant or antiplatelet. Hence, the case management is case to case basis, based on expert opinion from various managing team with extrapolated evidence from non dengue patients.
•However, thrombocytopenia, platelet dysfunction and coagulopathies in dengue fever are dynamics.

Safe platelet cut off for anticoagulant ?
Tufanoet al. Seminars in Thrombosis and hemostasis 2011. Apr;37(3):267-74
Mild/moderate thrombocytopenia (> 50,000/mL) should not interfere
with VTE prevention decisions. In severe thrombocytopenia,
prophylaxis should be considered on an individual basis.

Safe platelet cut off for anticoagulant ?
•In acute and non acute VTE, the panel suggests safe anticoagulation with
LMWH at therapeutic doses for PLT between ≥50 and < 100×109 /L and
at 50% dose reduction for PLT ≥30 <50 ×109 /L.

•Retrospective cohort study of adult dengue patients on antiplatelet therapy for ischaemicheart disease or stroke. Decision on continuation or discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy was made on clinical grounds, in discussion with the patients, by the attending physician
•Primary outcome: composite outcome of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), and all-cause mortality in-hospital and for 1-year post discharge.
•Secondary outcomes: platelet and blood transfusion, and occurrence of dengue haemorrhagicfever (DHF), dengue shock syndrome, dengue with warning signs and severe dengue according to WHO criteria.

Result
•66 patients (15 were continued antiplatelet therapy)
•40 patients (61%) were on antiplatelet therapy for ischemic heart disease, 25 patients (38%) for ischemic stroke and 1 patient for both conditions. (*11 patients had PCI with coronary stent)
•Patients who were continued on antiplatelet therapy had a higher median Charlson’scomorbidity index at 6 (IQR: 3-7) vs4 (IQR: 2-5), higher median platelet nadir at 60 000/µL (IQR: 23 000-131 000/µL) vs27 000/µL (IQR: 13 000-47 000/µL) for those whose antiplatelet therapy were discontinued.
•5 patients developed non-fatal ischemic stroke (among 2/15 who continued, 3/51 who discontinued antiplatelet. No patient had coronary artery stent thrombosis or major cardiac events.
•Discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy did not result in higher composite outcome (p=0.192). Continuation of antiplatelet therapy did not result in more platelet or blood transfusion (p=0.489 and p=0.567 respectively), DHF (p=0.923).
•Author suggested that discontinuation or continuation of antiplatelet therapy based on clinical judgementin dengue with thrombocytopenia, is largely safe but further studies are needed.

Safety Evidence Of Antiplatelet Interruption
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2018, Issue 7. Art. No.: CD012584.
DOI: 10.1002/14651858.CD012584.pub2.

All Cause Mortality (Up to 30 days)

All Cause Mortality (Up to 6 months)

Risk Of Ischaemic Events (within 30 days)

Safety Of Antiplatelet Interruption
•Plasma half-life of aspirin is only 20 minutes.
•However, the effects of aspirin may last up to ≈10 days (life span of platelet),
because platelets cannot generate new COX. After a single dose of aspirin,
platelet COX activity recovers by ≈10% per day as a function of platelet
turnover.Although it may takes 10 days to restore normal COX activity when
total platelet population is renewed, it has been shown that if as little as 20%
of platelets have normal COX activity, hemostasis may be normal*.
•Marrow suppression +/-peripheral destruction of platelet causing
thrombocytopenia in dengue fever and platelet dysfunction may prolonged
the effect of aspirin.

Situations to consider :
•Significant bleeding
•Phase of dengue fever
•Presence of warning signs /severe dengue
•Platelet trend
•Risk of thrombosis
•Risk of bleeding
Multi-disciplinary team approach, always discuss and make decision together with patient and/or family.
Approach To Anticoagulant / Antiplatelet In DF

With Significant Bleeding
•Stop the anticoagulant or antiplatelet
•Antidote if available ( VitK for warfarin, Idarucizumabfor Dabigatrand)
•Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) or ProthrombinComplex Concentrate (PCC)
•Platelet Concentrate and/or Packed cell or Whole Blood transfusion
•Stabilise the haemodynamic

Without Significant Bleeding
•Withhold anticoagulant /antiplatelet in DF with any of following:
A). Severe Dengue
B). Platelet < 50 x 109/L
•Consider withhold anticoagulant / antiplatelet in DF in febrile phase with warning signs or platelet reducing trend to between 50 -100 x 109/L, especially in those with high risk of bleeding, but relatively lower thrombosis risk.
•If anticoagulant needed for dengue patients with high risk of thrombosis but relatively low risk of bleeding, switch DOAC/ Warfarin (VKA) to LMWH/ Conventional heparin infusion when INR subtherapeuticif platelet 50 -100 x 109/L or even earlier with platelet > 100 x 109/L in febrile phase.
•Multi-disciplinary team management with cardiologist, haematologist, intensivist/anaesthetist, patient and patient’s family for decision making.

Clinical Course Of Dengue Fever
Muhammad ZamanKhan Assir2011

Re-initiate Anticoagulant/ Antiplatelet
•Generally, anticoagulant or antiplatelet can be resumed once dengue
patient in recovery phase and platelet improving trend to ≥ 50 x 109/L,
unless any specific contra-indication.

Physiological changes in pregnancy
Dilutionalanaemia
}Expansion of blood volume (~1.5L) with relatively lesser
increment of red blood cell from the maternal
erythropoietin drive, cause Hband Hctlevels drop during
pregnancy.
Thrombocytopenia
}Hemodilution, increase consumption and aggregation
cause thrombocytopenia in 7-8% of all pregnancies,
occur usually during 2ndhalf of pregnancy.

Physiological changes in pregnancy (Cardio)

•Risk of adverse fetal outcomes from maternal DENV infection with a pooled RR of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.85–1.09, I2= 49.6%) for premature birth, RR of 0.99 (95%CI: 0.87–1.12, I2= 35.1%) for low birth weight, OR of 1.77 (95% CI: 0.99–3.15, I2= 17.5%) for miscarriage and RR of 3.42 (95% CI: 0.76–15.49, I2= 54.8%) for stillbirth.
•Subgroup analysis of studies in symptomatic participants still did not indicate DENV infection appeared to be a risk factor for premature birth, low birth weight and miscarriage as well.

Delivery
CPG Management of Dengue Infection in Adults (3rd Edition)
}Dengue infection is not an indication for elective delivery.
}Majority of patients can be allowed to progress to spontaneous vaginal delivery.
}Premature labour occurs during the acute infection. It is advisable to delay the delivery until acute infection resolve with tocolytic(nifedipine, atosiban) if indicated and appropriate by Obstetrician.

•Close fetalmonitoring is required in this group of patients to detect fetaldistress and decision for delivery can be made
•All pregnant mothers with dengue should be co-managed in hospitals by physician, anaesthetist and obstetrician.
