Low Molecular Weight Heparins
•
Half-life of low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) is 3–5 hours with effects typically lasting 12–24 hours (may be longer in patients with renal impairment).

•
Bleeding recalcitrant to protamine or imminent life-threatening bleeding, rFVIIa (dose not established), or PCC can be considered. Low doses may be effective to achieve goals and allow titration to effect as onset is rapid (minutes). Repeat doses of protamine may need to be considered if activity is prolonged from reduced elimination in renal insufficiency.
•
Andexanet alfa, an agent that can potentially neutralize LMWH, is available but FDA approved only for reversing apixaban and rivaroxaban. No standard dosing guidance is provided for LMWH reversal at this time.

Agent Dose Comment
Unfractionated heparin
For IV heparin:
• Protamine 1 mg/100 units of heparin, maximum of 50 mg at rate not to exceed 5 mg/min; if >60 min after holding the UFH infusion,
0.5 mg/100 units; if >2 hr, 0.25 mg/100 units; may give additional
after at least 10 min.
•
Higher doses of protamine
are used to reverse heparin effects after high doses during cardiopulmonary bypass surgeries.
For subcutaneous heparin
• (treatment dosing): 25–50 mg IV infusion over 8–16 hr (with bleeding/high risk of bleeding: aPTT at goal, use 25 mg; if elevated aPTT, use 50 mg and recheck aPTT)—see Chapter 8.
Because the half-life of IV heparin is relatively short (~60–90 min) with effects dissipating rapidly after stopping the IV infusion, consider calculating the dose of protamine sulfate from the amount of heparin administered within the preceding few hours.
Can add the total amount of heparin administered over the past 3 hours if no recent bolus (> 8 hours past the bolus) as the amount of heparin to neutralize.
After an IV UFH bolus and bleeding (or high risk): 1 mg/100 units of UFH if aPTT
at goal; 1.5 mg/100 units of UFH if the aPTT is elevated.
Infuse at 5 mg/min.
After large doses in cardiac bypass graft surgery and initial protamine reversal, redistribution of heparin out of tissues to the plasma may lead to a rebound heparin effect where additional protamine may be considered when bleeding concerns are present.
Neutralization of sub-Q UFH may require a prolonged infusion of protamine sulfate or repeat doses (e.g. in 4 hr depending on how long it has been since the sub-Q dose and how high the aPTT/anti-Xa level is) until sufficient loss of effects.

Fondaparinux
•
Long half-life (17–21 hours).
•
Monitoring of anti-factor Xa activity level requires a fondaparinux-specifically calibrated anti-factor Xa assay value to determine if reversal is not established.
•
No definitive antidote data, but some limited short-term effect may exist with rFVIIa and may be a consideration in life-threatening situations. PCC (FEIBA™) hypothetically may have an effect (see PCC section below).
•
Protamine does not bind to fondaparinux and may not effectively reverse its effects given the lack of sites on the molecule to elicit an effect, and similar hypersensitivity precautions would still be a concern.
Concentrated Clotting Factors—LMWH/Fondaparinux
•
Prothrombin complex concentrates (PCC) may have a role in protamine recal­citrant reversal.
FEIBA: The ability of FEIBA to work downstream of anti-factor Xa activity in the
common pathway in the coagulation cascade has been postulated with limited in vitro evidence as an advantage in reversing anticoagulation when in the presence of an anti-factor Xa activity inhibitor (fondaparinux analyzed). Dose of FEIBA proposed is 25 units/kg. However, lower doses may be effective to achieve hemostatic target goals.
Note: PCC products contain clotting factors. FEIBA differs from other PCCs in
that some of the factors present are already in an activated form (Chapter 8). The activated factors may produce immediate thrombin generation in the presence of an anti-factor Xa activity inhibitor.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR DRUG ADMINISTRATION
•
Protamine: Typically reserved for life-threatening bleeds during UFH or LMWH therapy or to prevent risks of bleeding after very large UFH doses.
•
Chapter 8 contains information on the specific reversal agents.
•
Protamine can be administered undiluted in emergency situations, but dilution in dextrose in 5% water (D5W) or normal saline (NS) is preferred.
DIRECT THROMBIN INHIBITORS
•
Parenteral DTIs used concomitantly with warfarin may elevate the INR value above warfarin’s anticoagulation effects.
Elevated INR values secondary to DTIs in the absence of warfarin
may not reflect excessive loss of systemic vitamin K-dependent clotting factors but a false positive influence on the assay; thus, vitamin K should not be used for reversal if no warfarin has been given.
The INR, aPTT, ecarin clotting time, or thrombin time may also be elevated with oral DTIs. The INR’s ability to reflect a level of anti­coagulant effect is unclear. As the DTI concentration rises, depend-
ANTICOAGULATION REVERSAL: PART II 203
https://t.me/med1917
ing on the sensitivity of the assay, the INR can eventually rise. Elevated INR values may actually suggest excessive anticoagulation if no other causes are present (e.g., liver failure, DOACs).
If the prothrombin time (PT)/INR and aPTT are difficult to interpret to assess loss of DTI effects, a thrombin time can be considered.
•
Prolonged effect due to reduced elimination in impaired cardiac, hepatic, or renal function requires extended monitoring for recurrent bleeding or ongoing bleeding risk.
•
In patients with normal organ function, the parenteral DTIs half-life is short (~30–60 minutes depending on the product) and effects will minimize within 3–4 hours of stopping.
DTIs administered by the subcutaneous (sub-Q) or oral route may
have longer durations of actions.
A thrombin time may be a separate means to confirm decline of
anticoagulant effects.
Parenteral Direct Thrombin Inhibitors (Argatroban, Bivalirudin)
Parenteral direct thrombin inhibitors in general have a relatively short half­life in healthy individuals. In the presence of organ failure, elimination may be impaired and take a substantially longer time (>24 hours in selected settings) to be removed. Little information is available on the reversal of the parenteral DTI (Table 9-10).
•
Argatroban: No clear reversal agent or antidote is known. Elimination is hepatic, but also reduced in renal failure (see Chapter 5). In severe organ failure, effects may last several days.
•
Bivalirudin: No reliable data on reversal agents; however, low-dose rFVIIa has been used along with ultrafiltration with some effect. to verify this concept. Elimination is primarily enzymatic with some liver and renal clearance. In hypothermia, elimination may be reduced.
•
Therapeutic responses on lower doses may suggest decreased elimination and longer periods of time for the effects to decline (see Figure 9-2).

• Hemostatic agents do not directly reverse DOACs, but can drive hemostasis indirectly. The dose has never been determined and may be situation dependent. Because they create an independent risk for thrombosis, the lowest effective dose may be desirable. Given that the onset of effects from these agents are rapid (in minutes), if semi-rapid hemostasis is considered necessary, low doses can be considered initially if time permits and titrated with additional doses until target goals (prevention or stabilization of bleeding) are achieved.
•
In the setting of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), guidelines from the Neurocritical Care Society recommend 50 units/kg of a PCC. Lower doses have been reported in case reports or case series.
22
Overdose of DOAC: In the setting of an overdose, bleeding if not already occurring may not happen until invasive procedures such as lines, etc., are placed.
Dabigatran
•
Dabigatran half-life is longer than parenteral DTIs (12–17 hours).
•
In the presence of organ failure, effects of all DTIs may last longer after holding secondary to slower elimination.
•
Dabigatran etexilate is approximately 80% renally cleared.
•
Idarucizumab: A U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved antidote specifically designed to reverse dabigatran (see Chapter 8).
The recommended dose is a 5-gm IV bolus. Available in 2.5 gm in
50-cc vials with each vial infused over 5 minutes.
Idarucizumab reverses most concentrations of dabigatran for up to
24 hours in most patients.
A 5-gm dose may not fully reverse very high concentra-
tions. In such situations, a second dose may be necessary for complete reversal of effects.
Onset of reversal is immediate. Has no prothrombotic effects—It is unclear if additional adjunct
may be needed to stop active life-threatening bleeding.
In presence of bleeding and need for urgent reversal, data support-
ing preferred options between concentrated clotting factors or tranexamic acid to establish hemostasis are unknown.
Hemodialysis can remove dabigatran (see Table 9-12). Drug interactions with the oral agents may prolong their effects. A TT may be a separate means to confirm decline of anticoagulant
effects.

TABLE 9-12: Considerations for the Removal of Dabigatran by
Hemodialysis
Consideration Comment
Develop an approach in advance for implementing emergent hemodialysis for the removal of dabigatran.
Establish an approach to assessing adequate drug removal. Determine which assays will be used to measure the removal of dabigatran.
Consider associated bleeding risks with insertion of the dialysis catheter.
Initiate dialysis at a tolerable flow rate (e.g., 400–500 mL/min). After a few hours, the rate can be reduced to allow removal of drug redistributing from tissue compartments to the plasma. The duration of dialysis may depend on the amount of dabigatran in the system, the patient’s ability to tolerate hemodialysis, hemodialysis approach, blood flow rate, and assay results confirming adequate removal.
23,27-30
Limit any logistical delays or barriers to initiating hemodialysis. Coordination in advance if transferring the patient to a higher level care facility.
Consider: TT, ECT, dilute TT. Declining values can indicate removal of dabigatran; however, some may be normal at therapeutic levels (aPTT, INR). A normal TT may suggest sufficient removal. Note: The use of more than one testing approach may help confirm observations.
Low-dose aPCC (FEIBA) ~ 8 units/kg immediately prior to insertion of the dialysis catheter has been reported to be used safely.
In most case reports, a rebound in dabigatran concentrations was observed after stopping hemodialysis and notably less than two-thirds was removed in the first 2 hr. Initial dialysis blood flow rates of 200 mL/min removed 49% compared to 59% at 400 mL/min in one analysis of hemodialysis for 4 hr. Initial dabigatran plasma concentrations were approximately 159 ng/mL. Duration of hemodialysis may be a strong predictor of overall removal. In one case report of a 9-gm overdose with a dabigatran concentration of 1,560 ng/mL—CVVHF x 32 hr successfully removed dabigatran—observed extraction ratio was approximately 0.2.
aPTT: activated prothrombin thromboplastin time, CVVHF: continuous veno-veno hemofiltration, dTT: dilute thrombin time, ECA: ecarin clotting assay, FEIBA: factor eight inhibitor bypassing agent, INR: international normalized ratio, TT: thrombin time
•
Hemodialysis: Dabigatran pharmacokinetic studies exploring effects of hemo­dialysis used a single dose model and did not allow for tissue distribution and over-estimated removal within the first 2 hours. Longer periods of hemodialysis or even continuous renal replacement therapy may be necessary to remove dabigatran depending on initial serum concentrations.
•
The TT is a very sensitive test for presence of DTI such as dabigatran. A normal TT may suggest adequate loss of effect after holding or undergoing hemodialy sis. Availability of idarucizumab should limit the need for hemodialysis as line placement, etc., carries additional risks.
Anti-Factor Xa Antagonists—Potential Antidotes
•
The duration of oral anti-factor Xa antagonists’ effects can be days, especially in the setting of organ failure with diminished elimination and potential accumula tion to higher serum concentrations, or in the setting of an overdose.

•
Plasmapheresis has been successfully used in case reports (apixaban).
•
Additional antidotes are in development (see Chapter 8).
•
Initial studies currently available are primarily in non-urgent bleeding or non-bleeding settings.
•
Measuring intensity of anticoagulation: It is unclear what laboratory approaches can be used to determine the loss of anticoagulants effects sufficient enough to stop the antidote.
•
Andexanet Alfa is available (see Chapter 8). Dosing and amount of reversal may depend on the agent, time since the last dose, and level of anticoagulant effect present if elimination impaired or in an excessively anticoagulated setting. For use during surgical procedures with high bleeding risks, the andexanet alfa infusion may need to be continued during the period of bleeding risk, which could be longer than the 2 hours studied as the effects rapidly wear off after stopping the infusion.
31
Clinical Consideration: In the setting of administering an antidote, the effects of any anticoagulant neutralized will continue until the effects of the antidote wears off. If the same class of neutralized anticoagulant (e.g., heparin) must be emergently required (e.g., placing patient on extra corporeal life support [ECLS]), it may be difficult to establish and measure the necessary level of anticoagulation. If possible, delay the procedure until the effects of the antidote wear off or consider an anticoagulant that is not neutralized (see Tables 9-11 and 9-12).
• When using an antidote to reverse a DOAC, the amount reversed will depend on the concentration of drug in the plasma and tissues and the amount of antidote administered (molar ratio). High DOAC levels may not be fully reversed with approved antidote doses. Higher antidote doses may be necessary for full reversal. For dabigatran, 800–1000 ng/mL is reversed by 5 gm idarucizumab.
24
In the setting where complete dabigatran reversal is desired with an initial notably elevated INR prior to administration of a 5 gm idarucizumab dose, a follow up thrombin time may assist in determining any need for an additional dose.
• For andexanet alfa, the dose studied in clinical trials was agent dependent; however, patients with excessively high levels of apixaban may require a higher dose andexanet alfa for full reversal.
