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.

ANTICOAGULATION REVERSAL: PART II 209

•
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.
