🗑
mechanical valve on warfarin in the aortic position and without additional risk factors - what is the pre-procedural anticoagulation recommendation?   show
🗑
show include afib, >1 mechanical valve, ejection fraction <30%, a hypercoagulable state, and previous thromboembolic event, including stroke or transient ischemic attack  
🗑
what is the recommendation for pre-procedural anticoagulation for patients with a mechanical valve and an increased risk of a thromboembolic event   show
🗑

🗑
show activated protein C resistance, factor V Leiden, the prothrombin gene mutation, antiphospholipid antibodies, a lupus inhibitor, antithrombin deficiency, protein C deficiency, and protein S deficiency  
🗑

🗑

🗑

🗑
