Abstract:
Antithrombotic therapy is a major cornerstone in the treatment for acute coronary syndromes, as thrombus formation upon a plaque rupture or an erosion plays a pivotal role in non-ST-segment elevation as well as ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes. Both acute and long-term oral antiplatelet therapies, targeting specific platelet activation pathways, have demonstrated significant short- and long-term benefits. The use of anticoagulants is currently largely confined to the acute setting, except in patients with a clear indication for long-term treatment, including atrial fibrillation or the presence of intraventricular thrombi. Despite the benefit of primary percutaneous coronary intervention in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, fibrinolysis continues to play an important role throughout the world as well. In this chapter, the fibrinolytic, antiplatelet, and anticoagulant agents used in the management of acute coronary syndrome patients are discussed.

Abstract:
Coagulation is best thought of using the cell-based model of coagulation. Patients commenced on heparin therapy should have their platelet count monitored early because of the risk of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, which can occur on any type or dose of heparin. Emergency reversal of warfarin should be with prothrombin complex concentrate (containing factors II, VII, IX, and X) and not fresh frozen plasma. New oral anticoagulants have the advantage of predictable pharmacokinetics and do not require routine monitoring, but optimal reversal strategies for these agents are not clear. Thrombolytic agents lead to variable degrees of systemic lysis, which may cause haemorrhage, including intracerebral haemorrhage

Abstract:
The anti-phospholipid syndrome (APS) described almost 30 years ago, is now recognized as a major cause of deep vein thrombosis, stroke, and heart attacks in young people (<45 years of age). It is also the commonest treatable cause of recurrent miscarriages and a major cause of late fetal death. Other clinical manifestations are cardiac valvular disease, livedo reticularis, renal thrombotic microangiopathy, thrombocytopenia, haemolytic anaemia, epilepsy, and cognitive impairment. The presence of anti-phospholipid antibodies (aPL) has been closely related to the development of thrombosis and complications in pregnancy. However, not all patients with aPL will develop the clinical features. Lupus anticoagulant is generally thought to be more strongly associated with the risk of clinical manifestations of APS than anticardiolipin and anti ?2-glycoprotein I antibodies. The exact pathogenic mechanisms leading to thrombosis and/or pregnancy morbidity are poorly understood. Therapy of thrombosis is based on long-term oral anti-coagulation and patients with arterial events should be treated aggressively. Obstetric care is based on combined medical-obstetric high-risk management and treatment with aspirin and heparin.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the diagnosis, risk stratification, and breadth of treatment options for pulmonary embolism (PE). It reviews the decision pathways based on degree of clinical suspicion of PE and assessing pre-test probability using the Geneva and Wells’ Score. It also reviews the Pulmonary Embolism Rule-out Criteria (PERC) and D-dimer with high negative predictive values. Imaging and cardiac biomarkers, which allow classification and risk stratification of PE, are discussed in how they guide management. Options for parenteral anticoagulation including bridging to novel oral anticoagulants or vitamin K antagonists for long term therapy are discussed, as well as clinical situations where systemic or catheter based thrombolysis should be considered. Hemodynamic support involving vasopressors are reviewed. The options for surgical embolectomy, as well as special cases including clot in transit, are discussed.

Abstract:
During the last decade, as a result of continually improving surgical strategy and the technology which supports it (e.g. anaesthesia), cardiac surgery is offered to patients with advanced age and those with increasingly complex co-existing conditions that were previously considered to be contraindications. In addition, an increasing number of patients have previously undergone angioplasty, thereby delaying their initial coronary artery bypass graft surgery to a more advanced age. In general, candidates for cardiac surgery may now be not only older than in the past, but also more likely to have health problems such as hypertension and diabetes. Risk stratification may help to identify ‘the’ high-risk patient: ‘pre-warned is pre-armed’. In high-risk cardiac surgery patients, the surgical treatment options and perioperative care must be tailored to each patient, in order to optimize the benefits and minimize the risk of detrimental effects. The preoperative anticoagulation practice is an important aspect, balancing the risk between ischaemic and bleeding complications. New antiplatelet agents and oral anticoagulants have been recently delivered, and their role in patients scheduled for heart surgery is an additional important issue.
