Perioperative Risk

Antiplatelet management in the perioperative
period

How to Determine Risk of MACE
 Low risk (<1%)
 Increased risk ( > 1%)

211,410 + 257,385 = 468,795 patients

Patient
 Age: 85
 Cr: > 1.5
 ASA Class: III (severe systemic disease)
 Functional: Independent
 Surgery: Intestinal
 Risk probability for perioperative MI or cardiac
arrest: 2.3%

Risk predictors
4315 + 1422 = 5737 patients
High risk OR
Hx CAD
Hx CHF
Cerebrovasc dx
Diabetic insulin
Cr > 2

Revised Cardiac Index
 High risk surgery: intraperitoneal
 CAD: prior MI
 CHF: No
 Cerebrovascular disease: No
 Diabetes on insulin: Yes
 Serum creatinine > 2mg/dl: Yes
 Risk of MI, pulmonary edema, ventricular
fibrillation, cardiac arrest, complete heart block:
> 11%

Perioperative Risk
 Risk of major cardiac event or death: 2.3 - > 11%
 Risk of not performing the surgery:



Continued GI bleed
Cancer growth
Bowel obstruction

Stent
 Bleeding risk vs stent thrombosis
 Second generation DES since 2008

Less stent thrombosis

ACC AHA 2014 Guideline
Delay elective surgery after stent
 Balloon angioplasty without stent: 14 days
 Bare metal stent: 30 days
 Drug eluting stent: 365 days
 Drug eluting stent: 180 days

If risk of delaying surgery is greater than the risk of stent
thrombosis – myocardial ischemia consider NCS after
180 days

European Society of Cardiology 2014 Guideline
Delay elective surgery after stent
 Bare metal stent: 4 week minimum, 3 months ideal
 Drug eluting stent (new generation): 6 months
A
minimum of 3 months might be acceptable

Risk of MI or need for coronary revascularization
 VA retrospective – older men
 Stents placed 2000 - 2010
 Risk highest (3.5%) immediately after stent
 Risk stabilizes (1.0%) at 6 months post stent
 Especially true for drug eluting stent

Perioperative Cardiovascular Risk
 NSQIP database
 Mayo Clinic
 1120 patients with stents then NCS
2006 to 2011
 Risk of major adverse cardiac event and bleeding elevated
for 1 year post stent

Time to stent thrombosis
Stop ASA, stop
thienopyridine
Median 7 days
Continue ASA, stop
thienopyridine
Median 122 days (6% within
10 d)

85-year-old man
right colectomy
 Continue aspirin
 Discontinue clopidogrel 5 days preop
 Resume clopidogrel asap postop
 Loading dose 300mg
 Heightened surveillance for postop stent
thrombosis

85-year-old man
right colectomy
 Don’t forget other agents to decrease risk
 Statin
 Continue
beta blocker
 His anemia at time of NSTEMI should have raised
concern about drug eluting stent committing him to
long term asa + clopidogrel
