Safety and Efficacy of Periprocedural Anticoagulation With Enoxaparin in Patients Undergoing Peripheral Endovascular Revascularization

Abstract: We conclude that low-molecular-weight heparin either in a low-dose or high-dose regime during a peripheral EVR is safe concerning bleeding complications and acute reobstructions. The long-term follow-up showed no significant difference between our high- and low-risk groups concerning reobstruction. The periprocedural anticoagulation seems to have no influence on the long-term patency rate after peripheral EVR.

“…The use of Enoxaparin instead of unfractionated heparin is standard procedure in our department and seems to be safe with regards to complications of peripheral vascular interventions (26,27). Due to its superior handling in clinical routine as well as the avoidance of heparin induced thrombocytopenia type II, this procedure is generally accepted and did not influence our results.…”

“…Its anticoagulant properties and longer half-life make it applicable to peripheral arterial intervention, especially in the periprocedural setting. 25 There are no large-scale trials examining the use of LMWH for the prevention of restenosis or adverse events after arterial intervention. However, Duschek et al examined the use of enoxaparin periprocedurally in comparison to heparin in patients undergoing peripheral arterial interventions.…”
