Postpartum prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism with anticoagulation: A case report

Abstract: Although there is a remarkably high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) during pregnancy and postpartum, a cautious approach is needed while initiating therapeutic and prophylactic anticoagulant therapy. The merits of heparin for thromboprophylaxis in postpartum patients are exaggerated, and its risk is generally overlooked. This study aimed to report the inappropriate use of anticoagulants in postpartum patients. The patient in this report was a 31-year-old healthy woman who had had a normal spontaneous vagi… Show more

“…However, data supporting the optimal risk threshold at which thromboprophylaxis should be instituted, along with the optimal duration of anticoagulation are lacking, despite how commonly VTE risk factors in the postpartum period arise. As a broad principle, the benefit of pharmacological VTE prophylaxis should outweigh the risk of bleeding and other fetal complications ( 100 ). Completing each woman’s VTE risk assessment is crucial, particularly in the setting of pre-eclampsia as there is also a proven associated competing hemorrhagic risk.…”

“…Segundo Solari & Varacalo (2022), o risco principal do uso de HBPM é sangramento, os efeitoshema adversos mais comuns são hematoma local e irritação no local de aplicação, outros efeitos adversos menos comuns foram observados, que incluem: fraturas espontâneas, osteoporose, hipoaldosteronismo e raramente ocorrem reações de hipersensibilidade, além de causar reações alérgicas, como trombocitopenia induzida pela heparina, reações anafiláticas imediatas e reações cutâneas de hipersensibilidade tardia (Mohzari et al, 2021). Jacobson et al (2020), demonstraram que quando realizado terapia medicamentosa com HPBM, o risco de malformação congênita foi baixo, não houve um risco aumentado de mortalidade perinatal e nem risco de baixo peso no recém-nascido.…”

“…Para Mohzari et al (2021), o histórico pessoal de trombose é um fator importante para o desenvolvimento de TEV durante a gravidez, sendo que aproximadamente 20% a 50% das mulheres já apresentavam histórico de trombofilia, que não é uma doença em si, refere-se a distúrbios associados ao estado de hipercoagulabilidade persistente, um fator de predisposição e que contribui para mais da metade dos eventos tromboembólicos durante o período gestacional.…”
