We present a 5-year-old boy with multiple hematomas associated with chronic cholestasis. A week before admission he suffered minor trauma at day care. The next day he complained of trunk and limb pain and orthopedic consultation, including leg x-rays, revealed no abnormalities. Over the next 5 days
BACKGROUND
Patients taking oral anticoagulants with an international normalized ratio (INR) greater than 4.0 are at increased risk for bleeding. We performed a meta-analysis to determine the effectiveness of phytonadione (vitamin K) in treating excessive anticoagulation.
METHODS
The MEDLINE, EMBASE,
OBJECTIVE
To compare the efficacy of managing excessive anticoagulation in the absence of bleeding by either omitting warfarin therapy alone or administering oral phytonadione in addition to omitting warfarin therapy.
METHODS
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
METHODS
Clinical
Phytonadione (vitamin K1) is FDA approved for anticoagulant-induced hypoprothrombinemia deficiency caused by coumarin or indanedione derivatives, hypoprothrombinemia due to antibacterial therapy, hypoprothrombinemia secondary to factors limiting absorption or synthesis of vitamin K, and other
Treatment strategies for acute toxicity following massive ingestion of warfarin are not well described in the literature. Warfarin is the primary oral anticoagulation agent used in the treatment of thromboembolic disease, and patients with acute toxicity are at risk for life-threatening hemorrhages.
The efficacy and safety of subcutaneous phytonadione in the treatment of patients with asymptomatic excessive International Normalized Ratio (INR) values secondary to warfarin therapy were evaluated. Patients at an outpatient anticoagulation clinic with an INR of 8 or more but less than 14 were
Successful vitamin K antagonist (eg, warfarin) reversal with 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC) without vitamin K (phytonadione) for emergent surgery in a patient at moderate-to-high risk for thromboembolism is reported. This approach may decrease the risk for development of thrombus,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the literature describing use of oral vitamin K(1) (phytonadione) to prevent late vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) in neonates when injectable vitamin K preparations are not available.
METHODS
Articles were retrieved through MEDLINE (1946-February 2012) using the terms
Prothrombin complex concentrates (PCCs) offer a means for the rapid reversal of warfarin, particularly in the setting of life-threatening bleeding. We evaluated the effectiveness and safety of a PCC-based protocol in patients with warfarin-associated intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), subdural hematoma
OBJECTIVE
To compare the safety and effectiveness of three methods of reversing coagulopathic effects of warfarin in patients with potentially life-threatening intracranial hemorrhage.
METHODS
A retrospective electronic medical record review of 63 patients with warfarin-related intracranial
BACKGROUND
Treatment of patients with excessive anticoagulation is routinely done by intravenous phytonadione (vitamin K1). Oral administration of phytonadione has been shown to be an effective alternative to the intravenous route, but these methods have never been compared directly. Our objective
OBJECTIVE
To determine the safety and efficacy of intravenously administered phytonadione (vitamin K1) in patients on routine oral warfarin anticoagulation.
METHODS
This retrospective cohort study comprised adults who were taking warfarin, were not bleeding, and received intravenous phytonadione
BACKGROUND
Excessive anticoagulation increases the risk of hemorrhagic complications associated with oral anticoagulant therapy. Oral or parenteral phytonadione is used to reverse excessive anticoagulation. Intravenous (IV) phytonadione, while effective, is associated with a small risk of serious
Two cases of intracerebral hemorrhage in patients with prosthetic heart valves receiving anticoagulant therapy without preceding embolic cerebral infarction are reported. Phytonadione and fresh frozen plasma were immediately given, and the intracerebral hematoma evacuated successfully. In one case,
