Sponsor: Erasmus Medical Center
Conditions: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Interventions: activated partial thrombin time
Countries: Netherlands
Rationale: The choice of antithrombotic regimen during TAVI and CTO PCI includes the use of unfractionated heparin. The accuracy of ACT in this setting is disputed. ACT has never been compared to a point-of-care aPTT test for monitoring anticoagulation during percutaneous cardiac interventions. Objective: The aim of the present study is to evaluate which point-of-care test (ACT or aPTT) gives the best correlation with the coagulation status in patients, defined with the anti-Xa measurement. Study design: A Single-center, prospective, observational study Study population: patients undergoing TAVI (Cohort A) or CTO PCI (Cohort B) in the Erasmus University Medical Center Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study endpoints are the correlation between the ACT and APTT point-of-care- tests and the coagulation status, defined as the laboratory anti-Xa measurement.
