Excessive Anticoagulation and Serious Bleeding With Prosthetic Valves[1]

Class IIa
"1. Administration of fresh frozen plasma or prothrombin complex concentrate is reasonable in patients with mechanical valves and uncontrollable bleeding who require reversal of anticoagulation (Level of Evidence: B)"

Prosthetic Valve Thrombosis

Diagnosis and Follow-up

Class I
"1. TTE is indicated in patients with suspected prosthetic valve thrombosis to assess hemodynamic severity and follow resolution of valve dysfunction.(Level of Evidence: B)"
"2. TEE is indicated in patients with suspected prosthetic valve thrombosis to assess thrombus size and valve motion(Level of Evidence: B)"
Class IIa
"1. Fluoroscopy or CT is reasonable in patients with suspected valve thrombosis to assess valve motion. (Level of Evidence: C)"

Medical Therapy

Class IIa
"1. Fibrinolytic therapy is reasonable for patients with a throm- bosed left-sided prosthetic heart valve, recent onset (<14 days) of NYHA class I to II symptoms, and a small thrombus (<0.8 cm2) (Level of Evidence: B)"
"2. Fibrinolytic therapy is reasonable for thrombosed right-sided prosthetic heart valves (Level of Evidence: B)"

Intervention

Class I
"1. Emergency surgery is recommended for patients with a throm- bosed left-sided prosthetic heart valve with NYHA class III to IV symptoms(Level of Evidence: B)"
Class IIa
"1. Emergencysurgeryisreasonableforpatientswithathrombosed left-sided prosthetic heart valve with a mobile or large thrombus (>0.8 cm2) (Level of Evidence: C)"
