Popis: Background Although enoxaparin 0.5 mg/kg is a recommended anticoagulation regimen for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a randomized study demonstrated that more patients receiving enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg compared to those receiving 0.5 mg/kg achieved therapeutic anticoagulation without increase of major bleeding. However, no detailed data regarding the anticoagulation profile of enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg was reported in the study. Purpose This study prospectively assessed the anticoagulation profile of enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg vs. 0.5 mg/kg in troponin-negative patients undergoing elective trans-radial coronary angiography (CAG). Methods Eligible patients were randomly assigned to the Planned Single-dose group (0.75 mg/kg) or the Planned Staged-dose group (0.5±0.25 mg/kg). In the Planned Single-dose group, all patients received enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg before CAG irrespective of their indication for subsequent PCI. In the Planned Staged-dose group, enoxaparin 0.5 mg/kg was administered to all patients before CAG and additional 0.25 mg/kg was given only to those undergoing subsequent PCI immediately before PCI. Patients without indication for subsequent PCI in each group were defined as High-dose (0.75 mg/kg) and Standard-dose (0.5 mg/kg) groups, respectively. Anti-Xa levels were assessed at 0 min (immediately before), 10 min, and 90 min after enoxaparin administration. Therapeutic anticoagulation was defined as anti-Xa level of 0.5–1.8 IU/ml. Bleeding was according to the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) criteria. Results In 170 randomized patients, 48 of 85 patients in the Planned Single-dose group and 47 of 85 patients in the Planned Staged-dose group were included in the High-dose and Standard-dose groups, respectively. The baseline characteristics were well balanced between the two groups. The anti-Xa levels were higher in the High-dose vs. Standard-dose group both at 10 min (1.354±0.228 IU/ml vs. 0.976±0.213 IU/ml, p Conclusions Enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg compared to 0.5 mg/kg provided higher anticoagulation which was adequate for up to 90 min of administration. Enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg would be a superior anticoagulation regimen for PCI, especially when the procedure duration is long. Figure 1.
