Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in Patients With Prothrombotic Conditions: THE ENDOHEM REGISTRY

Completed
Conditions
Anticoagulants; Circulating, Hemorrhagic Disorder
Cardiovascular Complication
Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
Interventions
Procedure: Gastrointestinal endoscopy
Registration Number
NCT03669068
Lead Sponsor
Hospital Universitario Ramon y Cajal
Brief Summary

This observational study evaluates the safety of gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients on oral anticoagulants (Vitamin K antagonists, rivaroxaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, and apixaban). This registry aims to assess the incidence, characteristics and risk factors for cardiovascular and bleeding events associated with an endoscopic procedure. Besides, it aims to evaluate the differences between Vitamin K antagonists and DOACs users and to estimate the impact of anticoagulation withdrawal time on the primary and secondary outcomes.
