Perioperative Anticoagulant Use for Surgery Evaluation -2 (PAUSE-2) Study Patients Receiving a Direct Oral Anticoagulant (DOACs-Dabigatran, Rivaroxaban, Apixaban or Edoxaban) and Needing Elective High-Bleed-Risk Surgery or an Invasive Procedure

Brief summary (registry, in English)

PAUSE 2 study is a prospective, open-label, blinded-endpoint non-inferiority RCT of PAUSE vs. ASRA management in DOAC treated high risk patients with AF/VTE who need elective high bleed risk surgery/procedure and/or any procedure involving neuraxial anesthesia. The purpose of the PAUSE 2 study is to show that PAUSE management will be as safe (i.e., non-inferior) as ASRA management, with 95% of patients having low/undetectable pre-operative DOAC levels \<30 ng/mL in each group., at the time of surgery/neuraxial.
