DOI: 10.1097/jxx.0000000000000537
Abstract: ABSTRACT Background: Patients with mechanical heart valves (MHVs) require long-term oral anticoagulation therapy to protect against thromboembolisms. Invasive procedures with high bleeding risks require oral anticoagulation therapy cessation. Currently, guidelines recommend the use of either… read more here.
