Epidural Hematoma Following Cessation of a Direct Oral Anticoagulant: A Case Report
Conclusions Guidelines for cessation of DOACs prior to neuraxial techniques are based on pharmacologic half-lives rather than accumulated experience. This case adds to the experience of neuraxial analgesia complications while following these guidelines. Patient risk may be increased by the combination of recent cessation of a DOAC, as well as the cumulative effect of multiple small risk factors. Continued vigilance and reporting of cases of epidural hematomas will enhance our understanding and ultimately improve patient care. Elderly patients and/or patients with prior neurological deficits may present further challenges...

Epidural Hematoma Following Interlaminar Epidural Injection in Patient Taking Aspirin
Conclusions For patients taking aspirin for primary or secondary prophylaxis, the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine antiplatelet and anticoagulation guidelines for spine and pain procedures recommend a shared assessment and risk stratification when deciding to hold the medication for intermediate-risk neuraxial procedures. Cases such as this serve to highlight the importance of giving careful consideration to medical optimization of a patient even when a low- or intermediate-risk procedure is planned.

Interventional Spine and Pain Procedures in Patients on Antiplatelet and Anticoagulant Medications (Second Edition): Guidelines From the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, the European Society of Regional Anaesthesia and Pain Therapy, the American Academy of Pain Medicine, the International Neuromodulation Society, the North American Neuromodulation Society, and the World Institute of Pain
The American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA) 2012 survey of meeting attendees showed that existing ASRA anticoagulation guidelines for regional anesthesia were insufficient for their needs. Those surveyed agreed that procedure-specific and patient-specific factors required separate guidelines for pain and spine procedures. In response, a guidelines committee was formed. After preliminary review of published complications reports and studies, the committee stratified interventional spine and pain procedures according to potential bleeding risk: low-, intermediate-, and high-risk procedures. The ASRA ...
