Aortic valve, mitral valve replacement mechanical valve, take warfarin anticoagulation
Condition Analysis:
Warfarin is a routine anticoagulant after heart valve replacement.Whether or not it is taken correctly directly affects the quality of life of patients after valve replacement.If overdosed, it can lead to bleeding, which can be life-threatening in severe cases.If underdosed, it may lead to thrombosis, valve dysfunction, or circulatory embolism, which may also be life-threatening.The duration of warfarin administration varies depending on the prosthetic valve material used in mitral valve replacement.Prosthetic mechanical valves require lifelong warfarin, whereas bioprosthetic valves typically require warfarin for six months.Both require regular monitoring of the international standardized ratio.In the case of atrial fibrillation, warfarin requires lifelong anticoagulation therapy.
Condition Analysis:
Hello, after the mechanical valve replacement of mitral valve and aortic valve, you generally need to take warfarin anticoagulation therapy for life, you need to regularly monitor the coagulation, the current international coagulation ratio of 1.84 ah, generally on this dose can be taken, regular review can be, the general international coagulation ratio control to 1.8 ~ 2.5 or so is possible.Wish you good health!
