![]() ![]() Arginine (Arg) in position 534 (old nomenclature 506) of the coagulation cofactor V is thus replaced by a glutamine (Glu). It results from the replacement of guanine by adenosine in position 1601 (old nomenclature 1691) of the F5 gene. Available data are encouraging, but given the variability in thrombosis risk within natural anticoagulant deficiencies, evidence in patients with well-characterized thrombophilia would be useful.įVL was first described in 1994. The place of DOACs in the treatment of VTE in thrombophilia patients is also discussed. The use of a device to remove DOACs should be considered to minimize the risk of false-negative results. Antithrombin activity and clot-based assays used for proteins C and S can be overestimated, with a risk of missing a deficiency. This paper reports DOAC interference in several thrombophilia tests, including the assessment of antithrombin, protein S, and protein C activities. Concerning inherited thrombophilia diagnosis, DOACs are directed toward either FIIa or FXa and can therefore interfere with coagulation assays. The widespread use of direct anticoagulants (DOACs) for VTE has raised new issues concerning inherited thrombophilia. Therefore, it is important to diagnose thrombophilia and to use adapted anticoagulant therapy. They are associated with a high thrombosis risk and can impact the duration of anticoagulation therapy for patients with a venous thromboembolism (VTE) event. Severe inherited thrombophilia includes rare deficiencies of natural anticoagulants (antithrombin and proteins C and S) and homozygous or combined factor V Leiden and FII G20210A variants. ![]()
