Effect of Acenocoumarol amongst Patients Who Have Undergone Prosthetic Valve Replacement
Abstract: Background: There is a increased risk of thromboembolism in patients with mechanical prosthetic heart valves (MPHV). To reduce the incidence a long term anticoagulant is administered post surgery. As sex based di?erence in these patients is not clear this study was done to study the efficacy of the oral anticoagulant and the sex based di?erence in the patients with MPHV. Methodology: It is a Pre and post-intervention study conducted in the Institute of Cardiovascular and Thoracic surgery, in a tertiary care centre from January 2021 to January 2022. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria the sample size recruited during the study time is 100. Demographic details were got from the patient information sheet. ESR and PT INR were done before surgery, after surgery and at the time of discharge. Data was entered in MS Excel 10. Statistical analysis was done in SPSS 23. Continuous data were expressed in terms of Mean?Standard deviation and Categorical variable were expressed in terms of numbers (percentages). P-value of
