==Background==
*Consider reversal of [[aspirin]] and [[clopidogrel]] in acute life threatening hemorrhage, primarily [[ICH]]<ref>Ohm C, Mina A, Howells G, et.al. Effects of antiplatelet agents on outcomes for elderly patients with
traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. J Trauma. 2005;58:518-22.</ref>
**Risk of mortality from ICH on [[warfarin]] ~16-80%
**Significantly higher mortality with either clopidogrel mono or dual-antiplatelet treatment in trauma patients<ref>Wong DK, Lurie F, Wong LL. The effects of clopidogrel on elderly traumatic brain injured patients. J
Trauma. 2008;65:1303-8.</ref>
**Aspirin alone is predictor of higher mortality in spontaneous ICH<ref>Saloheimo P, Ahonen M, Juvela S, et.al. Regular aspirin-use preceeding the onset of primary
intracerebral hermoorhage is an independent predictor for death. Stroke. 2006;37:129-33.</ref>
*Anti-platelet medications to reverse:
**[[Aspirin]]
**[[Clopidogrel]]
**[[Ticagrelor]]
**Ticlopidine (rarely used anymore)
*Prevalence of immediate traumatic ICH in pts on clopidogrel 12% compared to 5% on warfarin<ref>Nishijima DK et al. Immediate and delayed traumatic intracranial hemorrhage in patients with head trauma and preinjury warfarin or clopidogrel use. Ann Emerg Med. 2012 Jun;59(6):460-8.e1-7.</ref>
**May be confounded by pts on warfarin having low threshold for presenting with head injury to ED, but highlights high frequency of bleeds in pts on clopidogrel
**However, no pts on clopidogrel had delayed ICH compared to ~1% pts on warfarin with delayed ICH
**Delayed ICH defined as traumatic ICH within 2 wks after initial normal CTH
*Platelet aggregation recovery<ref>Li C et al. Reversal of the anti-platelet effects of aspirin and clopidogrel. J Thromb Haemost. 2012 Apr;10(4):521-8.</ref>:
**Within 4 days of stopping aspirin
**Takes 10 days for clopidogrel (life-span of a platelet)
***When starting clopidogrel, takes 7 days to achieve max platelet inhibition<ref>Vilahur G, Choi GB, Zafar MU et.al. Normalization of platelet reactivity in clopidogrel-treated subjects.
J Thromb Haemost. 1997;5:82-90.</ref>
***If 350mg loading dose, plt inhibition occurs within 2-5 hrs

==Reversal==
*If time permits, obtain initial platelet function assay for aspirin and clopidogrel
*Reversal with combination of platelet transfusion, [[desmopressin]]
*Limited evidence to support mortality improvement in reversal, but little evidence of harm<ref>Orlando Regional Medical Center. Department of Surgical Education. ANTIPLATLET AGENT REVERSAL IN ADULTS WITH TRAUMATIC INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGE. http://www.surgicalcriticalcare.net/Guidelines/TBI%20Antiplt%20Reversal%20Guideline%202012.pdf.</ref>
*Platelet transfusion volume:
**At least 5 units of platelets initially to reverse routine antiplatelet doses<ref>Powner DJ, Hartwell EA, Hoots WK, et.al. Counteracting the effects of anticoagulants oand
antiplatelet agents during neurosurgical emergencies. Neurosurgery. 2005; 57:823-31.</ref>
**Consider significantly more platelets for those who were loaded with clopidogrel within the last week<ref>Downey DM, Monsn B, Butler KL, et.al. Does platelet administration affect mortality in elderly headinjured
patients taking antiplatelet medications? Am Surg. 2009;75(11):1100-3.</ref>
*Desmopressin ([[DDAVP]])<ref>Hedges SJ, Dehoney SB, Hooper JS, et.al. Evidence-based treatment recommendations for uremic
bleeding. Nature Clin Prac. 2007;3(3):138-53.</ref>
**0.3 mcg/kg/dose in 50 cc NS over 30 min<ref>. Gratz I, Koehler J, Olsen D, et.al. The effect of desmopressin acetate on postoperative hemorrhage in
patients receiving aspirin therapy before coronary artery bypass operations. J Thorac Cardiovasc
Surg. 1992; 104:1417-22.</ref>
**Quick onset of action, within 1 hr
**Similar MOA to [[cryoprecipitate]] (increase factor VIII, vWF)
**No transfusion complications of cryoprecipitate
**However, effects only last up to 24 hrs, and tachyphylaxis limits efficacy repeated doses

==Special Circumstances==
*Chronic renal failure patients may benefit from:
**Desmopressin
**OR cryoprecipitate 1 unit 
**Conjugated estrogens IV 0.6 mg/kg/d for 5 days<ref>Livio M, Mannucci PM, Viganò G, et.al. Conjugated estrogens for the management of bleeding
associated with renal failure. N Engl J Med. 1986; 315:731-5.</ref>
**See [[uremic bleeding]]
*[[Ticagrelor]] does not likely respond to platelet transfusion reversal<ref>Martin AC et al. The effectiveness of platelet supplementation for the reversal of ticagrelor-induced inhibition of platelet aggregation: An in-vitro study. Eur J Anaesthesiol. 2016 May;33(5):361-7.</ref><ref>Godier A et al. Inefficacy of Platelet Transfusion to Reverse Ticagrelor. N Engl J Med 2015; 372:196-197.</ref>
