Regional Anesthesia in Patients on Antithrombotic Drugs: ESAIC-ESRA 2022 Guidelines
Performing regional anesthesia (RA) in patients on antithrombotic therapy poses a significant challenge due to the increased risk of bleeding complications, including spinal or epidural hematomas.

The latest joint guidelines from the European Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) and the European Society of Regional Anesthesia (ESRA) provide evidence-based recommendations to reduce these risks and guide anesthetists in making safe and informed decisions.Where else to find us:Web-http://www.nysora.com Instagram-instagram.com/nysora.inc/ LinkedIN-linkedin.com/company/nysora-inc/ Facebook-facebook.com/nysora Twitter-x.com/nysora TikTok-tiktok.com/@nysora_inc---------------------------------------------------------#nysora#regionalanesthesia#anesthesiaDisclaimer: Medicine is an ever-changing science.
