With the novel oral anticoagulants, including EDOXABAN-DABIGATRANRIVAROXABAN- APIXABAN, we are entering a new era of anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation (AF) (and deep vein thrombosis). Nevertheless, at the time, the lack of a reversal agent is an important limitation with these agents, especially in case of major hemorrhage or the need to perform emergency invasive procedures.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of this trial addresses the potential of intravenous protamine to reverse the anticoagulant effect of heparin and: Obtain improved local haemostasis after radial arterial sheet (5french) removal in stable cardiac patients undergoing a diagnostic coronary angiogram ('bleeding time').;Secondary Objective: Measurements of standard laboratory markers of anticoagulation will be used as evidence of reversal;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy end point is the time to hemostasis at the radial artery puncture site after arterial sheath removal (dichotomized per 15 minutes).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4 timepoints 15-30-60 minutes and 6 hours post randomization | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Laboratory evidence of reversal of systemic anticoagulation expressed by measurements of standard laboratory markers [6* (2*4,5ml)= 54ml citrated blood].;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4 timepoints 15-30-60 minutes and 6 hours post randomization | — |
