A cross-sectional study on the incidence of prosthetic valve thrombosis and its outcome treated with fibrinolysis in a tertiary care hospital

In conclusion this study sheds light on the complexities and challenges associated with prosthetic valve thrombosis in pregnant patients, patients with sub therapeutic anticoagulation or poor drug consumers. This study underscores the importance of close monitoring, optimal anticoagulation, patient education. This study highlights that fibrinolysis unless contraindicated can be considered as effective especially in developing countries or in centres with limited resources, where multiple factors such as surgical availability, financial cost, high operative mortality are to be weighed before treatment.
