Anticoagulation Treatment is a therapy used to prevent blood clots. In this trial, it is being studied to see if it is safe to continue this treatment during the removal of polyps from the colon, a procedure known as polypectomy. The goal is to determine if keeping patients on their regular anticoagulation medication is as safe as stopping it temporarily during the procedure.

Haemorrhage – Haemorrhage refers to the escape of blood from a ruptured blood vessel, which can occur internally or externally. It may result from injury, surgery, or certain medical conditions. The severity can range from minor to severe, depending on the location and amount of blood loss. In some cases, it can lead to symptoms like dizziness, weakness, or shock if not managed promptly. The body may attempt to stop the bleeding through clotting mechanisms, but medical intervention is often required to control significant haemorrhage.

Thromboembolic Events – Thromboembolic events occur when a blood clot forms in a blood vessel and subsequently travels to another part of the body, potentially causing blockages. These events can lead to conditions such as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. The formation of clots can be influenced by factors like immobility, certain medical conditions, or medications. Symptoms may vary depending on the location of the clot but can include pain, swelling, or difficulty breathing. The body’s natural clot-dissolving processes may address small clots, but larger ones often require medical attention.
