Limited studies have assessed the efficacy of vitamin K administration in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD). However, the results of this retrospective, single-center cohort study suggest that the administration of vitamin K in hospitalized patients with CLD may not have the intended benefit of reducing bleeding risk, as the change in international normalized ratio (INR) following vitamin K administration was minimal.
Limited studies assess the efficacy of vitamin K administration in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD). However, vitamin K is commonly used to treat elevations in international normalized ratio (INR) in these patients with the intended benefit of reducing bleeding risk. This retrospective, single-center cohort study aimed to evaluate the impact of vitamin K administration on INR in patients with CLD. Hospitalized patients >= 18 years of age with a diagnosis of CLD or cirrhosis and received vitamin K were included. The primary outcome was the absolute change in INR from baseline to 24 to 48 h after vitamin K administration. Secondary endpoints included subgroup analyses of the primary outcome by route of administration and single versus multidose administration, and incidence of in-hospital venous thromboembolism (VTE) or major bleeding. A total of eighty-five patients, primarily with Child-Pugh class C (76.5%), were included. Route of vitamin K administration included oral (PO) (72%) and intravenous (IV) (26%) with a mean daily dose of 8.5 +/- 2.3 mg. The absolute change in INR was -0.07 +/- -0.35 following vitamin K administration. There was no difference in absolute INR change between single versus multiple dose administration (-0.16 +/- -0.35 and -0.03 +/- -0.35; P= .13) or between PO versus IV administration (-0.06 +/- -0.23 and -0.18 +/- -0.48; P = .11). The incidences of in-hospital VTE and major bleeding were 2.4% and 3.5%, respectively. The administration of vitamin K in hospitalized patients with CLD resulted in minimal INR change, suggesting this intervention may not have the intended benefit of reducing bleeding risk.
