Abstract

This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows: We aim to assess the efficacy of antifibrinolytic agents for preventing bleeding complications in people on oral anticoagulants undergoing oral or dental procedures. Secondary objectives are to assess if antifibrinolytic agents can eliminate the need for the discontinuation or a dose reduction of oral anticoagulants before and during oral or dental procedures.
