Restart DOAC within 7 days of clinical hemostasis after GI bleeding
In patients at high thrombotic risk, DOACs will be resumed within 7 days of clinical hemostasis (as judged by the clinical team). High thrombotic risk includes the following: (i) Atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter with CHA2DS2VASc score of 5 or higher (ii) Atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter with CHA2DS2VASc score or 3 to 4 with recent ischemic stroke, TIA or systemic embolism (within 6 months) (iii) VTE (proximal DVT or PE) within 3 months (iv) Recurrent VTE (proximal DVT or PE) (v) VTE (proximal DVT or PE) associated with antiphospholipid syndrome (if eligible for DOAC) (vi) VTE (proximal DVT or PE) associated with active non-GI cancer (vii) None of the above but considered high thrombotic risk as per investigator

Restart DOAC between 7 to 14 days of clinical hemostasis after GI bleeding
In patients at moderate thrombotic risk, DOACs will be resumed between 7 and 14 days of clinical hemostasis (as judged by the clinical team). Moderate thrombotic risk includes the following: (i) Atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter with CHA2DS2VASc score of 3 to 4 (ii) VTE (proximal DVT or PE) beyond 3 months The type and dose of DOAC will be according to patient and physician choice and will be prescribed by the clinical care team.

About This Trial
PANTHER-GI Pilot Study will assess the feasibility of a full-scale multicentre cohort management study evaluating the safety of a standardized strategy for resuming direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) after major DOAC-related gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding among patients at moderate to high risk of re-bleeding and thrombosis. A parallel registry will assess whether eligible patients who are not enrolled in the PANTHER-GI Pilot Study are systematically different than enrolled patients and to explore barriers to enrolment.
