Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective, multicentric, randomized, open labeled superiority trial

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of oral activated charcoal for improving elimination of direct oral anticoagulants ( Rivaroxaban, Apixaban) in case of an unscheduled invasive procedure delayed to this anticoagulant treatment.

The primary outcome is the anticoagulant's half life. Plasma concentration will be measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for the main analysis (pharmacokinetic).

A total of 140 patients will randomly be assigned to the charcoal or control group, stratified according to their anticoagulant drug.
