Abstract 160: Impact of Medication Adherence on Risk of Stroke, Major Bleeding and Other Outcomes in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Using Novel Oral Anticoagulants (Dabigatran and Rivaroxaban) Session Title: Poster Session II
Conclusion: In our sample, adherence to NOACs was associated with a reduction in stroke and DVTPE risk but did not substantially increase bleeding risk. Further studies with newer NOACs are warranted.

Factors associated with non –vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants for stroke prevention in patients with new-onset atrial fibrillation: Results from the Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation II (ORBIT-AF II)
Conclusions In contemporary clinical practice, up to three-fourths of patients with new-onset AF are now initially treated with a NOAC for stroke prevention. Those selected for NOAC treatment had lower stroke and bleeding risk profiles, were more likely treated by cardiologists, and had higher socioeconomic status.

Outcomes of Endovascular Thrombectomy with and without Thrombolysis for Acute Large Artery Ischaemic Stroke at a Tertiary Stroke Centre
Conclusion: Our study highlights the relatively large proportion of patients suitable for EVT who have a contraindication to alteplase and raises the hypothesis that adding alteplase to successful EVT may not be necessary to optimize functional outcome. The results are consistent with observational data from other endovascular centres and support a randomised controlled trial of EVT versus EVT with bridging alteplase.Cerebrovasc Dis Extra 2017;7:95 –102

Risk of stroke/systemic embolism, major bleeding and associated costs in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients who initiated apixaban, dabigatran, or rivaroxaban compared with warfarin in the United States Medicare population.
CONCLUSIONS: Among the DOACs in the study, only apixaban is associated with a significantly lower risk of stroke/SE and major bleeding and lower related medical costs compared to warfarin. PMID: 28635338 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Alcohol-related hospitalization is associated with increased risk of ischaemic stroke among low-risk patients with atrial fibrillation
ConclusionThe presence of a previous hospitalization with an alcohol-related disease was associated with a small but significant increase in the risk of stroke among low-risk AF patients. More research about relation between alcohol use and ischaemic stroke in AF patients is warranted.

Patent Foramen Ovale and Cryptogenic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: To Close or Not to Close? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the device closure (DC) versus the medical therapy (MT) in patients with cryptogenic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) and PFO.Summary: Randomized controlled trials with active and control groups receiving the DC plus MT and MT alone in patients with history of cryptogenic stroke/TIA and diagnosis of PFO were systematically searched. The main efficacy outcome was stroke recurrence. Subgroup-analyses were performed according to age, shunt size, and presence of atrial septal aneurysm (ASA). Safety endpoints included any serious adverse event (SAE), atria...

The importance of atrial fibrillation and selected echocardiographic parameters for the effectiveness and safety of thrombolytic therapy in patients with stroke
ConclusionsThe presence of atrial fibrillation worsens the patient's prognosis in terms of the functional status and survival during the acute period of stroke in patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis.Higher NIHSS and CHA2DS2VASc scores and reduced EF in patients with stroke treated with thrombolysis are the predictors of unfavorable short-term prognosis.

XANTUS-EL: A real-world, prospective, observational study of patients treated with rivaroxaban for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation in Eastern Europe, Middle East, Africa and Latin America
ConclusionsXANTUS-EL confirmed low stroke and major bleeding rates in patients with NVAF from EEMEA and Latin America. The population was younger but with more heart failure and hypertension than XANTUS; stroke/SE rate was similar but major bleeding lower.

Association Between Patient and Physician Sex and Physician-Estimated Stroke and Bleeding Risks in Atrial Fibrillation
ConclusionsOur study is the first to examine the association between patient and physician sex influences and stroke and bleeding risk estimation in AF. While there were differences in agreement between physician estimated stroke risk and calculated CHADS2 scores, these differences were small and unlikely to impact clinical practice; further, despite any perceived differences in the accuracy of risk assessment by sex, most patients received anticoagulation.

Combination Therapy with Dipyridamole and Clopidogrel for Secondary Stroke Prevention in Aspirin-Intolerant Patients After Myocardial Infarction: Results of a Nationwide Case-Control Study
ConclusionNo differences were observed in the 12-year survival rate between clopidogrel and clopidogrel –dipyridamole groups. The two groups had balanced event-free survival in recurrent stroke, ICH, GI bleeding, and myocardial infarction.

Left atrial appendage occlusion for stroke despite oral anticoagulation (resistant stroke). Results from the Amplatzer Cardiac Plug registry
ConclusionsPatients with RS undergoing LAAO showed similar safety outcomes to patients without RS, with a significant reduction in stroke/transient ischemic attack and major bleeding events during follow-up. Adequately powered controlled trials are needed to further investigate the use of LAAO in RS patients.ResumenIntroducción y objetivosA pesar de la eficacia de los anticoagulantes orales (ACO), algunos pacientes mantienen una alto riesgo residual y presentan ictus aun estando en tratamiento con ACO, y falta evidencia sobre el tratamiento de estos pacientes. El objetivo del estudio es analizar la seguridad y la eficacia...

Early Secondary Prevention in Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) and Minor Stroke
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe purpose of this study was to review recent literature on the early secondary prevention in transient ischemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke.Recent FindingsThe result of Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events and the secondary analysis of Platelet-Oriented Inhibition in New TIA and Minor Ischemic Stroke (POINT) have shown that treatment with clopidogrel and aspirin for 21  days reduced the risk of recurrent stroke with no significant increase in bleeding risk. Triple antiplatelet therapy with aspirin, clopidogrel, and dipyridamole resulted in a signific...
