Pre-treatment clinical assessment in head and neck cancer: United Kingdom National Multidisciplinary Guidelines.
Authors: Robson A, Sturman J, Williamson P, Conboy P, Penney S, Wood H Abstract This is the official guideline endorsed by the specialty associations involved in the care of head and neck cancer patients in the UK. This paper provides recommendations on the pre-treatment clinical assessment of patients presenting with head and neck cancer. Recommendations • Comorbidity data should be collected as it is important in the analysis of survival, quality of life and functional outcomes after treatment as well as for comparing results of different treatment regimens and different centres. (R) • Patients with hypertens...

Choosing Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants: Practical Considerations We Need to Know.
CONCLUSION: NOACs provide a convenient and safe alternative to warfarin and may result in improved therapeutic outcomes for patients with NVAF or VTE. The use of NOACs in other indications and patient populations is under investigation, and clinical trials investigating their use in acute coronary syndrome, medically ill patients, percutaneous coronary intervention, cardioversion, catheter ablation, coronary arterial disease, and heart failure have been announced.

Antithrombotic therapy in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: should we change our practice after the PIONEER AF-PCI and RE-DUAL PCI trials?
AbstractThe number of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is increasing. Since these patients have a CHA2DS2-VASc score of 1 or higher, they should be treated with oral anticoagulation to prevent stroke. However, combination therapy with oral anticoagulation for prevention of embolic stroke and dual platelet inhibition for prevention of coronary thrombosis significantly increases bleeding complications. The optimal combination, intensity and duration of antithrombotic combination therapy is still not known. In the rather small randomized WOEST trial, the combination of a vi...

Safety and Efficacy of Triple Antithrombotic Therapy with Dabigatran versus Vitamin K Antagonist in Atrial Fibrillation Patients: A Pilot Study.
Conclusion: Dabigatran at the dose used for stroke prevention appears safer than VKA and maintains a similar efficacy profile, when used with DAPT, in AF patients who have undergone PCI with stenting for ACS. PMID: 30895193 [PubMed - in process]

Utilization of triple antithrombotic therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
ConclusionsThe utilization of TAT following PCI among high-stroke risk AF patients steadily increased from 2011 to 2020, reaching 65.4% by the end of the study period. However, in 2020, a significant proportion of 29.4% of patients still received DAPT, indicating that many AF patients undergoing PCI did not receive adequate antithrombotic therapy.

Unanswered Questions in Patients With Concurrent Atrial Fibrillation and Acute Coronary Syndrome
In conclusion, until the results of additional ongoing or planned randomized trials are known, clinicians must continue to rely on expert opinion and their own clinical judgment when treating these patients.

Triple Therapy for Atrial Fibrillation and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention A Contemporary Review
Chronic oral anticoagulant therapy is recommended (class I) in patients with mechanical heart valves and in patients with atrial fibrillation with a CHA2DS2-VASc (Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age ≥75 years, Diabetes mellitus, prior Stroke or transient ischemic attack or thromboembolism, Vascular disease, Age 65 to 74 years, Sex category) score ≥1. When these patients undergo percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting, treatment with aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor also becomes indicated. Before 2014, guidelines recommended the use of triple therapy (vitamin K antagonists, aspirin, and clopidog...

Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of an Edoxaban-based Antithrombotic Regimen in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Following Successful Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) with Stent Placement: Rationale and Design of the ENTRUST-AF PCI Trial
Publication date: Available online 23 October 2017 Source:American Heart Journal Author(s): Pascal Vranckx, Thorsten Lewalter, Marco Valgimigli, Jan G. Tijssen, Paul-Egbert Reimitz, Lars Eckardt, Hans-Joachim Lanz, Wolfgang Zierhut, Rüdiger Smolnik, Andreas Goette Background The optimal antithrombotic treatment after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. In the ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 trial, edoxaban was non-inferior to a vitamin-K antagonist (VKA) with respect to the prevention of stroke or systemic embolism and was associated with significantly lower rate...

Integrative medicine on optimizing clopidogrel and aspirin therapy
This article reviews the available published data on optimizing clopidogrel and aspirin therapy using translational and integrative medicine. Translational and evidence-based medical studies show that theCYP2C19 gene mutation (CYP2C19*2 andCYP2C19*3) could affect> 50% of the Chinese population, and that this mutation is closely associated with clopidogrel resistance and an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, particularly stent thrombosis in patients following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Adjusted-dose warfarin and aspirin reduce stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and warfar...

An Open-label, 2 x 2 Factorial, Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety of Apixaban vs. Vitamin K Antagonist and Aspirin vs. Placebo in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Acute Coronary Syndrome and/or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Rationale and Design of the AUGUSTUS Trial

Goodman, Roxana Mehran, Stephan Windecker, John H. Alexander The optimal antithrombotic strategy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who develop acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or the need for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is uncertain. The risk of bleeding is a major concern when oral anticoagulation is required to prevent stroke and concomitant therapy with antiplatelet agents is required to minimize recurrent ischemic even...

Oral Anticoagulants With Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Versus Clopidogrel in Patients After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: In patients who are on OAC with vitamin K antagonist and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, no significant differences were found in mortality, ischemic, and hemorrhagic complications between the patients treated with TT and DT. Thus, tailored treatment based on individual thromboembolic and bleeding risk might be the most reasonable approach in these patients.
