Effects of a Pharmacist-Led Educational Interventional Program on Electronic Monitoring-Assessed Adherence to Direct Oral Anticoagulants: A Randomized, Controlled Trial in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation
In this study, the selection of DOACs was not randomized, and the lack of assessment of the association between adherence to DOACs and clinical outcomes was a limitation. Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCT) indentifier: jRCTs031180142. (Clin Ther. 2022;44:XXX-XXX) © 2022 Elsevier Inc.PMID:36244853 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinthera.2022.09.011

Causes of Death in Elderly Patients With Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation  - Results From the ANAFIE Registry
CONCLUSIONS: This subanalysis described the mortality according to causes of death of Japanese elderly NVAF patients in the DOAC era. Our results imply that a more holistic approach to comorbid conditions and stroke prevention are required in these patients.PMID:36653127 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-22-0614

Increased major bleeding incidence in atrial fibrillation patients with apixaban: a review of Japanese post-marketing surveillance studies of direct oral anticoagulants
AbstractLarge-scaled post-marketing surveillance studies (PMSSs) of 4 direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for stroke prevention in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) were conducted since 2011 in Japan, and the results of the last one have recently been published. Each reported a more than acceptable ischemic stroke prevention. The major bleeding rates were also acceptably low and comparable to each other in the PMSSs of dabigatran (J-dabigatran), rivaroxaban (XAPASS), and edoxaban (ETNA-AF-Japan). However, the incidence in PMSS of apixaban (STANDARD) was more than double the others. This finding appeared to contradict th...

Frailty and subsequent adverse outcomes in older patients with atrial fibrillation treated with oral anticoagulants: The Shizuoka study
CONCLUSION: Patients with frailty in whom OAC therapy is initiated have higher risk of bleeding, highlighting the importance of discussing this increased risk with patients with AF who have frailty and assessing frailty at the time of OAC initiation.PMID:37168397 | PMC:PMC10165150 | DOI:10.1016/j.rpth.2023.100129

A cost-effectiveness analysis of remote monitoring after pacemaker implantation for bradycardia in Japan
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that RM can be a cost-effective option for Japanese patients, especially those with high CHADS2 scores and long-term intervals between office visits.PMID:37343930 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.06.003

Biotronik launches Itrevia MRI-safe quad CRT-D in Japan
Biotronik said today that it launched its Itrevia MRI-safe quad cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator in Japan, part of a Japanese rollout of new devices for 2015. The device is equipped with home monitoring connectivity, as well as compatibility with up to 1.5 tesla MRI machines, the German medical device giant said. “As a producer of superior medical technologies, it is imperative for us to have a presence in the world’s leading technologies market. It also makes sense that the world’s biggest producer of ProMRI technology should have a strong presence in the country where MRI scanning is the...

Comparison of the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc and R2CHADS2 Scores in Japanese Patients with Non-valvular Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Not Receiving Anticoagulation Therapy.
Conclusion In Japanese patients with PNVAF, the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and R2CHADS2 scores are all useful for the risk stratification of IS/SE cases. PMID: 28943575 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
