Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Patients on Chronic Dialysis and Concomitant Atrial Fibrillation: A Common Clinical Impasse
Front Biosci (Schol Ed). 2022 Jul 21;14(3):21. doi: 10.31083/j.fbs1403021.ABSTRACTThe most frequent arrhythmia treated is atrial fibrillation (AF), which necessitates the use of oral anticoagulants (OACs) to reduce the risk of thromboembolism and stroke. Patients with chronic kidney disease are more likely to develop AF, with a 10% frequency among those on chronic dialysis. Warfarin is the most widely prescribed OAC for individuals with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). On the other hand, direct OACs (DOACs) are generally safer than warfarin, with fewer fatal bleeding events and a fixed dose that does not require close inte...

Initial report of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure in hemodialysis patients with atrial fibrillation and high risk of bleeding in Japan
AbstractIn the countries like Japan where anticoagulation is not recommended in hemodialysis patients, the feasibility of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) in hemodialysis patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) accompanying high risks of thromboembolic stroke and bleeding remains unknown. Peri-procedural and 45-day clinical outcomes following LAAC using WATCHMAN system, which were performed in our institute between Jun 2020 and April 2022 according to the Japanese Circulation Society guidelines, were retrospectively compared between those with and without hemodialysis. 118 patients (median 79...
