New atrial fibrillation diagnosed perioperatively-anticoagulation practices in a secondary hospital.
CONCLUSIONS: There is insufficient evidence and lack of clear guidelines in this area to enable consistent and evidence-based management of patients with new AF identified perioperatively. Until such guidelines are available we suggest all such patients are individually assessed and treated depending on their individual risk/benefit analysis. Multiple factors such as bleeding risk, CHA2DS2-VASc score and perhaps duration of AF need to be considered.

Is general practice identification of prior cardiovascular disease at the time of CVD risk assessment accurate and does it matter?
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, 39% of people with prior CVD hospitalisations were not recorded as having prior CVD when their CVD risk was first assessed in general practice. This was associated with inequities in evidence-based risk management. System-based measures are required for robust data sharing at the time of clinical decision making.

Mitral valve surgery with or without coronary bypass grafting: eight-year cohort study.
CONCLUSION: MVR+CABG compared to MVR patients had more comorbidities and greater operative risk, and were independently associated with higher operative mortality and composite morbidity, but not independently associated with higher long-term mortality.

Left ventricular thrombus after ST segment elevation myocardial infarction: a single-centre observational study.
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of LV thrombus following STEMI was low and it was associated with a low rate of stroke and systemic embolism but high mortality. Randomised studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of NOAC's in this context.

The changing use of anticoagulants in New Zealand
CONCLUSIONS: The introduction of the DOACs was expected to reduce the use of warfarin. However, the rapid rise in DOAC use was not predicted. The increase is most likely in patients with atrial fibrillation with the positive benefit of reducing the incidence of embolic stroke. However, having a high proportion of the elderly population (15% of people over 75-years) on anticoagulants has implications for the health sector, making hospital admissions and surgery more complex.PMID:35728215
