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...

Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation
AbstractPurpose of ReviewAtrial fibrillation is associated with a significant increase in stroke and systemic embolism. This review explores the areas of stroke prevention.Recent FindingsIn the last decade, NOAC has overtaken warfarin as the anticoagulant of choice for stroke prevention in AF. For patients unable to take anticoagulation, LAA closure has proven to be a valid option. The use of digital devices has led to widespread consumer-directed AF screening. It remains to be determined if all device detect AF pose the same amount of risk as recent studies have shown that short and infrequent episodes of AF may not benef...

Long-term outcome and risk factors associated with events in patients with atrial fibrillation treated with oral anticoagulants: The ASSAF-K registry
CONCLUSIONS: This multi-center registry demonstrated the long-term outcome in patients with AF treated with and without OACs and suggests that DOAC therapy is safe and beneficial in hospitals and clinics.PMID:36109256 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2022.08.012

A systematic review of the efficacy and safety of anticoagulants in advanced chronic kidney disease
CONCLUSION: Further studies are still required, some ongoing, in patients with advanced CKD (CrCl < 30 ml/min) to identify the safest and most effective treatment options for VTE and AF.PMID:36006608 | DOI:10.1007/s40620-022-01413-x

Bleeding events in the emergency department with warfarin versus novel oral anticoagulants: A five-year analysis
Conclusion: Our findings indicate that rates of major and minor bleeding complications in patients taking NOACs are similar to those in patients taking warfarin. While warfarin was associated with fewer complications than NOACs in terms of gastrointestinal bleeding, the risk of intracranial bleeding, was similar between the groups.

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Versus Oral Anticoagulation in Atrial Fibrillation : A Decision Analysis
CONCLUSION: Although LAAO could be an alternative to anticoagulants for stroke prevention in patients with AF and high bleeding risk, the overall benefit from LAAO depends on the combination of stroke and bleeding risks in individual patients. These results suggest the need for a sufficiently low stroke risk for LAAO to be beneficial. The authors believe that these results could improve shared decision making when selecting patients for LAAO.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: None.PMID:35969865 | DOI:10.7326/M21-4653

Direct oral anticoagulants versus warfarin in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
CONCLUSION: DOACs were associated with higher rates of arterial thrombosis than warfarin in patients with APS, especially in the triple-positive group. However, a higher risk of recurrent venous thrombosis was not found in APS patients treated with DOACs compared to those treated with warfarin.PMID:35968627 | DOI:10.1177/09612033221118463
