Anticoagulation Control in Warfarin Treated Patients Undergoing Cardioversion for Atrial Fibrillation (From the ENSURE-AF Trial)
In the ENSURE-AF study (NCT 02072434), edoxaban was compared to enoxaparin –warfarin in 2199 patients undergoing electrical cardioversion of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). In this multicenter PROBE trial, we analyzed patients randomized to enoxaparin–warfarin. We determined time to achieve therapeutic range (TtTR), time in therapeutic range (TiTR), their clinic al determinants, relation to SAMe-TT2R2 score, and impact on primary endpoints (composite of stroke, systemic embolic event [SEE], myocardial infarction [MI], and cardiovascular death [CVD] and composite of major + clinically relevant non-major [CRNM] bleeding).

Predicting the higher rate of intracranial hemorrhage in glioma patients receiving therapeutic enoxaparin
Venous thromboembolism occurs in up to one-third of patients with primary brain tumors. Spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is also a frequent occurrence in these patients, but there is limited data on the safety of therapeutic anticoagulation. To determine the rate of ICH in patients treated with enoxaparin, we performed a matched, retrospective cohort study with blinded radiology review for 133 patients with high-grade glioma. After diagnosis of glioma, the cohort that received enoxaparin was 3 times more likely to develop a major ICH than those not treated with anticoagulation (14.7% vs 2.5%; P = .036; hazard rati...

Anticoagulation Control in Warfarin-Treated Patients Undergoing Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation (from the Edoxaban Versus Enoxaparin –Warfarin in Patients Undergoing Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation Trial)
In the Edoxaban Versus Enoxaparin –Warfarin in Patients Undergoing Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation (ENSURE-AF) study (NCT 02072434), edoxaban was compared with enoxaparin–warfarin in 2,199 patients undergoing electrical cardioversion of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF). In this multicenter prospective randomized open bl inded end-point trial, we analyzed patients randomized to enoxaparin–warfarin. We determined time to achieve therapeutic range (TtTR); time in therapeutic range (TiTR); their clinical determinants; relation to sex, age, medical history, treatment, tobacco use, race risk (SAMe-TT2R2) score; an...

Intravenous enoxaparin anticoagulation in percutaneous left atrial cardiac procedures.
CONCLUSIONS: IV enoxaparin without monitoring appears as a potential safe and easy-to-use anticoagulation regimen in percutaneous LA cardiac interventions. Further investigations with larger cohorts of patients are warranted. PMID: 28804058 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Pulmonary embolism four days after interruption of therapy with rivaroxaban.
We report on a 58-year-old male with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) with a CHA2DS2VASC score of 4 who developed central pulmonary embolism four days after interruption of rivaroxaban because of parotid surgery. He had received 40 mg enoxaparin/d. The parotid gland was partially resected within 6 hours without blood loss. Pulmonary embolism and AF occurred on the first postoperative day. He recovered with low-molecular-weight heparin in therapeutic dosages and amiodarone and was discharged with phenprocoumon. The relevance of a rivaroxaban rebound phenomenon, manifesting as arterial embolism, stroke or venous thrombo...

Health Care Cost In Patients Undergoing Electrical Cardioversion: An Analysis From The Edoxaban Versus Warfarin In Subjects Undergoing Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation (ENSURE-AF) Study
Electrical cardioversion (EC) restores and maintains sinus rhythm in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Edoxaban, a direct oral anticoagulant indicated for prevention of stroke or systemic embolic event (SEE) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) was compared with enoxaparin –warfarin in patients undergoing EC in ENSURE-AF (NCT 02072434) study, a phase 3b open-label, multi-national open-label trial comparing edoxaban with enoxaparin/warfarin followed by warfarin alone in 2,199 NVAF patients.

Antithrombotic treatment in peripheral artery disease.
Abstract This review treats antithrombotic use for peripheral arterial disease (PAD). In asymptomatic patients, there are no scientific data to support single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) for primary prophylaxis. In symptomatic PAD, SAPT with aspirin or clopidogrel is indicated. The efficacy of aspirin is controversial. Clopidogrel may be preferred over aspirin. Ticagrelor is not superior to clopidogrel in reducing major adverse cardiovascular events and major adverse limb events, but lowers the risk of ischaemic stroke. In symptomatic PAD, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with clopidogrel and aspirin does not prov...

A difficult situation – balancing critical anticoagulation versus the risk of permanent neurologic deficit: a case report
ConclusionsManagement of a retroperitoneal hematoma can commence with recognition of the warning signs of bleeding and neurological impairment, and consulting the appropriate services in case the need for intervention arises. A conservative approach of volume resuscitation and blood transfusion can be used initially, with the need for pausing or reversing anticoagulation being assessed on an individual basis with expert consultation. If intervention becomes necessary, other interventional radiology-based modalities can be used to identify and stop the bleeding source, and interventional radiology-guided drainage can be per...

Impact of Body Mass Index on Outcomes in the Edoxaban Versus Warfarin Therapy Groups in Patients Undergoing Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation (From ENSURE-AF)
In the EdoxabaN versus warfarin in subjectS UndeRgoing cardiovErsion of Atrial Fibrillation (ENSURE-AF) study (NCT 02072434), edoxaban showed similar efficacy and safety vs enoxaparin –warfarin in patients undergoing electrical cardioversion of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. In this ancillary analysis, we compared the primary efficacy (composite of stroke, systemic embolic event, myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular [CV] death, overall study period) and safety (composite of major and clinically relevant nonmajor [CRNM] bleeding, on-treatment) endpoints in relation to body mass index (BMI;

Betrixaban for Extended Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in High-Risk Hospitalized Patients: Putting the APEX Results into Practice
AbstractAcutely ill hospitalized medical patients remain at high thromboembolic risk for several weeks after discharge. Previous trials with extended-duration thromboprophylaxis using enoxaparin, apixaban, and rivaroxaban failed to achieve acceptable net clinical benefit, largely due to excess of major bleeding. Betrixaban is a novel factor Xa inhibitor with unique pharmacokinetic properties, including low renal clearance, long half-life, and low peak-to-trough ratio. The phase III APEX trial (N = 7513) compared a betrixaban 160 mg loading dose followed by 80 mg once daily for 35–42 days, with enoxaparin 40 mg once...

Spontaneous Retroperitoneal Hemorrhage
A 68-year-old man was admitted for pneumonia. Three months earlier he had suffered an embolic ischemic stroke related to newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation. He had residual aphasia, right hemiparesis with hemianesthesia, and was treated with subcutaneous enoxaparin 60  mg twice daily at the time of admission. Initial laboratory tests showed a white blood cell count of 12.480/mm3 and a hemoglobin level of 12.6 g/dL.

Weight! Weight! … Don’t Tell Me!
Weight-based, lifesaving medications are commonly used in hospitals and routinely used in emergency departments.1 Many weight-based medications are listed in the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) high-alert medication list. According to ISMP, “high-alert medications are drugs that bear a heightened risk of causing significant patient harm when they are used in error.”2 These frequently used medications include anticoagulants (eg, heparin and enoxaparin), antibiotics for septic shock (eg, vancomycin and tobramycin), fibrinolytic agent s for stroke (eg, alteplase), and antiepileptic drugs (eg, phenytoin and fosphenytoin).

Safety and Pharmacokinetics of DS-1040 Drug-Drug Interactions With Aspirin, Clopidogrel, and Enoxaparin.
Abstract DS-1040, a novel low-molecular-weight inhibitor of activated thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor, is under development for the treatment of thromboembolic diseases including venous thromboembolism and acute ischemic stroke. Here we describe the results of 3 studies that evaluated the safety and tolerability of DS-1040 along with the effect on DS-1040 pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, when dosed alone or when coadministered with aspirin (NCT02071004), clopidogrel (NCT02560688), or enoxaparin in healthy subjects. Concomitant administration of single-dose DS-1040 with multiple-dose aspirin, multiple-d...
