Protamine Reduces Serious Bleeding Complications Associated with Carotid Endarterectomy in Asymptomatic Patients without Increasing the Risk of Stroke, Myocardial Infarction, or Death in a Large National Analysis.
CONCLUSION: Protamine reduces serious bleeding complications at the time of CEA without increasing the risk of MI, stroke, or death, in this large North American analysis. Based on this and previous regional work regarding protamine use in CEA, it is believed that there is now sufficient evidence to support its routine use, and it should be considered as a benchmark for quality during CEA.

Outcomes of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Cardiac Transplant Patients: A Binational Analysis Derived From the United Kingdom and United States.
CONCLUSIONS: PCI in cardiac transplant recipients was associated with similar short-term mortality and vascular complications compared with PCI in the general populace. However, a higher 1-year morality was observed in the BCIS cohort. PMID: 32865507 [PubMed - in process]

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Cancer Patients: Prevalence and Outcomes in the United States.
CONCLUSION: Among those undergoing CABG, the prevalence of comorbid cancer has steadily increased. Outside of major bleeding, these patients appear to share similar outcomes to those without cancer indicating that CABG utilization should be not be declined in cancer patients when otherwise indicated. Further research into the factors underlying the decision to pursue CABG in specific cancer sub-groups is needed. PMID: 32861331 [PubMed - in process]

Meta-analysis of the efficacy and safety of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants with warfarin in Latin American patients with atrial fibrillation
Conclusions: Our meta-analysis suggested that the use of NOACs was at least non-inferior to warfarin use for stroke prevention in Latin American patients with AF.

Associations of Antithrombotic Timing and Regimen with Ischemic Stroke and Bleeding Complications in Blunt Cerebrovascular Injury
Blunt carotid injuries and vertebral arterial injuries, collectively referred to as blunt cerebrovascular injuries (BCVIs), are generally rare events but are associated with high mortality rates and long-term health effects.1 The long-term effects of BCVI include loss of both cognition and function, including the ability to perform daily cognitive and mobility activities without assistance, recurrent stroke, and need for extensive rehabilitation.2-6 Blunt cerebrovascular injuries have been reported to occur in 0.1-0.7% of all trauma patients in the United States,7-10 although higher rates ( ∼1-2%) have been reported afte...

Trends in the Utilization of Left Atrial Appendage Exclusion in the United States
Stroke prevention remains a cornerstone in the management of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF)1. Oral anticoagulation (OAC) is the main method of stroke prevention in NVAF worldwide. However,>50% of high-risk NVAF patients are not maintained on OAC due to comorbidities, frailty, bleeding complications, or non-compliance2. In 1996, Blackshear proposed Left atrial appendage exclusion (LAAE) as an alternative stroke prevention strategy in NVAF3. Because no randomized data were available to support the routine use of LAAE, its utilization remained initially limited to selected patients undergoing a concomitant cardiac surgery.

Indications and Evidence for Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Acute Ischemic Stroke
The antiplatelet landscape for the secondary prevention of ischemic stroke has changed significantly over the past decade. Poststroke dual antiplatelet regimens are becoming increasingly routine as supported by recent literature and guideline recommendations. Dual antiplatelet therapy after stroke generally consists of aspirin and clopidogrel and is considered in the short term after stroke in select populations including those with mild stroke or transient ischemic attack and in patients with severe intracranial atherosclerosis. When initiating dual antiplatelet therapy, factors that may increase a patient's risk of bleed...

Readmissions after Acute Kidney Injury during Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation Hospitalization.
CONCLUSION: AKI-D was associated with highest -30-day readmission risk, possibly related to negatively synergistic effects of LVAD, kidney dysfunction, and dialysis related factors on infection and GI bleeding risks. AKI alone was not associated with increased readmission risk. PMID: 31962311 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Antithrombotic therapy for chronic coronary syndrome and atrial fibrillation: less might be more
AbstractThe best strategy in atrial fibrillation (AF) after  >  12 months after an acute coronary syndrome or in patients with chronic coronary syndrome without an indication for interventional revascularization remains unclear. European guidelines generally recommend therapy with oral anticoagulation (OAC) alone, whereas North American guidelines advise com bination therapy consisting of OAC plus antiplatelet therapy in some patients. We performed a meta-analysis of available trials comparing these treatment strategies. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE), secondary endpoints included maj...

Protamine Reduces the Risk of Serious Bleeding at the Time of CEA without Increased Risk of Stroke, MI or Death
Introduction: Controversy persists regarding the use of Protamine during carotid endarterectomy (CEA) despite real world evidence to support its use. The purpose of this study was to best determine the impact of protamine reversal of heparin anticoagulation on the outcome of CEA throughout the United States.
