Direct Oral Anticoagulants in End-Stage Renal Disease
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0037-1621715Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) were excluded from pivotal clinical trials with oral anticoagulants. While such patients are at an increased risk of venous and arterial thromboembolism, their risk of bleeding is also elevated. It is thus of little surprise that stroke prevention with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in ESRD patients with atrial fibrillation is controversial, with observational evidence ranging from beneficial to harmful. This uncertainty extends to the less studied use of VKAs for venous thromboembolism in ESRD. The direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) ...

Nonvitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants Use in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Bioprosthetic Heart Valves/Prior Surgical Valve Repair: A Multicenter Clinical Practice Experience
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0037-1615261This is an observational study to investigate the efficacy and safety of nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with bioprosthetic valves or prior surgical valve repair in clinical practice. A total of 122 patients (mean age: 74.1 ± 13.2; 54 females) with bioprosthetic heart valve or surgical valve repair and AF treated with NOACs were included in the analysis. The mean CHA2DS2-VASc (Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age >75 years, Diabetes mellitus, prior Stroke or transient ischemic attack, Vascular disease) and...

Use of Non –Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Atrial Fibrillation Patients with Malignancy: Clinical Practice Experience in a Single Institution and Literature Review
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0037-1607436This observational study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of non–vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with malignancy. A total of 76 patients (mean age: 73.2 ± 8.9; 28 females) with AF and malignancy treated with NOAC were included in the analysis. The mean CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores were 3.2 ± 1.2 and 2.2 ± 0.9, respectively. The study population was taking dabigatran 150 mg (25%) twice daily (BID), apixaban 5 mg BID (25%), dabigatran 110 mg BID (24%), rivaroxaban 20 mg (18%) once a da...

Management of Hemostasis for Pediatric Patients on Ventricular-Assist Devices
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0037-1607982Ventricular-assist devices (VADs) have seen increased utilization in the pediatric population. Formerly, this therapeutic modality was limited to only the pulsatile VAD, EXCOR (Berlin Heart GmbH). However, the continuous flow VAD devices, HeartMate II (Abbott Inc.) and HeartWare (Medtronic Inc.), are now increasingly used in this population. Postoperatively, VAD patients are acutely anticoagulated using unfractionated heparin, often beginning 24 to 48 hours after VAD placement. Once the patient is stabilized and ready to transition to a lower acuity or outpatient setting, low-...

Risk Stratification Models in Atrial Fibrillation
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0036-1597285Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of stroke compared with the general population. AF-related stroke confers a higher mortality and morbidity risk, and thus, early detection and assessment for the initiation of effective stroke prevention with oral anticoagulation are crucial. Simple and practical risk assessment tools are essential to facilitate stroke and bleeding risk assessment in busy clinics and wards to aid decision making. At present, the CHA2DS2VASc score is recommended by guidelines as the most simple and practical method of assessing strok...

Gender Difference in Efficacy and Safety of Nonvitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation or Venous Thromboembolism: A Systematic Review and a Meta-Analysis of the Literature
Conclusions No gender-related difference in the efficacy and safety of NOACs in patients with AF or acute VTE was found. A trend toward an increased risk of bleeding in male patients as compared with female patients was detected in the extended treatment of VTE.[...]Thieme Medical Publishers 333 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10001, USA.Article in Thieme eJournals:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

Comparative Efficacy and Safety of the Non–Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants for Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation
Semin Thromb HemostDOI: 10.1055/s-0035-1544156The non–vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs), such as the thrombin inhibitor (dabigatran) and the direct factor Xa inhibitors (rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban), have been shown to be at least as efficacious and safe as conventional oral anticoagulants, such as the vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) (e.g., warfarin), for stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Each NOAC has various advantages and specific features, and therefore decisions regarding appropriate stroke prevention require individual assessment of stroke and bleeding ri...
