Healthcare costs of stroke and major bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation treated with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants.
CONCLUSIONS: The incremental healthcare costs incurred by patients with versus without stroke/SE was nearly twice as high as those of patients with versus without MB. Moreover, each additional year up to 4 years after the first event was associated with an incremental cost for patients with a stroke/SE or MB event compared to those without an event.

Use of insertable cardiac monitors for the detection of atrial fibrillation in patients with cryptogenic stroke in the United States is cost-effective.
Authors: Maervoet J, Bossers N, Borge RP, Thompson Hilpert S, van Engen A, Smala A Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and a major marker of stroke risk. Early detection is crucial and, once diagnosed, anticoagulation therapy can be initiated to reduce stroke risk. The aim of this study was to assess the cost-effectiveness of employing an insertable cardiac monitor (ICM), BIOMONITOR, for the detection of AF compared to standard of care (SoC) ECG and Holter monitoring in patients with cryptogenic stroke, that is, stroke of unknown origin and where paroxysmal, silent AF is suspected. A Mar...

Review of Economics and Cost-Effectiveness Analyses of Anticoagulant Therapy for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation in the US.
CONCLUSIONS: This review identified several areas of uncertainty regarding the economic benefit of anticoagulants. The generalizability of cost-effectiveness results of anticoagulant therapy in AF based on clinical trial data must be confirmed by comparative effectiveness research conducted in the real-world setting.

Hospitalization expenses of acute ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation relative to those with normal sinus rhythm.
CONCLUSION: AIS patients with AF incurred higher expenses during hospitalization compared with those with normal SR, due to greater stroke severity, higher rates of pulmonary infection and congestive heart failure, and longer hospital stays. PMID: 27559816 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Real-world comparison of all-cause hospitalizations, hospitalizations due to stroke and major bleeding, and costs for nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients prescribed oral anticoagulants in a US health plan.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated a significantly higher risk of hospitalization (all-cause, stroke/SE, and major bleeding) associated with warfarin, a significantly higher risk of major bleeding hospitalization associated with dabigatran or rivaroxaban, and a significantly higher risk of all-cause hospitalization associated with rivaroxaban compared to apixaban. Lower major bleeding-related costs were observed for apixaban patients compared to warfarin and rivaroxaban patients. PMID: 29047304 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Number needed to treat based on real-world evidence for non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants versus vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in stroke prevention in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
CONCLUSIONS: The NNT calculation, when approached and interpreted properly, is a practical measure of the effectiveness of a treatment. The calculation based on HRs showed that NOACs are safe and effective alternatives to VKAs in real life. PMID: 30969801 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Abstract 257: A Long-Term Comparison of Clinical and Economic Outcomes with Novel Oral Anti- Coagulants Session Title: Poster Session II
Conclusions: While using NOACs in NVAF treatment raises drug costs compared to current practice, it also reduces stroke incidence. Among NOACs, apixaban does so at lower cost, with fewer bleeding events than either dabigatran or rivaroxaban.

The IMPact of UntReated NOn-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation on Short-TErm clinical and economic outcomes in the US Medicare population: the IMPROVE-AF model
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that increased overall OAC use has a positive clinical benefit on the annual number of ischemic stroke events and deaths avoided in the Medicare population, while maintaining a modest increase in the overall BI to the Medicare system.PMID:34415229 | DOI:10.1080/13696998.2021.1970954

Estimation of the cost-effectiveness of apixaban versus vitamin K antagonists in the management of atrial fibrillation in Argentina
Abstract Apixaban, a novel oral anticoagulant which has been approved for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation, reduces both ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke and produces fewer bleedings than vitamin K antagonist warfarin. These clinical results lead to a decrease in health care resource utilization and, therefore, have a positive impact on health economics of atrial fibrillation. The cost-effectiveness of apixaban has been assessed in a variety of clinical settings and countries. However, data from emergent markets, as is the case of Argentina, are still scarce. ...

Clinical and economic impact of rivaroxaban on the burden of atrial fibrillation: the case study of Japan.
CONCLUSIONS: Introducing rivaroxaban may decrease the burden of NVAF in Japanese society. From a clinical perspective, the reduction in IS and embolic events outweighs the increased risk of anticoagulant-related bleeding; from an economic perspective, reduced event costs offset drug and physician visit costs, resulting in cost savings.

Clinical and Cost Effectiveness of Apixaban Compared to Aspirin in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: An Australian Perspective
ConclusionCompared to aspirin, apixaban is likely to be cost effective in preventing thromboembolic disease among VKA unsuitable patients with atrial fibrillation.

Antithrombotic stewardship: a multidisciplinary team approach towards improving antithrombotic therapy outcomes during and after hospitalisation: a study protocol
In this study, the effect of the implementation of a multidisciplinary antithrombotic team is compared with usual care using a pre-post study design. The study is performed at the Erasmus University Medical Center Rotterdam and the Reinier de Graaf Hospital Delft. Patients who are or will be treated with antithrombotics are included in the study. We aim to include 1900 patients, 950 in each hospital. Primary outcome is the proportion of patients with a composite end point consisting of ≥1 bleeding or ≥1 thrombotic event from the beginning of antithrombotic therapy (or hospitalisation) until 3 months after hospit...
