Interaction between thrombin potential and age on early clinical outcome in patients hospitalized for COVID-19
AbstractPatients with Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID ‐19) have haemostatic dysfunction and are at higher risk of thrombotic complications. Although age is a major risk factor for outcome impairment in COVID-19, its impact on coagulative patterns here is still unclear. We investigated the association of Endogenous Thrombin Potential (ETP) with thromb otic and haemorrhagic events according to different ages in patients admitted for COVID-19. A total of 27 patients with COVID‐19-related pneumonia, without need for intensive care unit admission or mechanical ventilation at hospital presentation, and 24 controls with non-C...

Thrombectomy for ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion and concomitant subarachnoid hemorrhage
AbstractTo report our experience in treating one patient with nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and concurrent acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessels occlusion (LVO). A man in his 50  s presented with acute right hemiparesis and aphasia. Brain CT showed a SAH in the left central sulcus; CT-angiography revealed a tandem occlusion of the left internal carotid artery and homolateral middle cerebral artery. He underwent an angiographic procedure with successful recanalization. Foll ow-up CT demonstrated a striatal-lenticular stroke without SAH progression. While the absolute contraindication to IVT during i...

Risks associated with discontinuation of oral anticoagulation in newly diagnosed patients with atrial fibrillation: Results from the GARFIELD-AF Registry
CONCLUSIONS: Patients who discontinued (n=3,114, 13.0%) had a higher risk (Hazard ratio [95% CI]) of all-cause death (1.62 [1.25-2.09]), stroke/systemic embolism (SE) (2.21 [1.42-3.44]) and myocardial infarction (MI) (1.85 [1.09-3.13]) than patients who did not, whether OAC was restarted or not. This higher risk of outcomes after discontinuation was similar for patients treated with vitamin K antagonists (VKA) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) (p for interactions range=0.145-0.778). Bleeding history (1.43 [1.14-1.80]), paroxysmal vs. persistent AF (1.15 [1.02-1.29]), emergency room care setting vs. office (1.37 [1.18-...

Stroke risk factors and outcomes among hospitalized women with atrial fibrillation
In conclusion, women hospitalized with AF have a higher risk of stroke at 90 days compared with men. Anticoagulation at hospital discharge was omitted in 40% of women with AF, but when prescribed, was associated with a reduction in mortality and major adverse events at 90 days, respectivel y.Graphic abstractWe analyzed 5000 hospitalized patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) (1888 women and 3112 men) in an observational cohort study completed at our tertiary care medical center to assess sex-related differences in cardiovascular risk factors, prescription of antithrombotic therapy, and 90-day outcomes. We observed a 50% ...

Adherence to the 'Atrial Fibrillation Better Care' (ABC) Pathway in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
CONCLUSION: Adherence to the ABC pathway was suboptimal, being adopted in 1 in every 5 patients. Adherence to the ABC pathway was associated with a reduction in the risk of major adverse outcomes.PMID:34020488 | DOI:10.1055/a-1515-9630

Optimal tests to minimise bleeding and ischaemic complications in patients on short-term mechanical circulatory support
Thromb Haemost. 2021 May 13. doi: 10.1055/a-1508-8230. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPatients receiving left-sided mechanical circulatory support (MCS) require systemic anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin (UFH) to prevent clotting of the circuit and reduce the risk of arterial thrombosis. With MCS, there is a very high frequency of bleeding and ischaemic complications, including stroke and systemic embolism. Monitoring of UFH can be very challenging. Whilst most centres routinely monitor the activated clotting time, prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and fibrinogen to assess haemostasis,...

Dose Specific Effectiveness and Safety of DOACs in Patients with Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation: a Canadian Retrospective Cohort Study
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been proven to be effective and safe for prevention of ischemic stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). However, suboptimal adherence, variable dosing and use in patient populations that otherwise would have been excluded from clinical trials may impact the efficacy and safety profile of DOACs in a routine care setting. We compared stroke, bleeding, and mortality rates on and off therapy for standard and low-dose DOACs (apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran) versus warfarin in a Canadian cohort.

Real-world comparison of direct-acting oral anticoagulants and vitamin K antagonists in chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusion: DOACs are associated with only a modest reduction in stroke or systemic embolism, major bleeding, and mortality when compared to VKA in CKD patients. Reduction in mortality and major bleeding with DOAC may only be seen in moderate-to-severe CKD patients.PMID:33949923 | DOI:10.1080/17474086.2021.1920012
