Rivaroxaban versus Warfarin in Patients with Mechanical Heart Valve: Rationale and Design of the RIWA Study
DiscussionWarfarin and similar VKAs are standard therapy for patients with an MHV. Even with the appropriate use of therapy, the incidence of thromboembolic events is high at 1 –4% per year. Furthermore, bleeding risk is significant, ranging from 2 to 9% per year. The new frontier to be overcome in relation to use of the new oral anticoagulants is undoubtedly in patients with MHV. A significant portion of people with MHV worldwide will benefit if noninferiority of these new agents is confirmed.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier:NCT03566303.

Efficacy and Safety of Prothrombin Complex Concentrate (PCC) for Direct Oral Anticoagulant Reversal: A Single Institutional Experience
ConclusionIn this cohort, 80% of pts demonstrated clinical stability/improvement of hemorrhage. All pts were able to undergo surgical procedures; however 17% required additional FFP to achieve hemostasis. Thromboembolism occurred in 12% of patients. No deaths could definitely be attributed to 4PCC; however, 30% of deaths could be attributable to the underlying hemorrhagic episode.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Analysis of the Safety Profile of Commonly Used Procoagulants Using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System
Conclusions:Our analysis found that the rate of reports of death and MI were higher with rFVIIa than other procoagulants, while reports of ischemic stroke and intracranial hemorrhage were more common with PCCs. rFVIIa has been associated with cardiovascular before, a finding reiterated by our study. There are notable limitations of this type of analysis, including the reliance on the accurate reporting of adverse events to the FDA, possibility of duplications of reports in the FAERS database, and the importance of not conflating correlation with causation as it relates to these events. The association between rFVIIa and in...

Comparative effectiveness and safety of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants versus warfarin in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients: The dose subgroup analysis of the ARISTOPHANES study
ConclusionsIn this large observational study, api was the only NOAC associated with lower rates of S/SE and MB for both doses compared to warf. Dose selection criteria cannot be ascertained from current data sources. Future studies of pts who were appropriately dosed should be warranted.

Oral Anticoagulants With Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Versus Clopidogrel in Patients After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: In patients who are on OAC with vitamin K antagonist and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, no significant differences were found in mortality, ischemic, and hemorrhagic complications between the patients treated with TT and DT. Thus, tailored treatment based on individual thromboembolic and bleeding risk might be the most reasonable approach in these patients.

Thromboembolic and haemorrhagic events in patients with atrial fibrillation: a prospective cohort study in UK primary and secondary care.
CONCLUSION: Anticoagulants are associated with lower risk of thromboembolic and haemorrhagic events among patients with AF than antiplatelets. More research is required on the risk associated with VKAs or NOACs. PMID: 31015222 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Preventable Cases of Oral Anticoagulant-Induced Bleeding: Data From the Spontaneous Reporting System
Conclusion: Our findings describe the most reported risk factors for preventability of oral anticoagulant-induced bleedings. These factors may be useful for targeting interventions to improve pharmacovigilance activities in our regional territory and to reduce the burden of medication errors and inappropriate prescription. Introduction Oral anticoagulant therapy is widely used for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation, or for the prevention and treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (Raj et al., 1994; Monaco et al., 2017). Oral anticoagulants can be di...

Comparative effectiveness of rivaroxaban versus a vitamin K antagonist in patients with renal impairment treated for non-valvular atrial fibrillation in Germany — A retrospective cohort study
ConclusionThe prescription of rivaroxaban in patients with NVAF and renal impairment was associated with a lower incidence of ischaemic stroke and intracranial haemorrhage versus phenprocoumon in patients without evidence of cancer.

Determinants of Antithrombotic Treatment for Atrial Fibrillation in Octogenarians: Results of the OCTOFA Study
ConclusionsMost private-practice cardiologists prescribe anticoagulant treatment according to current guidelines in elderly atrial fibrillation patients. Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants represent a significant proportion of prescriptions.

Anticoagulation in Patients with Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease: Walking the Fine Line between Benefit and Harm
Publication date: Available online 11 July 2019Source: Canadian Journal of CardiologyAuthor(s): Januvi Jegatheswaran, Gregory L. Hundemer, David Massicotte-Azarniouch, Manish M. SoodAbstractChronic kidney disease affects over 3 million Canadians and is highly associated with cardiovascular diseases that require anticoagulation, such as atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism. Patients with chronic kidney disease are at a problematic crossroads; they are at high risk of both thrombotic conditions requiring anticoagulation and bleeding complications due to anticoagulation. The limited high-quality clinical evidence to...

Benefits and Harms of Oral Anticoagulant Therapy in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Conclusion: In early-stage CKD, NOACs had a benefit-risk profile superior to that of VKAs. For advanced CKD or ESKD, there was insufficient evidence to establish benefits or harms of VKAs or NOACs.

Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and meta-analysis
AbstractSeveral studies have explored the use of NOACs compared with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and atrial fibrillation (AF); and therefore, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety outcomes of NOACs with VKAs in this population. We systematically searched the PubMed and Embase databases until August 5, 2019 for studies that compared the effect of NOACs with VKAs in patients with HCM and AF. The risk ratios (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled using a random-effects model. A total of four observational studies were included in this meta-analysis. Over...

Optimization of risk stratification for anticoagulation-associated intracerebral hemorrhage: net risk estimation
ConclusionsIn this anticoagulation-associated ICH cohort, baseline hemorrhagic risk exceeded ischemic risk in approximately 50%, highlighting the importance of careful consideration of risk/benefit ratio prior to anticoagulation decisions. The remaining 50% suffered an ICH despite excess baseline ischemic risk, stressing the need for biomarkers to allow more precise estimation of hemorrhagic complication risk.

Mortality in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage associated with antiplatelet agents, oral anticoagulants or no antithrombotic therapy.
In conclusion, preceding treatment with antithrombotic is associated with the severity of ICH. Age, previous stroke and clinical severity at presentation were independent predictors of in-hospital death in patients with ICH. PMID: 31955918 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
