Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in atrial fibrillation patients with bioprosthetic valves.
Authors: Andrade JG, Meseguer E, Didier R, Dussault C, Weitz JI Abstract INTRODUCTION: The non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs), which include dabigatran, apixaban, edoxaban and rivaroxaban, are preferred over vitamin K antagonists for stoke prevention in most patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. The NOACs are contraindicated in atrial fibrillation patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis or mechanical heart valves. There is evidence that bioprosthetic heart valves are less thrombogenic than mechanical heart valves, but it is unknown whether the risk of thromboembolism in atrial fibrillati...

Dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban vs. high TTR warfarin in atrial fibrillation
New oral anticoagulants are non-inferior compared with warfarin regarding stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation, with similar or decreased risk of bleeding. However, it is unclear whether high TTR warfarin is as effective and safe as NOACs. Our objective was to investigate efficacy and safety of apixaban, dabigatran or rivaroxaban compared with warfarin in clinical practice.

Oral anticoagulation alone for concomitant stable coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation: A definitive strategy?
Thrombus formation, albeit with partially different mechanisms, is the common denominator of adverse ischemic events in both coronary artery disease (CAD) and atrial fibrillation (AF) [1]. Accordingly, long-term oral antiplatelet therapy with aspirin, and oral anticoagulation (OAC) with either warfarin or a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC), including dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban, have long been established as the standard treatments for the prevention of (recurrent) cardiac ischemic events and stroke, respectively [2].

Causes of Death in Patients with Venous Thromboembolism Anticoagulated with Direct Oral Anticoagulants: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0038-1642644Death is more frequent than nonfatal recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) and major bleeding after acute VTE. The analysis of the causes of death is fundamental to explore new strategies to reduce mortality rates in these patients. The authors performed a meta-analysis to analyze mortality and independently adjudicated causes of death in anticoagulated patients due to VTE, and to evaluate potential differences between different anticoagulant schemes. They searched MEDLINE and CENTRAL, from January 1, 2000, to January 31, 2017, and performed additional searches in Web sites o...

Dabigatran reduces endothelial permeability through inhibition of thrombin-induced cytoskeleton reorganization
Dabigatran etexilate (DE), a new oral anti-coagulant, is a direct thrombin inhibitor. Clinical trials showed the favorable benefit-to-risk profile of DE compared to warfarin for the prevention of ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Remarkably, patients treated with dabigatran showed reduced rates of intracerebral hemorrhage compared to warfarin. As the breakdown of endothelial barrier integrity is associated with hemorrhagic events and as thrombin increases endothelial permeability, we hypothesized that dabigatran preserves the endothelial barrier by inhibiting thrombin-induced permeability.

Oral anticoagulant use in cardiovascular disorders: a perspective on present and potential indications for rivaroxaban.
CONCLUSION: NOACs may provide alternative treatment options in areas of unmet need, and numerous studies are underway to assess their benefit-risk profiles in these settings. PMID: 29672182 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

‘Ten Commandments’ of the EHRA Guide for the Use of NOACs in AF
Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are an alternative for vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) to prevent stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and have emerged as the preferred choice, particularly in patients newly started on anticoagulation. Both physicians and patients are becoming more accustomed to the use of these drugs in clinical practice. However, many unresolved questions on how to optimally use these agents in specific clinical situations remain. In 2013, the first “EHRA Practical Guide” was published to provide practical guidance for situations; an update was published in 2015. Below ...

Antithrombotic therapy in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: should we change our practice after the PIONEER AF-PCI and RE-DUAL PCI trials?
AbstractThe number of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is increasing. Since these patients have a CHA2DS2-VASc score of 1 or higher, they should be treated with oral anticoagulation to prevent stroke. However, combination therapy with oral anticoagulation for prevention of embolic stroke and dual platelet inhibition for prevention of coronary thrombosis significantly increases bleeding complications. The optimal combination, intensity and duration of antithrombotic combination therapy is still not known. In the rather small randomized WOEST trial, the combination of a vi...

A Review of the Use of Direct Oral Anticoagulant Use in Orthotopic Heart Transplantation Recipients
Over 60 years ago, the vitamin K antagonist (VKA) warfarin was approved and remained the only oral anticoagulation agent until recently [1]. Currently, within North America and Europe there are four DOACs available. Dabigatran, first approved in Europe and Canada in 2008, then in the United States of America in 2010, followed by rivaroxaban, apixaban, and most recently edoxaban. The introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) has been a major advancement and these agents are the preferred to VKAs for many indications [2 –5], including stroke prevention in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), acute treatment and...

Reversal of dabigatran using idarucizumab: single center experience in four acute stroke patients
AbstractDabigatran is a direct thrombin inhibitor and a non-vitamin-K-antagonizing oral anticoagulant, approved for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolization in atrial fibrillation. Idarucizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that was recently approved for antagonizing the anticoagulant effects of dabigatran. Here, we report the use of idarucizumab in four acute stroke patients treated with dabigatran in order to enable intravenous thrombolysis in three patients and emergent trepanation in one patient with space occupying subdural hematoma. Since experience on the optimal management of acute stroke patients un...
