DVT Prevention in Stroke
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe purpose of this review is to discuss the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in stroke patients. We discuss use of oral anticoagulation and other interventions for the prevention of VTE. A new class of medications, non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs), have been successfully trialed for the prevention of VTE. We review the data and guidance statements for VTE prevention.Recent FindingsWarfarin and vitamin K antagonist drugs have been the mainstay of VTE prevention for decades. More recently, NOACs have become available for both stroke and systemic embolism prevention in n...

Risk factors for stroke and choice of oral anticoagulant in atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsThe uptake of DOACs was rapid and spurred an increase in new users of oral anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation from 2010 to 2015 in Norway. The mean CHA2DS2-VASc score did not change substantially during this period. Vascular disease, heart failure, and diabetes were associated with initiation of warfarin, and previous stroke, age 65 –74 and female sex with initiation of DOACs.

Rivaroxaban Versus Warfarin for Stroke Prevention and Venous Thromboembolism Treatment in Extreme Obesity and High Body Weight.
Conclusion and Relevance: Although not statistically significant, rivaroxaban trended toward a lower incidence of clinical failure while demonstrating a significantly shorter LOS when compared with warfarin for VTE treatment or atrial fibrillation in morbidly obese or high-body-weight patients.

Stroke and Thromboembolism in Warfarin-Treated Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Comparing the CHA2DS2-VASc and GARFIELD-AF Risk Scores.
CONCLUSIONS: In a warfarin-treated trial cohort of AF patients, both CHA2DS2-VASc and GARFIELD-AF Stroke scores were associated with adjudicated TE events, with modest predictive capacity. Simpler CHA2DS2-VASc score improved discriminatory capacity compared to more complex GARFIELD-AF score, demonstrating improved clinical usefulness and net clinical benefit.

Anticoagulation Resumption in a Patient With Mechanical Heart Valves, Antithrombin Deficiency, and Hemorrhagic Transformation Following Thrombectomy After Ischemic Stroke
This study is the first report of administering argatroban and titrating to its appropriate dose in the patient with valve thrombosis, antithrombin deficiency, and HT after mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke. Notably, the fluctuations argatroban brings to the coagulation test results might not be interpreted as increased bleeding risk. This case also suggested that the reported timing (day 6 to day 14 after hemorrhage) of anticoagulant resumption in primary intracerebral hemorrhage with mechanical valves might be late for some patients with HT.

Selecting the right anticoagulant for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation
CONCLUSIONS: Non-valvular AF patients on apixaban had lower rates of thromboembolic events than the patients on acenocumarol. This article will serve as a reminder of the positive health and financial outcomes of apixaban use, especially to those healthcare systems that are still oblivious to the decrease in economic burden and gain in quality-adjusted life years (QALY) by the long-term use of NOACS/ DOACS instead of the AVK anticoagulants.PMID:34286492 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202107_26241
