Anticoagulation use and the risk of stroke and major bleeding in patients on hemodialysis: From the VIVALDI, a population-based prospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Although the non-randomized nature of the study is prone to bias, anticoagulation with VKA was not associated with decreased thromboembolic risk, but associated with increased risk of major bleeding and may be net-harmful to patients with AF on HD.PMID:34418291 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15508

A comparison of red blood cell transfusion utilization between anti-factor Xa and activated partial thromboplastin monitoring in patients receiving unfractionated heparin.
CONCLUSION: Anti-Xa was associated with a significant reduction in RBC transfusions when compared to patients monitored by aPTT alone. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. PMID: 27543785 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Dabigatran treatment simulation in patients undergoing maintenance haemodialysis.
This study simulated the dose-exposure relationship of dabigatran in patients undergoing haemodialysis. Dabigatran exposure was modelled at once- and twice-daily doses of 75 mg, 110 mg and 150 mg and at variations in non-renal clearance and dialysis settings. Resultant dose exposure (area under the curve [AUC]) was compared with values simulated from typical patients in the RE-LY® trial (based on a previously characterised pharmacometric model). In this simulation, all twice-daily dosages resulted in exposures above those simulated from typical RE-LY patients (1.5- to 3.3-fold increase in AUC) and thus may not be optimal ...

Hemodialysis for the treatment of dabigatran-associated bleeding: a case report and systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with dabigatran associated bleeding, RRT appears to be effective in reducing dabigatran concentrations and in case reports this has been associated with a reduction in duration and/or severity of bleeding. However, a rebound in concentrations may be seen following withdrawal of RRT suggesting that a prolonged course of RRT may be more effective. This article is protected by copyright.

Pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of edoxaban in end-stage renal disease subjects undergoing haemodialysis.
In conclusion, based on these single-dose PK data, a supplementary dose of edoxaban may not be required following a haemodialysis session. Importantly, haemodialysis is not an effective mechanism for removal of edoxaban from the blood. PMID: 25566930 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
