Comparative effectiveness, safety, and costs of rivaroxaban and warfarin among morbidly obese patients with atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsMorbidly obese AF patients treated with rivaroxaban had comparable risk of ischemic stroke/systemic embolism and major bleeding as those treated with warfarin, but lower healthcare resource utilization and costs.

Association of Frailty and Cognitive Impairment with benefits of Oral anticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation
ConclusionThose with cognitive impairment or frailty in AF had higher predicted risk for stroke and higher observed mortality, yet were less likely to be treated with OAC. Despite this, the benefits of OAC were similar in patients with and without cognitive impairment or frailty.

Radial versus femoral vascular access in ST-elevation myocardial infarction: Are the results of femoral operators unfairly represented in observational research?
ConclusionDefault femoral operators achieved comparable outcomes when compared to default radial operators. The less favorable outcomes observed in FA cases may result from its selective use by radial operators in high risk cases.

Outcomes of Apixaban versus warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation and multi-morbidity: Insights from the ARISTOTLE trial
ConclusionsMulti-morbidity is prevalent among the population with AF; efficacy and safety of apixaban is preserved in this subgroup supporting extension of trial results to the most complex AF patients.Clinical trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov (NCT00412984).

Publication date: November 2018Source: American Heart Journal, Volume 205Author(s): Nicolas M. Van Mieghem, Martin Unverdorben, Marco Valgimigli, Roxana Mehran, Eric Boersma, Usman Baber, Christian Hengstenberg, Minggao Shi, Cathy Chen, Shigeru Saito, Roland Veltkamp, Pascal Vranckx, George D. DangasTranscatheter aortic valve implantation, also called transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), is the treatment of choice for patients with severe aortic stenosis and intermediate to high operative risk. A significant portion of TAVR patients have atrial fibrillation (AF) requiring chronic oral anticoagulation. In moderate...

Variation in post-TAVR antiplatelet therapy utilization and associated outcomes: Insights from the STS/ACC TVT registry®
ConclusionsIn the U.S. the majority of patients were discharged on DAPT following TAVR. Practice patterns varied significantly among hospitals. Patients discharged with DAPT had a similar adjusted risk of mortality, stroke and MI compared to antiplatelet monotherapy, though risk for bleeding was significantly higher. Future investigation is needed to define the optimal antiplatelet therapy for patients undergoing TAVR.
