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.

Apixaban compared with parenteral heparin and/or vitamin K antagonist in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation undergoing cardioversion: Rationale and design of the EMANATE trial
Publication date: September 2016 Source:American Heart Journal, Volume 179 Author(s): Michael D. Ezekowitz, Charles V. Pollack, Paul Sanders, Jonathan L. Halperin, Judith Spahr, Nilo Cater, William Petkun, Andrei Breazna, Paulus Kirchhof, Jonas Oldgren Stroke prevention in anticoagulation-naïve patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing cardioversion has not been systematically studied. Objective To determine outcomes in anticoagulation-naïve patients (defined as those receiving an anticoagulant for <48 hours during the index episode of atrial fibrillation) scheduled for cardioversion. Methods This...

Is There A Role For Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Guided Dosing For Novel Oral Anticoagulants?
Publication date: Available online 10 October 2017 Source:American Heart Journal Author(s): Noel Chan, Philip T. Sager, Jack Lawrence, Thomas's Ortel, Paul Reilly, Scott Berkowitz, Dagmar Kubitza, John Eikelboom, Jeffry Florian, Norman Stockbridge, Martin Rose, Robert Temple, Jonathan H. Seltzer The novel direct oral anticoagulants (NOACs) represent a major advance in oral anticoagulant therapy, and are replacing vitamin K antagonists as the preferred options for many indications. Given in fixed doses without routine laboratory monitoring, they have been shown to be at least as effective in reducing thromboembolic stroke ...

Patients’ Time in Therapeutic Range on Warfarin Among U.S. Atrial Fibrillation Patients: Results from ORBIT-AF Registry
Conclusions Among AF patients in US clinical practices, TTR on warfarin is suboptimal and those at highest predicted risks for stroke and bleeding were least likely to be in therapeutic range.

Atrial Fibrillation Decision Support Tool: Population Perspective
Conclusions Availability of DOACs increases the proportion of patients for whom oral anticoagulation therapy is recommended in a real-world cohort of AF patients and increased projected QALYs by more than 1500 when all patients are receiving thromboprophylaxis as recommended by the AFDST compared with current treatment.

Documentation of study medication dispensing in a prospective large randomized clinical trial: Experiences from the ARISTOTLE Trial
Conclusions: Rates of medication dispensing error were low and balanced between treatment groups. The initially reported dispensing error rate was the result of data recording and data management errors and not true medication dispensing errors. These analyses confirm the previously reported results of ARISTOTLE.

Physician practices regarding contraindications to oral anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation: Findings from the Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation (ORBIT-AF) registry
Conclusions: Contraindications to OAC therapy among patients with AF are common but subjective. Many patients with reported contraindications were receiving OAC, suggesting that the perceived benefit outweighed the potential harm posed by the relative contraindication.

Racial/Ethnic Differences in Atrial Fibrillation Symptoms, Treatment Patterns, and Outcomes: Insights from Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment for Atrial Fibrillation (ORBIT-AF) Registry
Conclusion Relative to white and Hispanic patients, black patients with AF had more symptoms, were less likely to receive rhythm control interventions and had lower quality of warfarin management. Despite these differences, clinical events at two years were similar by race and ethnicity.
