Coagulation Assay and Stroke Severity upon Admission of Patients with Cardioembolic Cerebral Infarction during Direct Oral Anticoagulant Use
Keio J Med. 2021 Mar 16. doi: 10.2302/kjm.2020-0019-OA. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough the severity of acute cerebral infarction varies in patients receiving direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), no practical method to predict the severity has been established. We analyzed retrospectively the relationship between cardioembolic cerebral infarction severity and coagulation indicators in patients treated with DOACs. We assessed the anticoagulation effect of DOACs using the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), and prothrombin time international standardized ratio (PT-INR) in 71 patients wi...
