Systemic Thrombolysis for Ischemic Stroke after Antagonizing Dabigatran with Idarucizumab —A Case Report
We here describe our experience of systemic thrombolysis therapy for severe ischemic stroke in a patient taking dabigatran for atrial fibrillation. After administration of the monoclonal antibody fragment idarucizumab, the anticoagulative effects of dabigatran were efficiently antagonized and application of alteplase was safe and feasible in our patient. This case report may illustrate a novel treatment option in the neurological emergency setting.

Systemic Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke after Dabigatran Etexilate Reversal with Idarucizumab —A Case Report
Idarucizumab is a reversal agent for dabigatran etexilate. By reversing the anticoagulating effect of dabigatran etexilate with idarucizumab (Praxbind), patients presenting with an acute ischemic stroke can now be eligible for thrombolysis.

Intravenous Thrombolysis in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke after a Reversal of Dabigatran Anticoagulation with Idarucizumab: A Real-World Clinical Experience
Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) is contraindicated in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) using oral anticoagulants. A specific human monoclonal antibody was introduced to reverse immediately the anticoagulation effect of the direct inhibitor of thrombin, dabigatran. Until now, mostly individual cases presenting with successful IVT after a reversal of dabigatran anticoagulation in patients with AIS were published. Thus, we aimed to report real-world data from clinical practice.

Contemporary Antiplatelet and Anticoagulant Therapies for Secondary Stroke Prevention: A Narrative Review of Current Literature and Guidelines
Curr Neurol Neurosci Rep. 2023 Apr 11. doi: 10.1007/s11910-023-01266-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. The annual incidence of new or recurrent stroke is approximately 795,000 cases per year in the United States, of which 87% are ischemic in nature. In addition to the management of modifiable high-risk factors to reduce the risk of recurrent stroke, antithrombotic agents (antiplatelets and anticoagulants) play an important role in secondary stroke prevention. This review will discuss the published literature on the use of antiplatelets and antic...

Timing of anticoagulation after recent ischaemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation
Publication date: Available online 8 November 2018Source: The Lancet NeurologyAuthor(s): David J Seiffge, David J Werring, Maurizio Paciaroni, Jesse Dawson, Steven Warach, Truman J Milling, Stefan T Engelter, Urs Fischer, Bo NorrvingSummaryBackgroundAbout 13–26% of all acute ischaemic strokes are related to non-valvular atrial fibrillation, the most common cardiac arrhythmia globally. Deciding when to initiate oral anticoagulation in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation is a longstanding, common, and unresolved clinical challenge. Although the risk of early recurrent ischaemic stroke is high in this population,...

Risks and Benefits of Anticoagulation in Atrial Fibrillation: Insights From the Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation (ORBIT-AF) Registry Original Articles
Conclusions— In community-based outpatients with AF, use of OAC was high and driven by not only predominantly stroke but also bleeding risk. Stroke risk significantly affects OAC use among those with low bleeding risk, whereas those with high bleeding risk demonstrate consistently lower use of OAC regardless of stroke risk.

Efficacy and safety of edoxaban in comparison with dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. An indirect comparison analysis.
Abstract Large Phase 3 clinical trials for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF) have compared non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) against warfarin, with the edoxaban trial only recently reported. In the absence of head to head trials directly comparing these NOACs against each other, we compared the efficacy and safety of edoxaban to other agents by an indirect comparison analysis. We performed an indirect comparison analysis of edoxaban (2 dose strategies) against apixaban (1 dose), dabigatran etexilate (2 doses) and rivaroxaban (1 dose), for their relative efficacy and safety against ea...

Clinical Features of Ischemic Stroke during Treatment with Dabigatran: An Association between Decreased Severity and a Favorable Prognosis.
Conclusion Dabigatran may therefore decrease the severity of ischemic stroke, even if ischemic stroke occurs. PMID: 26424298 [PubMed - in process]

Acute Management of Stroke Patients Taking Non-vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants Addressing Real-world Anticoagulant Management Issues in Stroke (ARAMIS) Registry: Design and Rationale
Conclusion The ARAMIS Registry will document the current state of management of NOAC treated patients with acute ischemic stroke as well as contemporary care and outcome of anticoagulation-related intracerebral hemorrhage. These data will be used to better understand optimal strategies to care for these complex but increasingly common emergent real world clinical challenges.

Use of Intravenous Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Taking Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants (NOACs) Before Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: -While experience of using rt-PA in ischemic stroke patients on a NOAC is limited, these preliminary observations suggest that rt-PA appears to be reasonably well tolerated without prohibitive risks for adverse events among selected NOAC treated patients. Future study should evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous rt-PA in ischemic stroke patients taking NOACs. PMID: 28119380 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

306 The Changing Face of Stroke in the DOAC Era
ConclusionThe majority of strokes occurring in anticoagulated patients are related to warfarin use. We observed an almost significant reduction in the proportion of ischaemic strokes due to under-dosing of OAC over the study period. Warfarin continues to be recommended as the first line anticoagulant for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation by the HSE Medicines Management Programme, a decision which we would argue warrants review.

Updating the Cost Effectiveness of Oral Anticoagulants for Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Based on Varying Stroke and Bleed Risk Profiles
ConclusionsFrom a US private payer ’s perspective, dabigatran appears cost effective compared with other anticoagulants. This study indicated risk stratification especially considering both stroke and bleed risk simultaneously is important not only in clinical practice but also in health technology assessment exercises among patien ts with atrial fibrillation.
