Effects of Dabigatran in Mouse Models of Aging and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy
Oral anticoagulants are a critical component of stroke prevention, but carry a risk of brain hemorrhage. These hemorrhagic complications tend to occur in elderly individuals, especially those with predisposing conditions such as cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Clinical evidence suggests that non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants are safer than traditional oral anticoagulants. We analyzed whether the anticoagulant dabigatran produces cerebral microhemorrhage (the pathological substrate of MRI-demonstrable cerebral microbleeds) or intracerebral hemorrhage in aged mice with and without hemorrhage-predisposing angiop...

Idarucizumab administration in emergency situations: the Munich Registry of Reversal of Pradaxa ® in clinical routine (MR REPAIR)
ConclusionIn our study, we have shown that the administration of Idarucizumab is a rare intervention and restricted to patients with severe bleeding complications or ischemic stroke. The clinical outcome of patients who received Idarucizumab in emergency situations was poor.

Renal Function Estimates and Dosing of Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Stroke Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: An Observational Study.
CONCLUSION: Although substituting eGFR for CrCl carries potential risks of DOAC overdosing in patients with AF, the effect might be offset by clinicians' predilection for lower dosage in this stroke cohort. PMID: 31304571 [PubMed - in process]

Dabigatran and warfarin in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter in outpatient clinic practice in Brazil
Conclusion: The dabigatran group had a lower frequency of minor bleeding and number of medical appointments than the warfarin group, without more embolic events or major bleeding.RESUMO Objetivos: Comparar varfarina e dabigatrana para preven ção de eventos tromboembólicos em pacientes com fibrilação atrial não valvar ou flutter (FA). Métodos: Coorte retrospectiva de pacientes com FA em uso de varfarina ou dabigatrana em serviço especializado no Brasil. Resultados: Foram avaliados 112 pacientes (média idade 65,5), com 55,3% no grupo varfarina. A mediana do tempo de seguimento foi de 1,9 anos para o grupo varfarina ...

Intravenous Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke After Idarucizumab Reversal of Dabigatran Effect: Analysis of the Cases From Taiwan
Background: Asians with atrial fibrillation carry a higher risk of ischemic stroke than non-Asians even under treatment of nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants. The purpose of the study was to observe the feasibility of intravenous thrombolytic therapy after administering a reversal agent, idarucizumab, in dabigatran-treated patients with acute ischemic stroke in Taiwan. Methods: Dabigatran-treated patients with acute ischemic stroke who received intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) after idarucizumab reversal were enrolled in the retrospective nationwide study.

Intravenous Thrombolysis After Idarucizumab Application in Acute Stroke Patients —A Potentially Increased Sensitivity of Thrombi to Lysis?
Background: Rapid inactivation of dabigatran by its specific inhibitor idarucizamab allows intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients suffering ischemic stroke while being treated with dabigatran. Only limited data of this approach is available and numerous questions regarding efficacy/safety remain to be answered. Herein, we present the findings from the Slovenian national cohort study. Methods: Retrospective analysis of all stroke patients treated with idarucizumab and IVT (n  = 11) in the period from July 2016 to February 2018 from Slovenian region were analyzed.

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,...

Idarucizumab-facilitated intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke: A therapeutic strategy requiring further investigation
Although dabigatran does a better job reducing the risk of cardioembolic stroke than warfarin in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, 0.92 –1.34% of dabigatran users still develop isch emic stroke [1]. The usage of warfarin (even at a suboptimal therapeutic level) increases the risk of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) after intravenous thrombolysis (IT) [2]; therefore, current guidelines advise against performing IT in patients receiv ing any direct oral anti-coagulant (DOAC), including dabigatran [3].

Intravenous thrombolysis in stroke patients taking novel oral anticoagulants: experience with the low-dose 0.6  mg/kg of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator. Case reports
In the last decade, the novel oral anticoagulant (NOAC) dabigatran (a direct thrombin inhibitor), rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban (direct factor Xa inhibitors) have been approved for primary and secondary prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) [1]. Compared with vitamin k antagonists such as warfarin, the NOACs offer benefits in terms of efficacy, safety and convenience [2]. The only currently approved treatment for acute stroke with a class I recommendation and level A evidence is intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator alteplase (IV rt-PA) [4].
