💡Let's focus on perioperative #DOAC /#NOAC / #TSOAC

➡️Consider both #surgical blood loss risk and #patient characteristics.

⚠️Remember NOT to bridge with #LMWH or #UFH.

What if it's not an elective patient??

Use #reversal agents when needed❗

🔹#Idarucizumab for #dabigatran
🔹#Andexanet for #apixaban and #rivaroxaban

1) Welcome to an #accredited #tweetorial on a unique emerging (in Ph3 now) option for specifically reversing the #antiplatelet effects of #ticagrelor: it's #bentracimab. Expert faculty is antithrombotic agent reversal guru @md_pollack of @UMMCnews, working to create #AHealthierMS

3) It is an unfortunate fact of life that one cannot prescribe #anticoagulant or #antiplatelet (together, #antithrombotic) therapy without increasing a patient's #bleedingrisk. That is why it should be an individualized risk:benefit decision, ideally . . .

In our @JAMA_current editorial, we tackle a timely question in #CardioTwitter: should we recommend #apixaban or #rivaroxaban as first-line anticoagulant for #Afib?The two #DOACs are not interchangeable for bleeding or stroke. Let's review all RCTs & RWE🧵
jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… Image
Why should you care? Why now? 1) >70% of #Medicare pts on anticoagulation are taking #DOACs, practically replacing warfarin 2) Generic DOACs will enter the market in 2022, massively ⬆️ patient access & use 3) Insurance companies may not cover all DOACs in their formularies 💵💊 Image
RCTs first: in ROCKET-AF (n=14K pts), riva was NON-INFERIOR to warfarin for stroke (per-protocol)🧠, w/ similar rates of major/non-major bleed🩸. In ARISTOTLE (n=18K pts), apixa was SUPERIOR to warfarin for stroke (ITT)🧠 AND w significantly⬇️ major bleed🩸, AND even⬇️mortality. Image

#ACC21 late-breakers🧵
1/Antiplatelets: Let's start with #aspirin
❌ADAPTABLE :Aspirin 325 mg vs 81 mg in ASCVD pts
No difference in death/ MI/ stroke/major bleeding
💎pragmatic trial: EHR-identified pts
💎significant dose switching in 325 mg group

✅Host Exam: Aspirin vs Clopidogrel in chronic Maintenance monotherapy after #PCI w/ DES
#Clopidogrel monotherapy reduced composite of death, non-fatal MI, stroke, ACS re-admission, BARC >=3 bleeding, compared to #aspirin monotherapy.

✅TALOS- AMI: De-escalation ✅
In pts w/ no major events in 1st month after index PCI, de-escalation of DAPT from #ticagrelor to #clopidogrel is superior to tica-only DAPT in terms of net clinical benefit, with
⬇️decreased bleeding 🩸risk
- no increase in ischaemic risk

#WeeklyCardioReview AUGUSTUS trial #NeverTooLate #Apixaban in patients requiring DAPT. Two key aspects to discuss here: 1) Should Apixaban 5mg/BID be the only NOAC used with triple therapy? 2) Time to move to NOAC+Clopidogrel dual therapy? enjoy thread and comment! 😉
Summary: AUGUSTUS RCT 4,614 ppl requiring DAPT (ACS and-or PCI) factorial design: Apixa vs Warfarin (NOAC research question), and ASA vs placebo (triple vs dual tx question) for 6 months. Study powered for bleeding outcomes and had guts to assume no interaction, stay tuned
Major or clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding lower in Apixa vs Warfarin HR 0.69 (0.58-0.81; superiority P<0.001), ASA vs placebo 1.89 (1.59-2.24; placebo superiority P<0.001). Apixa Vs Warfa, and ASA vs placebo similar incidence of ischemic events
