Clinical, Review, Journal: Recanalisation therapies for acute ischaemic stroke in patients on direct oral anticoagulants. (Pubmed Central) - Jan 4, 2022 In patients on DOAC therapy with large vessel occlusion, decision for intravenous thrombolysis should not delay thrombectomy (eg, direct thrombectomy or immediate transfer to a thrombectomy-capable centre recommended). Precision medicine using a tailored approach combining clinicoradiological information (ie, penumbra and vessel status), anticoagulant activity and use of specific reversal agents only if necessary seems a reasonable choice.

(Chapman #4 (Sunset Center)) - Dec 20, 2021 - Abstract #WSMRF2022WSMRF_176; Interestingly, no thrombotic events were reported in ANNEXA-4 patients who restarted anticoagulation protocols. Thus, it may be advisable to monitor patients closely and broadly for thrombotic events until future studies update protocols for resuming anticoagulation therapy after reversal treatment.

(Pubmed Central) - Dec 16, 2021 There are concerns about the lack of a reversal strategy in case of serious bleeds or need for emergency surgery in situations when the antidote andexanet alfa is not available...To determine the lowest concentration of aPCC sufficient to reverse the effect of rivaroxaban and apixaban...Concentrations of 0.56 U/mL and higher, caused significantly higher ETP than baseline in apixaban-containing samples (P < 0.05). aPCC concentrations lower than previously reported were effective in reversing the effect of FXa inhibitors in vitro.

Clinical, Review, Journal: Emergency cardiac surgery in patients on oral anticoagulants and antiplatelet medications. (Pubmed Central) - Dec 16, 2021 Four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate is considered in patients on oral anticoagulants if CPB needs to be instituted quickly. Specific reversal agents such as idarucizumab and andexanet alfa can be considered if significant tissue dissection is anticipated, such as redo sternotomy, but are costly and may lead to heparin resistance and anticoagulant rebound.

Journal: Treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage: From specific interventions to bundles of care. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 27, 2021 Early prognostication is difficult, and early do-not-resuscitate orders or withdrawal of active care should be used judiciously in the first 24-48 h of care. Implementation of acute ICH care can be challenging, and using a care bundle approach, with regular monitoring of data and improvement of care processes can ensure consistent and optimal care for all patients.

Prospective studies are needed to identify a superior reversal agent when comparing andexanet alfa to hospital standard of care (4F-PCC or aPCC) and to further explore the optimal dosing strategy for patients with ICH associated with apixaban or rivaroxaban use.
