Early Anticoagulation for Recurrent Ischemic Stroke despite the Presence of Ventricular Bleeding
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Ischemic stroke due to atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with a high risk of recurrence, which may occur early after the index event [1]. Oral anticoagulant therapy (OAT) is effective in preventing stroke recurrence and should be initiated as soon as possible [2]. However, the choice of the best timing to start OAT remains controversial and requires an accurate evaluation of the patient clinical conditions, to limit the risk of symptomatic hemorrhagic transformation (sHT).

Anticoagulation in childhood-onset arterial ischemic stroke with non-moyamoya arteriopathy: findings from the Colorado and German (COAG) collaboration.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Childhood arterial ischemic stroke treatment guidelines recommend extended anticoagulation in cardioembolism and dissection. We sought to investigate the safety of extended anticoagulation in childhood arterial ischemic stroke with nonmoyamoya arteriopathy, for which the risk of recurrent stroke is high. METHODS Thirty-seven patients with childhood-onset arterial ischem...
متن کاملTiming of anticoagulation therapy in patients with acute cardioembolic stroke.
(TIA) associated with atrial fibrillation (AF), anticoagulation therapy within 14 days after onset is an option,3 but the appropriate timing remains unclear. Furthermore, production of protein C and protein S, which have anticoagulant activity, is blocked for several days after treatment with warfarin, which results in hypercoagulability and a probable increased risk for ischemic stroke.4 Non-v...
متن کاملEmergent use of anticoagulation for treatment of patients with ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND Several clinical trials have tested the potential utility of emergent anticoagulation for acute ischemic stroke. SUMMARY OF REVIEW Rather than performing a meta-analysis that combines the data from several trials, this review focuses on individual studies. Although these trials do have inherent limitations, they demonstrate that emergent use of an anticoagulant is associated with a...
متن کاملPrevalence, main determinants, and early outcome of patients with atrial fibrillation hospitalized with ischemic stroke: evaluation of the value of risk assessment scores for predicting risk of stroke or major bleeding following anticoagulation therapy.
BACKGROUND Despite controllable nature of atrial fibrillation in most patients, it increases the risk of atrial thrombosis leading to ischemic stroke. The researchers assessed the underlying risk factors for brain stroke and also major bleeding in patients with ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation. METHODS Among 900 patients hospitalized with the diagnosis of ischemic brain stroke between ...
متن کاملAnticoagulation Use and Clinical Outcomes After Major Bleeding on Dabigatran or Warfarin in Atrial Fibrillation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Little is known about the clinical outcomes associated with posthemorrhage anticoagulation resumption for atrial fibrillation. This study had 2 objectives: first, to evaluate anticoagulation use after a first major bleed on warfarin or dabigatran and, second, to compare effectiveness and safety outcomes between patients discontinuing anticoagulation after a major bleed an...
