Fischer, U; Trelle, S; Branca, M; Salanti, G; Paciaroni, M; Ferrari, C; Abend, S; Beyeler, S; Strbian, D; Thomalla, G; Ntaios, G; Bonati, L; Michel, PRationale: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) are highly effective in preventing ischaemic strokes in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is unclear how soon they should be started after acute ischaemic stroke (AIS). Early initiation may reduce early risk of recurrence but might increase the risk of haemorrhagic complications. Aim: To estimate the safety and efficacy of early initiation of DOACs co...
Dabigatran Initiation in Patients with Non-Valvular AF and First Acute Ischaemi...
Escudero-Martinez, I; Mazya, M; Teutsch, C; Lesko, N; Gdovinova, Z; Barbarini, L; Fryze, W; Karlinski, M; Kobayashi, A; Krastev, G; Paiva Nunes, ABackground and objective: The optimal timing for initiation of dabigatran after acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) is not established. We aimed to evaluate initiation timing and clinical outcomes of dabigatran in AIS patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Design: Retrospective study based on prospectively collected data in SITS (Safe Implementation of Treatment in Stroke) Thrombolysis and Thrombectomy...
