Global Thrombosis Test - a possible monitoring system for the effects and safety of dabigatran [PDF]
© Otsui et al. 2015BACKGROUND: Dabigatran is an alternative to warfarin (WF) for the thromboprophylaxis of stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The advantage of dabigatran over WF is that monitoring is not required; however, a

Idarucizumab more effectively reverses the anticoagulant effects of dabigatran acylglucuronide than dabigatran [PDF]
Dabigatran acylglucuronide, an active metabolite of dabigatran, exhibits higher plasma concentrations and distinct anticoagulant effects compared to dabigatran, suggesting that it may play a more significant role in overall anticoagulant activity than ...

No influence of dabigatran anticoagulation on hemorrhagic transformation in an experimental model of ischemic stroke [PDF]
Background: Dabigatran etexilate (DE) is a new oral direct thrombin inhibitor. Clinical trials point towards a favourable risk-to-benefit profile of DE compared to warfarin. In this study, we evaluated whether hemorrhagic transformation (HT) occurs after

Dabigatran in Cerebral Sinus Vein Thrombosis and Thrombophilia
Background and Purpose: Thrombophilic gene alterations are a major risk factor for cerebral sinus vein thrombosis (CSVT). Up to 30% of all patients with cerebral sinus vein thrombosis (CSVT) are found to have thrombophilic defects such as prothrombin ...
