Could direct-acting oral anticoagulant be a possible cause of delayed pseudoaneurysm? A case report
Delayed iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm (IPA) is very rare. We aimed to present a case of delayed femoral IPA using apixaban, which developed four months after coronary intervention (PCI). A 75-year-old female patient who had PCI four months ago presented with

Coagulation and heparin requirements during ablation in patients under oral anticoagulant drugs
Background Anticoagulation during catheter ablation should be closely monitored with activated clotting time (ACT). However vitamin K antagonists (VKA) or direct oral anticoagulant drugs (DOAC) may act differently on ACT and on heparin needs.

ABSTRACT Background Atrial high‐rate episodes (AHRE) detected by cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are associated with increased thromboembolic risk, yet their clinical significance and optimal anticoagulation strategy remain uncertain, particularly in the absence of electrocardiogram (ECG)‐confirmed atrial fibrillation.

In a nutshell:Testing DOAC levels—when, why and what it means? [PDF]
Plasma direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) levels are not routinely required for the majority of patients; however, they may provide valuable information in urgent clinical situations, including perioperative management, life- or limb-threatening bleeding ...

Viscoelastic monitoring of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC): Viscoeslastic monitoring of DOAC
The management of procedures at risk of major or critical bleeding in patients treated with direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) is challenging, making urgent monitoring to detect and quantify residual effects, optimal for accurate clinical decision making.

ABSTRACT Background Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are prescribed using fixed dosing regimens, despite limited evidence on their pharmacokinetic behavior in nursing home residents. Participants and Setting One hundred nursing home residents are receiving apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran, or edoxaban in multiple long‐term care facilities in the ...

ABSTRACT Background Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are the first‐line therapy for stroke prevention in non‐valvular atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism. While evidence supports their continuation during routine dental procedures such as tooth extractions, data on oral soft tissue biopsies remain limited.

Management of Left Atrial Appendage Thrombi and Spontaneous Echo Contrast
ABSTRACT Background To analyze the efficacy and safety of various anticoagulation strategies/regimen used for managing thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage. Methods Thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage was detected via transesophageal echocardiography in 83 patients, most often during a stroke
