Dôsledný prístup lekára k antikoagulačnej liečbe je zásadným faktorom ovplyvňujúcim úspešnosť primárnej a sekundárnej prevencie ischemickej cievnej mozgovej príhody. V klinickej praxi neurológ rieši otázku antikoagulačnej liečby predovšetkým u pacientov s cievnou mozgovou príhodou, či už došlo k jej vzniku na liečbe antikoagulanciami, alebo vznikla u pacienta bez antikoagulačnej terapie, no diagnostický proces odhalil etiologický faktor vyžadujúci takýto typ liečby. Obzvlášť náročné je rozhodovanie o načasovaní antikoagulačnej liečby po príhode. Dôležitý je aj výber konkrétneho preparátu, jeho dávkovanie a zváženie individuálnych rizikových faktorov.
A consistent approach to anticoagulant therapy is a crucial factor influencing the success of primary and secondary prevention of ischaemic stroke. In clinical practice, neurologists deal with anticoagulant treatment mainly in patients who have experienced a stroke, whether it occurred during anticoagulant therapy or in those without such treatment but an etiological factor requiring anticoagulation was identified during the diagnostic process. Deciding on the timing of anticoagulant therapy after stroke is particularly challenging. Equally important is the choice of a drug, its dosage, and consideration of individual risk factors.

Spontánní intracerebrální hemoragie (SICH) jsou spojeny s řadou rizikových faktorů, které můžeme rozdělit na faktory ovlivnitelné a neovlivnitelné. Jejich nejvýznamnějším rizikovým faktorem je arteriální hypertenze. Péče o pacienty se SICH musí být komplexní a multidisciplinární. V akutní fázi se stává imperativem snaha o co nejrychlejší korekci arteriální hypertenze a zvrácení účinku antikoagulační terapie. Do budoucna lze recentně očekávat dosažení lepšího výsledného klinického stavu u vybraných pacientů se supratentoriální (především lobární) SICH operovaných do 24 h s využitím minimálně invazivní parafascikulární chirurgie.
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhages (SICH) are associated with a number of risk factors, which can be divided into controllable and uncontrollable factors. Their most important risk factor is arterial hypertension. The care for patients with SICH must be complex and multidisciplinary. In the acute phase, it becomes imperative to try to correct arterial hypertension and reverse the effect of anticoagulant therapy as quickly as possible. In the future, a better clinical outcome can recently be expected in selected patients with supratentorial (mainly lobar) SICH operated on within 24 h using minimally invasive parafascicular surgery.

An imbalance in coagulation is associated with cardiovascular events. For prevention and treatment, anticoagulants, currently mainly xabans and gatrans, are used. The purpose of the present study was to provide a head-to-head comparison since there are no studies directly evaluating these novel anticoagulants. An additional aim was to find whether selected anthropological and biochemical factors can affect their anticoagulant properties as they are used in fixed doses. In this cross-sectional study, blood from 50 generally healthy donors was collected, and coagulation responses to dabigatran, argatroban, rivaroxaban, and apixaban, at a concentration of 1 μM, were analyzed. Heparin was used as a positive control. Prothrombin time (PT) expressed as international normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) were measured and compared. Rivaroxaban was the most active according to PT/INR while argatroban according to aPTT. The ex vivo anticoagulant effect measured by INR correlated inversely with body mass index (BMI) in all four anticoagulants tested. Shortening of aPTT was associated with higher cholesterol and triglyceride levels. No sex-related differences were observed in response to the anticoagulant treatments. As this was an ex vivo study and pharmacokinetic factors were not included, the influence of BMI is of high therapeutic importance.

Proximal femur fractures (PFF) pose a major challenge in elderly patients with severe comorbidities and receiving antithrombotic therapy since according to the latest guidelines the surgery should be performed as soon as possible, preferably within 24 hours, to reduce mortality and morbidity. This review outlines the practical approach to surgical management of PFF that relies on increasing evidence of safety of early surgery in patients with PFF receiving antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy. We have also used information from the existing evidence-based guidelines for elective/planned surgery in patients with antithrombotic therapy. The practical approach can be summarised as follows: • Antiplatelet therapy - discontinuation of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and clopidogrel in monotherapy or in combination is not necessary prior to surgery. In case of bleeding, antifibrinolytic therapy is recommended as well as administration of platelet concentrate which is rarely needed. • In patients taking warfarin, reversal of its effects is recommended by early administration of vitamin K to allow surgery to be performed within 24 hours. Prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) as a second-line drug is reserved for extreme cases only. Warfarin therapy is resumed 24 hours after surgery. • Direct oral anticoagulants must be discontinued 24-48 hours prior to surgery, possibly longer depending on the type of drug, time of administration of the last dose, and renal function. In extreme cases, an antidote (idarucizumab, off-label andexanet) can be administered prior to surgery, or PCC in case they are unavailable. Anticoagulation therapy is resumed in 24-48 hours. • Neuraxial anaesthesia is possible when ASA is taken by the patient and in case of effective warfarin reversal. • In early surgery and rapid restart of anticoagulant therapy, bridging therapy with LMWH is not indicated except for in cases with extreme risk of thrombosis. Key words: proximal femur fracture, antiplatelet therapy, anticoagulant therapy, perioperative management.

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of genes encoding proteins responsible for the activation, transport, or metabolism of dabigatran and apixaban might be associated with a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in a cohort of adult patients treated with these drugs. No previous study has focused specifically on the association with gastrointestinal bleeding. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety-one patients treated with dabigatran or apixaban were genotyped for selected polymorphisms. The following polymorphisms were studied: ABCB1 gene rs1045642, rs4148738, rs1128503 and rs2032582; CES1 gene rs2244613, rs8192935 and rs2244614; and SULT1A1 gene rs9282861 and SULT1A2 gene rs1136703. Two groups divided by particular drugs and genotypes were compared in terms of the presence (bleeding group) or absence (nonbleeding group) of gastrointestinal bleeding. The genotype distribution was expressed via dominant and recessive models. RESULTS: In patients treated either with dabigatran or with apixaban, no evidence was found to support the association of gastrointestinal bleeding with any genotype for any of the studied SNPs. CONCLUSION: In both dabigatran- and apixaban-treated patients, no associations between the selected polymorphisms and gastrointestinal bleeding risk were found, however the results should be interpreted with caution because of the small cohort size.

BACKGROUND: Strokes after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) prophylaxis are generally less severe than those after warfarin prophylaxis-thought to be secondary to more hemorrhagic strokes with warfarin. Hemorrhagic strokes are similarly infrequent with direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) prophylaxis, so the primary subtype after either LAAC or DOAC prophylaxis is ischemic stroke (IS). OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to compare the severity of IS using the modified Rankin Scale in atrial fibrillation patients receiving prophylaxis with DOACs vs LAAC. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed of consecutive patients undergoing LAAC at 8 centers who developed an IS (ISLAAC) compared with contemporaneous consecutive patients who developed IS during treatment with DOACs (ISDOAC). The primary outcome was disabling/fatal stroke (modified Rankin Scale 3-5) at discharge and 3 months later. RESULTS: Compared with ISDOAC patients (n = 322), ISLAAC patients (n = 125) were older (age 77.2 ± 13.4 years vs 73.1 ± 11.9 years; P = 0.002), with higher HAS-BLED scores (3.0 vs 2.0; P = 0.004) and more frequent prior bleeding events (54.4% vs 23.6%; P < 0.001), but similar CHA2DS2-VASc scores (5.0 vs 5.0; P = 0.28). Strokes were less frequently disabling/fatal with ISLAAC than ISDOAC at both hospital discharge (38.3% vs 70.3%; P < 0.001) and 3 months later (33.3% vs 56.2%; P < 0.001). Differences in stroke severity persisted after propensity score matching. By multivariate regression analysis, ISLAAC was independently associated with fewer disabling/fatal strokes at discharge (OR: 0.22; 95% CI: 0.13-0.39; P < 0.001) and 3 months (OR: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.12-0.50; P < 0.001), and fewer deaths at 3 months (OR: 0.28; 95% CI: 0.12-0.64; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Ischemic strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation are less often disabling or fatal with LAAC than DOAC prophylaxis.

Collaterals improve recanalization in acute ischemic stroke patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis, but the mechanisms are poorly understood. To investigate it, an in vitro flow model of the middle cerebral artery was developed with or without collaterals. An occlusion was achieved using human blood clots. Recanalization time, thrombolysis (clot length decrease and red blood cell (RBC) release), pressure gradient across the clot and clot compaction were measured. Results showed that with or without collateral alteplase-treated RBC dominant clots showed recanalization time 98±23 min vs 130±35 min (difference 32 min, 95% CI -6-58 min), relative clot reduction 31.8±14.9% vs 30.3±13.2% (difference 1.5%, 95% CI 10.4-13.4%) and RBC release 0.30±0.07 vs 0.27±0.09 (difference 0.03, 95% CI 0.04-0.10). Similar results were observed with fibrin-dominant clots. In RBC dominant clots, the presence vs absence of collateral caused different pressure gradients across the clot 0.41±0.09 vs 0.70±0.09 mmHg (difference 0.29 mmHg, 95% CI -0.17-0.41 mmHg), and caused the reduction of initial clot compaction by 5%. These findings align with observations in patients, where collaterals shortened recanalization time. However, collaterals did not increase thrombolysis. Instead, they decreased the pressure gradient across the clot, resulting in less clot compaction and easier distal displacement of the clot.

BACKGROUND: Subclinical atrial fibrillation is short-lasting and asymptomatic and can usually be detected only by long-term continuous monitoring with pacemakers or defibrillators. Subclinical atrial fibrillation is associated with an increased risk of stroke by a factor of 2.5; however, treatment with oral anticoagulation is of uncertain benefit. METHODS: We conducted a trial involving patients with subclinical atrial fibrillation lasting 6 minutes to 24 hours. Patients were randomly assigned in a double-blind, double-dummy design to receive apixaban at a dose of 5 mg twice daily (2.5 mg twice daily when indicated) or aspirin at a dose of 81 mg daily. The trial medication was discontinued and anticoagulation started if subclinical atrial fibrillation lasting more than 24 hours or clinical atrial fibrillation developed. The primary efficacy outcome, stroke or systemic embolism, was assessed in the intention-to-treat population (all the patients who had undergone randomization); the primary safety outcome, major bleeding, was assessed in the on-treatment population (all the patients who had undergone randomization and received at least one dose of the assigned trial drug, with follow-up censored 5 days after permanent discontinuation of trial medication for any reason). RESULTS: We included 4012 patients with a mean (±SD) age of 76.8±7.6 years and a mean CHA2DS2-VASc score of 3.9±1.1 (scores range from 0 to 9, with higher scores indicating a higher risk of stroke); 36.1% of the patients were women. After a mean follow-up of 3.5±1.8 years, stroke or systemic embolism occurred in 55 patients in the apixaban group (0.78% per patient-year) and in 86 patients in the aspirin group (1.24% per patient-year) (hazard ratio, 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.45 to 0.88; P = 0.007). In the on-treatment population, the rate of major bleeding was 1.71% per patient-year in the apixaban group and 0.94% per patient-year in the aspirin group (hazard ratio, 1.80; 95% CI, 1.26 to 2.57; P = 0.001). Fatal bleeding occurred in 5 patients in the apixaban group and 8 patients in the aspirin group. CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with subclinical atrial fibrillation, apixaban resulted in a lower risk of stroke or systemic embolism than aspirin but a higher risk of major bleeding.

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a devastating and fatal complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). CS can affect the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of medications. The unique properties of cangrelor make it the optimal P2Y12 inhibitor for CS-AMI, in terms of both efficacy and safety. The DAPT-SHOCK-AMI trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03551964; EudraCT: 2018-002161-19) will assess the benefits of cangrelor in patients with an initial CS-AMI undergoing primary angioplasty. This randomised, multicentre, placebo-controlled trial of approximately 550 patients (with an allowed 10% increase) in 5 countries using a double-blind design will compare initial P2Y12 inhibitor treatment strategies in patients with CS-AMI of (A) intravenous cangrelor and (B) ticagrelor administered as crushed tablets at a loading dose of 180 mg. The primary clinical endpoint is a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), or stroke within 30 days. The main secondary endpoints are (1) the net clinical endpoint, defined as death, MI, urgent revascularisation of the infarct-related artery, stroke, or major bleeding as defined by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria; (2) cardiovascular-related death, MI, urgent revascularisation, or heart failure; (3) heart failure; and (4) cardiovascular-related death, all (1-4) within 1 year after study enrolment. A platelet reactivity study that tests the laboratory antiplatelet benefits of cangrelor, when given in addition to standard antiplatelet therapy, will be conducted using vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein phosphorylation. The primary laboratory endpoints are the periprocedural rate of onset and the proportion of patients who achieve effective P2Y12 inhibition. The DAPT-SHOCK-AMI study is the first randomised trial to evaluate the benefits of cangrelor in patients with CS-AMI.
