Definitions
• Coagulation - The physiologic process by which blood clots
• Hemostasis - Physiologic clotting of blood in response to injury or vascular leakage (“Keeping blood where it belongs”)
• Thrombosis - Pathologic clotting of blood (“Hemostasis in the wrong place”)

Coagulation in perspective:Thrombosis vs. hemostasis
“GOOD CLOT”
“BAD CLOT”
Issues of thrombosis and hemostasis often coexist in
the very same patient

Nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
• NVAF is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in the U.S. affecting an estimated 2.7 million to 6.1 million adults in the United States and over 15 million patients worldwide.
• It is widely believed that the incidence and prevalence of atrial fibrillation will continue to rise, perhaps doubling over the next 25 years.
• The lifetime risk of developing atrial fibrillation after the age of 40 is as high as 25%, and is influenced by a variety of factors such as the development or coexistence of thyroid disease, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, sleep apnea, heart failure, myocardial ischemia and structural heart disease.

Nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
• Thromboembolic disease, in particular stroke, remains the most significant and feared complication of atrial fibrillation.
• Atrial fibrillation is associated with 15% of strokes in people of all ages and 30% of strokes in people > 80 y.o.
• There are an estimated 500,000 hospitalizations primarily for atrial fibrillation annually in the U.S.
• It is estimated that atrial fibrillation contributes to at least 100,000 deaths per year, many as a consequence of stroke.

Pros and cons of NOACs
Advantages DisadvantagesRapid onset/offset of action Use is contraindicated or dose reduction is
required in patients with severe CKD
Absence of food interactions Limited availability of assays for measuring drug levels
Limited hepatic metabolism/few strong DDIs Higher drug acquisition costsWide therapeutic window Rapid decline in effect if doses are missedLower risk of intracranial hemorrhage No specific antidoteLower potential risk of bleeding complications Increased risk for GI bleeding
Fixed dosing Contraindicated in patients with mechanical heart valves

RELY: Conclusions
• In patients with atrial fibrillation, dabigatran given at a dose of 110 mg BID was associated with rates of stroke and systemic embolism that were similar to those associated with warfarin, as well as lower rates of major haemorrhage
• Dabigatran administered at a dose of 150 mg BID, as compared with warfarin, was associated with lower rates of stroke and systemic embolism but similar rates of major haemorrhage

Apixaban vs. warfarin in NVAF
Treatment with apixaban as compared to warfarin in patients with AF and at least one additional risk factor for stroke:• Reduces stroke and systemic embolism by 21%
(p=0.01)• Reduces major bleeding by 31% (p<0.001)• Reduces mortality by 11% (p=0.047)with consistent effects across all major subgroups and with fewer study drug discontinuations on apixaban than on warfarin, consistent with good tolerability.

Apixaban vs. warfarin in NVAF
In patients with atrial fibrillation, apixaban is
superior to warfarin at preventing stroke or
systemic embolism, causes less bleeding, and
results in lower mortality.

Summary
70
• Systemic anticoagulation has demonstrated significant benefit
(reduced vascular morbidity/mortality) across a wide range of
thrombosis states
• NVAF remains a large (and growing) global medical problem which
exacts in large part, through increased thromboembolic risk
• AF-associated CVAs are more likely to be more morbid and more
likely fatal than non-AF associated CVAs
• Warfarin anticoagulation has proven benefit across a wide variety of
thrombosis states but is frequently associated with unacceptably low
TTR and management challenges
![Page 71: University of Chicago Medical Center Chicago, IL Janet Friant, MSN, APN-BC, AACC What are all of these blood thinners? A review of oral anticoagulation](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cee5503460f949bb662/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Summary
71
• The novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) when used appropriately, offer
more homogeneous treatment effect than dose-adjusted warfarin with
comparable or lower rates of major bleeding
• Hepatic function, renal function and co-administration of medications
impacting NOAC metabolism serve as important considerations when
electing to switch to a NOAC
• Co-administration of oral anticoagulants with oral antiplatelet therapy
increases the risk of major bleeding
