Patients with atrial fibrillation, particularly older patients, are frequently at a high risk of bleeding. In patients with atrial fibrillation, abelacimab reduced rates of bleeding relative to rivaroxaban regardless of bleeding risk, with greater absolute safety benefit in those at higher bleeding risk.

BackgroundPercutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) serves as an alternative prophylactic strategy for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) who cannot undergo anti-coagulation therapy. The pericardial effusion or tamponade likely resulted from damage to the atrial appendage during LAAC device insertion.

The primary efficacy and safety end points were stroke or systemic embolism and major bleeding (International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis definition), respectively. The stroke or systemic embolism rate was lower with edoxaban than placebo in both weight groups (≤45 kg: hazard ratio [HR], 0.36 [95% CI, 0.16–0.80];

Left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus is the primary cause of stroke and systemic embolism in atrial fibrillation (AF). Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) effectively reduce the prevalence of LAA thrombosis and stroke risk.

AI-ECG prediction models developed at our institution can evaluate the probability of atrial fibrillation (AF) and estimate a patients age based on a normal sinus rhythm (NSR) ECG. Migraine with aura(MwA) is associated with an increased risk of stroke and adverse vascular outcomes compared to those with migraine without aura (MwoA).

Patients were drawn from neurology, cardiology, and other services. Descriptive statistics were used to compare trends across these groups.Results:Of the 3,966 patients, AF was the most common diagnosis (47.16% self-pay, 67.14% insured), followed by DVT and PE.

The rhythm is atrial fibrillation. As in all ischemia interpretations with OMI findings, the findings can be due to type 1 AMI (example: acute coronary plaque rupture and thrombosis) or type 2 AMI (with or without fixed CAD, with severe regional supply/demand mismatch essentially equaling zero blood flow).
