How do we implement ANNEXXa-I into our Clinical Practice?

November 30, 2023
For acute care physicians, anticoagulated patients presenting with intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is an incredibly challenging clinical scenario. ANNEXa-I is a randomized, controlled, clinical trial which provides clinicians with important information on appropriate reversal of anticoagualtion to optimally care for these patients.

Real World Evidence for Management of Severe Bleeding in the Anticoagulated Patient: Impact of Specific Reversal Therapy for Intracranial Hemorrhage and Gastrointestinal Bleeding

July 28, 2023

Real World studies can provide the foundational support necessary for clinicians to effectively manage anticoagulated patients with severe, often life-threatening intracranial and gastrointestinal bleeding. While randomized controlled clinical trials have provided the initial data necessary for appropriate use of reversal agents such as andexanet alfa for Factor Xa associated bleeding, broader studies enrolling thousands of patients, many with significant co-morbidities, are extremely valuable to clinicians. New information regarding the randomized controlled trial ANEXXA-I, which was halted due to andexanet alfa efficacy, provides additional information supporting reversal therapy for severe bleeding.

Moderator:William A. Knight IV, MD, FACEP, FNCS
Other Participants: Kyle B. Walsh, MD, MS

Heparin in stroke remains controversial. Understanding the history and data and essential to mastering stroke care.

Dr. Kyle Walsh, an Emergency Medicine trained Neurointensivist, researcher and stroke physician shares his expertise with Dr. Bill Knight as they discuss heparin in stroke care. Not all heparin is bad,  but its use has been deemphasized over the years.  What are the data and how do they inform the use of heparin in acute stroke? Moreover, is heparin in acute ischemic stroke really dead?
