Basic objectives -Others

Patients with atrial fibrillation should be treated by the antithrombotic therapy to prevent ischemic stroke. Recently, a novel anticoagulants (NOACs) are introduced and substitute for warfarin because of their safety and efficacy. However, it is still unclear that the current status of the risk of stroke and intracranial hemorrhage in patients with atrial fibrillation who taking NOACs.

Results

Background:We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study to elucidate the characteristics of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in patients with atrial fibrillation treated with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs).
Methods and Results:We sent a questionnaire to the directors of 241 stroke centers in Japan to establish the clinical characteristics of NOAC-associated cerebral hemorrhage (CH), including hematoma size, hematoma enlargement (HE) and in-hospital mortality of patients treated in their institutions. We undertook a literature review to establish the clinical characteristics of warfarin-associated CH and compared these with our data. We received 174 responses (72.2%), of which 67 (38.5%) gave anonymous details of 130 eligible patients (male, 67.7%; mean age, 77.3+-8.3 years, in-hospital mortality rate, 11.5%). We judged that 87 of the 130 patients had presented with CH: one-fifth had taken antiplatelet drugs. We found that the incidences of HE and mortality in the 87 patients presenting with NOAC-associated CH were lower than would have been expected in those with warfarin-associated CH (17% vs. 26%, and 16% vs. 35%, respectively).
Conclusions:More than half the stroke center directors who responded to our questionnaire had not experienced cases of NOAC-associated ICH. Compared with warfarin, NOACs appear to present a lower risk of HE and death in patients with atrial fibrillation who develop CH.
