Simple intervention that makes sense! STRATUS #RCT trial led by Dr @DebSiegal and @PHRIresearch in @JAMA_current reported that using small-volume tubes for 🩸 collection⬇️ RBC transfusion in ICU patients. ↔️ in insufficient specimens.

VTE patients with brain cancer have an increased risk for intracranial bleeding during anticoagulation
Another study by the #RIETEregistry team, leaded by Cecilia Becattini and Michela Giustozzi

New 2023 ACR/EULAR Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) Classification Criteria are out!
Patients need at least 3 points each from the clinical and lab domains (See below) to be classified as having APS. This will be very useful to clinicians :)

Replying to @LeaderAvi
@LeaderAvi presents results from the ABC registry for AC with DOAC or LMWH in brain tumors.
- 🚫diff in rate of spontaneous (not caused by surgery) ICH between DOAC vs LMWH (but numerically ⬇️ with DOAC)

What is the risk of ICH in patients using DOAC vs LMWH with primary or metastatic brain tumor? @LeaderAvi presents the ABC study at #ISTH2023 – at Montréal, Québec

🚨Great guidance paper from @AnnaFalanga19 & @LeaderAvi et al. to help with management of these challenging situations.

Outstanding overview of ATE in patients with cancer by @LeaderAvi at #ISTH2023

LIVE NOW: @LeaderAvi #ISTH2023 SOA Address: Arterial thrombosis is ↑ in cancer & under-treated. Challenges in treatment include ↑ bleeding, drug-drug interactions & ↓ platelets. Cancer-specific #thrombosis management shown ⬇️ in #CoagCapsule. isth.org/23Capsules

Pts with cancer are at ⬆️ risk of ATE including IS 🧠
Cancer is a known cause of ESUS.
Tx of ESUS in cancer is not well defined.
Pts with cancer and ESUS have a ⬆️ risk of recurrent stroke with DOACs or ASA
Future RCTs are needed (and planned) to guide tx

Dr. @LeaderAvi providing a great overview of arterial thromboembolism (ATE) in patients with cancer. ATE are often neglected in CAT literature. ATE is common in new diagnosed patient and associates with higher mortality!

A Fib is common in patient with cancer. These patients are at higher risk if ATE but also at high risk of bleeding is also high. Good guidance are available to help clinicians #ISTH2023

Dr. @LeaderAvi presented the second phase of the ABC study which reported on the 65 patients with ICH on anticoagulation during the study. Majority of ICH are overt and intramural. VTE is frequent after ICH. No clear association between AC management and VTE post-ICH.

Severity of ICH was similar for patients on DOACs and LMWH @LeaderAvi #ISTH2023

📣Publication alert: finally published in @TheLancet , the ALIFE2 trial. So thankful to all women who participated and all colleagues who joined the study. LMWH does NOT improve live birth in women with #thrombophilia and #recurrent miscarriage.

Patients with cancer-associated #thrombosis and #thrombocytopenia have high risks of recurrent VTE and major bleeding. Future RCTs such as the START trial (NCT05255003) are needed!

If cerebral vein thrombosis (#CVT) fails to recanalise after 3-6 months, the risk of CVT recurrence is 8.8x higher. Suggests that anticoagulation length should vary depending on recanalisation status. Free PDF in @RPTHjournal.
