Apixaban rarely raises INR to clinically significant levels. An analysis by DCRI fellow Seamus Hughes showed that, among 8,642 ARISTOTLE patients, the median INR was just 1.18. Elevated INR on a DOAC? Consider non-drug causes. #ACC26 #AFib #cvCoag #CardioSky
CHAMPION-AF: Watchman FLEX met non-inferiority vs. NOACs for stroke prevention in #AFib and significantly cut bleeding at 3 years. Congrats to Saibal Kar and the full team, including DCRI's Chris Granger on the steering committee. #ACC26 #cvLAAoccluder #CardioSky
