Side effects may include bleeding, most commonly from the nose, gastrointestinal tract (GI) or genitourinary system. [2] Compared to the risk of bleeding with warfarin use, direct factor Xa inhibitors have a higher risk of GI bleeding, but lower risk of bleeding in the brain. [2]
This can be done using validated bleeding risk scores, such as the HEMORR 2 HAGES or HAS-BLED scores. [33] The HAS-BLED score is recommended in guidelines, to identify the high risk patient for regular review and followup and to address the reversible risk factors for bleeding (e.g. uncontrolled hypertension, labile INRS, excess alcohol use or ...
Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer Announce Publication of ARISTOTLE Subanalysis in Circulation Subgroup analysis demonstrates that the treatment effects of Eliquis ® (apixaban) vs. warfarin, across ...
HAS-BLED is a scoring system developed to assess 1-year risk of major bleeding in people taking anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation (AF). It was developed in 2010 with data from 3,978 people in the Euro Heart Survey. [1] Major bleeding is defined as being intracranial bleedings, hospitalization, hemoglobin decrease > 2 g/dL, and/or ...
In addition, results of this subanalysis showed that, in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, the reduction in intracranial bleeding with ELIQUIS compared to warfarin tended to be ...
U.S. FDA Approves ELIQUIS ® (apixaban) to Reduce the Risk of Stroke and Systemic Embolism in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation ELIQUIS Demonstrated Superior Risk Reductions Versus ...
Apixaban is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in people with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and at least one of the following risk factors: prior stroke or transient ischemic attack, age 75 years or older, diabetes, or symptomatic heart failure.
Rates of composite major bleeding or clinically relevant non-major bleeding were 2.7% in the placebo group, 3.2% in the ELIQUIS 2.5 mg group, and 4.3% in the ELIQUIS 5 mg group.
