Vet World 2024; 17:796-803. [PMID: 38798301 PMCID: PMC11111715 DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2024.796-803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Background and Aim Cardiogenic embolism (CE) is a common complication of feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), leading to severe clinical symptoms. This study compared the effects of rivaroxaban and enoxaparin combined with clopidogrel on cats. Materials and Methods This was a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial. In this study, rivaroxaban or enoxaparin plus clopidogrel was prescribed to 23 cats for at least one of the following events: Abnormal movement of the anterior mitral leaflet during systole, enlargement of the left atrium, spontaneous echocardiographic contrast, or presence of arterial thromboembolism. Oral rivaroxaban (2.5 mg, q24 h) was prescribed to six cats. Subcutaneous injections of enoxaparin (1 mg/kg, q24 h) plus oral clopidogrel (3 mg/kg, PO q24 h) for 60 days were administered to 17 cats. Renal insufficiency and bleeding complications were observed. Plasma concentrations of D-dimer, prothrombin time (PT), partial thromboplastin time, and international normalized ratio (INR) were evaluated. We analyzed the relationship between echocardiography parameters and the effects of coagulation. Blood samples were collected from all cats at baseline and at 1 and 2 months post-treatment. Results Rivaroxaban alone and in combination with enoxaparin and clopidogrel significantly affected PT and INR. In cats treated with 2.5 mg/kg rivaroxaban for 60 days, no bleeding or recurrence of thrombus formation was observed. These data support the use of rivaroxaban for the treatment of HCM-associated thromboembolism in cats. Conclusion Treatment of HCM-associated thromboembolism with rivaroxaban alone demonstrated clinical effectiveness with no clinical complications in cats.

Abstract
The concept of extracorporeal organ support (ECOS) encompasses kidney, respiratory, cardiac and hepatic support. In an era of increasing incidence and survival of patients with single or multiple organ failure, knowledge on both multiorgan crosstalk and the physiopathological consequences of extracorporeal organ support have become increasingly important. Immerse within the cross-talk of multiple organ failure (MOF), Acute kidney injury (AKI) may be a part of the clinical presentation in patients undergoing ECOS, either as a concurrent clinical issue since the very start of ECOS or as a de novo event at any point in the clinical course. At any point during the clinical course of a patient with single or multiple organ failure undergoing ECOS, renal function may improve or deteriorate, as a result of the interaction of multiple factors, including multiorgan crosstalk and physiological consequences of ECOS. Common physiopathological ways in which ECOS may influence renal function includes: 1) multiorgan crosstalk (preexisting or de-novo 2)Hemodynamic changes and 3) ECOS-associated coagulation abnormalities and 3) Also, cytokine profile switch, neurohumoral changes and toxins clearance may contribute to the expected physiological changes related to ECOS. The main objective of this review is to summarize the described mechanisms influencing the renal function during the course of ECOS, including renal replacement therapy, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation/carbon dioxide removal and albumin dialysis.

Abstract
Recently, the atrial fibrillation treatment guidelines have been updated to now recommend Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) as the preferred alternative to warfarin for systemic embolism and stroke prevention in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. NOACs have major pharmacologic advantages over warfarin, although the most common complications are gastrointestinal bleeding and NOAC-induced nephropathy within 6 weeks after starting therapy, as several recent case-reports stated. We are reporting for the first time a chronic delayed adverse reaction (regularly reported to Authorities) observed in an 82-year-old woman 27 months after starting dabigatran (110 mg twice a day), characterized by concomitant gastrointestinal bleeding and nephropathy. Idarucizumab administration immediately improved both bleeding and renal parameters. Moreover, we are going to highlight the importance of the compliance, the adherence to the therapeutic plan and the supervision of the Hospital Pharmacy on drug prescriptions. In fact in our case, dabigatran was firstly prescribed by the neurologist and delivered by the hospital pharmacy, but the patient continued the treatment for 27 months, prescribed by general practitioner without any laboratory control. This lack of supervision certainly contributed to the onset of the adverse reaction reported.

Thromboembolic and Bleeding Risk in Atrial Fibrillation Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease: Role of Anticoagulation Therapy. J Clin Med 2020; 10:jcm10010083. [PMID: 33379379 PMCID: PMC7796391 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10010083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2020] [Revised: 12/21/2020] [Accepted: 12/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are strictly related; several independent risk factors of AF are often frequent in CKD patients. AF prevalence is very common among these patients, ranging between 15% and 20% in advanced stages of CKD. Moreover, the results of several studies showed that AF patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) have a higher mortality rate than patients with preserved renal function due to an increased incidence of stroke and an unpredicted elevated hemorrhagic risk. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are currently contraindicated in patients with ESRD and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs), remaining the only drugs allowed, although they show numerous critical issues such as a narrow therapeutic window, increased tissue calcification and an unfavorable risk/benefit ratio with low stroke prevention effect and augmented risk of major bleeding. The purpose of this review is to shed light on the applications of DOAC therapy in CKD patients, especially in ESRD patients.
