How do we implement ANNEXXa-I into our Clinical Practice?

November 30, 2023
For acute care physicians, anticoagulated patients presenting with intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is an incredibly challenging clinical scenario. ANNEXa-I is a randomized, controlled, clinical trial which provides clinicians with important information on appropriate reversal of anticoagualtion to optimally care for these patients.

Real World Evidence for Management of Severe Bleeding in the Anticoagulated Patient: Impact of Specific Reversal Therapy for Intracranial Hemorrhage and Gastrointestinal Bleeding

July 28, 2023

Real World studies can provide the foundational support necessary for clinicians to effectively manage anticoagulated patients with severe, often life-threatening intracranial and gastrointestinal bleeding. While randomized controlled clinical trials have provided the initial data necessary for appropriate use of reversal agents such as andexanet alfa for Factor Xa associated bleeding, broader studies enrolling thousands of patients, many with significant co-morbidities, are extremely valuable to clinicians. New information regarding the randomized controlled trial ANEXXA-I, which was halted due to andexanet alfa efficacy, provides additional information supporting reversal therapy for severe bleeding.

Blocking and Tackling - The Fundamentals of Stroke CT Interpretation

Haemin Go posted on 5/19/2021

Moderator: William A. Knight IV, MD, FACEP, FNCS
Other Participants: Charles Kircher, MD, FAHA

Emergency Medicine and Neurocritical Care physician, Charles Kircher, MD discusses the Emergency Medicine approach to interpreting the non-contrast head CT in patients with suspected acute ischemic stroke in this podcast recorded with Dr. William Knight. Dr. Kircher breaks down the basics of the initial approach to the stroke head CT. From "ruling out" hemorrhage to recognizing prior stroke, intracranial lesions, and prior neurologic surgery, Drs. Kircher and Knight discuss the Emergency Medicine approach and role in CT interpretation. They discuss tricky areas to not miss, the importance of symmetry and briefly review the ASPECTS score of grading early brain ischemia.
