Abstract

Oral anticoagulant (OAT)-associated intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a life-threatening emergency for which prothrombin complex concentrates (PCC) are considered first-line reversal agents. The only approved PCC in the USA for warfarin-associated ICH is non-activated PCC. Little data are available regarding the safety and effectiveness of factor VIII inhibitor bypassing activity (FEIBA) which is an activated prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC). The aim of this analysis was to assess the safety and effectiveness of FEIBA compared to fresh frozen plasma (FFP) for reversal of OAT-associated ICH. Data were retrospectively collected to compare coagulation markers and in-hospital clinical outcomes in patients who received aPCC with or without FFP versus FFP alone for the reversal of OAT-associated ICH. Eighty-four patients met inclusion criteria; 50 patients received FFP alone, and 34 patients received FEIBA (mean dose 20 U/kg) with or without FFP for OAT-associated ICH. The proportion of diagnosed thrombotic events during hospitalization was similar in both groups (8% in the FFP group vs. 12% in the FEIBA group; P = 0.56). Median time to INR < 1.5 was achieved faster in the FEIBA group versus the FFP group (0.5 h [IQR 0.5-1.] vs. 10 h [IQR 5-16.3], respectively; P < 0.001) reflecting a trend toward shorter median time to neurosurgical intervention. Hematoma expansion, length of stay, and all-cause mortality were similar between both groups. Administration of FEIBA does not appear to increase the risk of thrombotic events compared with FFP. FEIBA administration resulted in faster INR reversal with a trend toward shorter time to neurosurgical intervention. However, there was no difference in hematoma expansion, mortality or length of stay.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 October 2017.
All research outputs
#18,573,839
of 23,005,189 outputs
Outputs from Neurocritical Care
#1,284
of 1,508 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#238,655
of 312,069 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Neurocritical Care
#17
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,005,189 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,508 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.4. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 312,069 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
