Multicenter Analysis of Oral Anticoagulant-associated ICH - Part Two

描述
Stroke in general is one of the leading causes for death and disability in the industrialized world. Cardiac thrombo-embolisms are the major contributor to ischemic infarction with atrial fibrillation [afib] being the most frequent underlying pathology. As the prevalence of afib is constantly increasing with the ageing population, its established therapy (oral anticoagulation with vitamin-K antagonists [VKA] or non-vitamin-K-oral-anticoagulants [NOAC]) will increase alongside. Therefore, rates of OAC-ICH are expected to increase simultaneously. OAC-ICH is associated with larger ICH-volumes, an increased frequency of hematoma enlargement, and worse clinical outcome as compared to primary spontaneous ICH. Nevertheless, only limited evidence exists regarding acute treatment strategies. For the prevention of hematoma enlargement in VKA-ICH a large observational cohort study (n=1176) for the first time identified a time window (<4h) and INR level (INR<1.3) within which reversal of altered coagulation may show reduced rates of hematoma enlargement (1). For NOAC-ICH only very small sized investigations or case reports are available to address this pressing question - how to reverse anticoagulation in NOAC-ICH. Existing data does not even allow appropriate description of NOAC-ICH patients in terms of hematoma characteristics, re-bleeding rates, neurologic severity or functional outcome. Due to this dilemma and without available antidotes (except for dabigatran) reversal strategies are intensely debated and evidence based guideline recommendations do not exist. Further important treatment approaches in ICH-care such as (i) hematoma evacuation surgery, (ii) early anticoagulation or prophylaxis of systemic thromboembolisms, (iii) intraventricular fibrinolysis, have not been investigated as this growing sub-population (increasing incidence) has been vastly excluded from randomized trials.
Therefore, this observational cohort study (RETRACE-II) will try to strengthen the therapeutic evidence for OAC-ICH treatment by data-assessment of 19 nation-wide tertiary care hospitals in Germany. Patients will be identified from medical records by the diagnosis of ICH and concomitantly present intake of VKA (INR>1.5) or known intake of NOAC during a time period from 20011-2015. Only patients with ICH associated to OAC will be included, other secondary causes i.e. tumors, trauma, vascular malformations or aneurysms etc. will be excluded. Clinical data on demographics, medical history, pre-ICH medication exposures and laboratory results will be obtained by medical charts, institutional databases or prospective registries, supplemented by structured interviews or by review of available medical records at each individual institution. Patient-derived follow-up information will be corroborated by review of pertinent medical records. An estimated total number of greater 1000 patients will be reviewed for this investigation. In detail the following parameters will be evaluated: - prior medical history (including CHADS-VASC-Score, HAS-Bled Score, vascular risk factors), - functional status prior admission (mRS), - neurological admission status (NIHSS, GCS), - imaging characteristics, - time intervals: symptom onset until admission, imaging, therapy initiation, - mode of hemostatic therapy, - acute blood pressure management, - complications (hemorrhagic- or ischemic-events, infectious) and treatment (surgical treatment, mode of antithrombotic treatment or prophylaxis of systemic thromboembolism, intraventricular fibrinolysis, etc.), - mortality rates, - functional outcome (mRS).
