    RE-VERSE AD, a prospective multicentric cohort study, examined the effect of idarucizumab on 2 cohorts of patients anticoagulated with dabigatran - in cohort A in patients with uncontrollable or life threatening bleeding, in cohort B in patients who undergo acute surgery. Within the study patients were intravenously administered 5 g antidote divided into 2 doses per 2.5 g within 15 min to eliminate the anticoagulation effect of dabigatran. A series of case studies is presented to describe the use of idarucizumab within the RE-VERSE AD study and in clinical practice in the period of 2015-2016 at the University Hospital Hradec Králové. The included examples illustrate the benefit of dabigatran as the only drug so far from the group of direct oral anticoagulants which has an antidote.Key words: antidote - bleeding - dabigatran - direct oral anticoagulants - DOAC - high risk of bleeding - idarucizumab - intervention.

    Anticoagulant Drugs: Vitamin K Antagonists and Direct Oral Anticoagulants

    Oral anticoagulants are vital tools in preventing and treating blood clotting disorders. This diverse class of medications can be categorized as vitamin K antagonists, exemplified by warfarin, and direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs), such as dabigatran, as well as factor Xa inhibitors, including rivaroxaban.
    Warfarin, a prominent vitamin K antagonist family member, exerts its effect by inhibiting the enzyme VKORC1 (vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1). By hindering this enzyme, warfarin...

    Thoracic, aortic arch and abdominal aneurysms are significant vascular conditions that can present with various clinical manifestations and lead to serious complications. Understanding these manifestations and the appropriate diagnostic studies is essential for effective management and treatment.Thoracic Aortic AneurysmsThoracic aortic aneurysms often remain asymptomatic until they reach a size that impinges on adjacent structures. They typically cause deep, diffuse chest pain that radiates to...

    Anticoagulant Drugs: Low-Molecular-Weight Heparins

    Hemostasis is a crucial process that prevents excessive blood loss from damaged blood vessels. It involves various mechanisms such as vasoconstriction, platelet adhesion and activation, and fibrin formation. The importance of each mechanism depends on the type of vessel injury. In contrast, thrombosis is the abnormal formation of a blood clot within the blood vessels, leading to potential complications if the clot obstructs blood flow. Thrombosis can be caused by increased coagulability of the...

    Hypertension III: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

    Hypertension is asymptomatic and also referred to as the "silent killer" until it progresses to a severe stage or causes target organ disease. Patients may experience symptoms stemming from the strain on blood vessels and tissues in various organs or the heart's increased workload.Physical exams might show no abnormalities other than high blood pressure. Signs of vascular damage, when present, correspond to the organs supplied by the affected vessels, leading to target organ damage. For...

    Venous Thrombosis II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

    The key difference between Superficial Vein Thrombosis (SVT) and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) lies in their location and severity.Clinical ManifestationsSVT typically presents with localized pain, tenderness, and redness along the course of a superficial vein, often accompanied by a palpable, cord-like structure under the skin. This condition is usually less dangerous than DVT but can be uncomfortable and may lead to complications such as cellulitis or, rarely, a clot extension into the deep...
