Despite the lack of evidence available in this setting, a number of clinical trials carried out in recent years have attempted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of triple antithrombotic therapy (i.e. dual antiplatelet therapy plus an anticoagulant drug) and dual antithrombotic therapy (i.e. a single antiplatelet agent plus an anticoagulant drug), both potentially based on vitamin K antagonists or direct oral anticoagulants. The aim of this article was to provide an overview of what is currently known about different approaches to triple and dual antithrombotic therapy in patients who are undergoing anticoagulation for nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and who are scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention.

However, although there is clear evidence of prognostic benefits in patients with an ischemic etiology, findings are not so consistent in those whose symptoms have a non-coronary origin. Results from the DANISH study (Danish Study to Assess the Efficacy of ICDs in Patients with Non-Ischemic Systolic Heart Failure on Mortality) suggest that ICDs do not increase survival in patients with NIDCM. To date, left ventricular ejection fraction and New York Heart Association functional class have been the key indicators for identifying NIDCM patients who are candidates for primary prevention using an ICD. Today, there are new drugs that could provide a greater reduction in the risk of SCD and alternative, more-specific markers that could give better risk estimates in patients. The aims of this article were to review and discuss studies on the use of ICDs in patients with NIDCM and to analyze the application of classical and newly emergent risk markers.

Moreover, strokes secondary to atrial fibrillation are associated with higher mortality, greater dependency and poorer recovery, and there is a high rate of recurrence. Anticoagulant treatment decreases the risk of thrombotic events; compared with placebo, the rate of strokes is reduced by 64% and mortality is reduced by 26%.However, anticoagulant treatment is associated with an increased risk of hemorrhagic complications. In particular, the risk of intracranial hemorrhage, a fatal complication, is increased. The emergence of direct oral anticoagulants has not only improved the efficacy of anticoagulant treatment but, importantly, has also increased its safety. However, as patients do not all have the same thromboembolic and hemorrhagic risks, it is essential that these risks are evaluated in individual patients with atrial fibrillation and that potentially modifiable hemorrhagic risk factors are identified. Finally, it is important that anticoagulant drug treatment is adjusted to suit the individual patient to optimize the benefits of treatment whilesimultaneously reducing the risks.</p><p>Supplement information: this article is part of a supplement entitled “Treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: an update”, which is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34926,"journal":{"name":"Revista Espanola de Cardiologia Suplementos","volume":"18 ","pages":"Pages 9-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56634957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, renal impairment has an impact on the prognosis in patients with HF. In general, recommendations for the treatment of patients with HF and concomitant chronic kidney disease (CKD) are not different from those for patients with normal renal function. However, patients with moderate- to-severe renal impairment have been excluded from most clinical trials, and evidence and safety data on the therapies to be used in such patients are scarce. In the present paper, existing evidences on currently available therapies for HF in patients with moderate-to-severe CKD, including ultrafiltration with peritoneal dialysis, are discussed. Therapy complications, such as hyperkalaemia and renal function impairment, are also described. Dual angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors appear promising as a therapy that could safely reduce the risk of HF among patients with CKD.
