Another negative thrombolysis trial for #DVT. This time from my little country. Do NOT thrombolyse #DVT because it is technically possible. Only do it for phlegmasia cerulea dolens.

Rivaroxaban in children - data is finally out! So proud to be a part of this important study! #ISTH2019 #NCHkids

Did you read the editorial by @bhwords in @bmj_latest on the #VTE risk assessment model in the #UK and its effectiveness? As a result, there has been a 15.4 percent reduction in deaths within 90 days after discharge across England. Read here: https://t.co/QMtxvyr3um

Fumar tiene multitud de efectos negativos. El aumento del riesgo trombótico, entre los peores. Sin tabaco ganas salud. #DiaMundialsenseTabac 👇

Extraordinary breaking news: The European Medicines Agency Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment committee have issued advice NOT to use DOACs in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome esp the triple positives.

There is a drift to use “INR” in situations where in the past PT ratio was e.g liver disease, & INR only used to measure the warfarin effects.
I don’t think it matters as long it is realised INR does not predict bleeding tendency in situations such as liver disease #justsaying

Ashamed to admit not knowing that ARISTOTLE had falsified data. So some apixaban publications biased towards efficacy! @GBarnesMD @MaryCushmanMD https://t.co/80RO52bMvh

Important reminder of the main complication we worry about with hydroxychloroquine LONG TERM use - a retinopathy
Those taking hydroxychloroquine need annual eye checks at the optician and OCT and visual field testing after 5 years. https://t.co/KqnjWyao9P

[Professor Beverley Hunt OBE (also on BlueSky) @bhwords]

Currently ⁦@NICEcomms⁩ do not recommend routine graduated compression stocking (GCS) to those with new DVT

So interesting to find that LMWH anticoagulation did not improve pain in those treated for calf DVT, but that regular wearing of GCS did https://t.co/IzpOC9ytb1

Hospital-acquired #VTE represents ~60% of the burden of #VTE , ⁦@bhwords⁩ reminds #NATAforum attendees. Systematic risk assessment is key
