This evolving landscape highlights the value of ongoing collaboration and mutual respect among all stakeholders.

Late breaking abstract session at #ISTH2025. COBRRA results are in! 50% reduction in bleeding with Apixaban use for acute VTE compared to Rivaroxaban. @THANZBlood members were co-investigators on this study, an enormous effort.

@evsfaustino beautiful summary of 2-hit hypothesis for CVC related VTE in critically ill kids, role of inflammation, need to decouple hemostasis from thrombosis, potential role for XI / XIIa inhibitors, and maybe adolescents aren’t just young adults… #ISTH2025 @THANZBlood

[Jeremy Robertson @littlereddrop]

The session on Vascular Anomalies and emerging targeted therapies highlighted the Haematologists essential role as part of the team caring for this complex group of patients. Adult hospital based MDT services are desperately needed. @THANZBlood

@MarcCarrier1 @THANZBlood @RPTHjournal @JTHjournal @INVENT_VTE Congratulations @MerrimanEileen on such a great paper - I’ve been asked this question so many times - this is perfect. Also nice to meet you in person at the #ISTH2024 “networking event” aka “big party” 👏

[Marc Carrier @MarcCarrier1]

SOA on distal DVT by Dr. Merriman at #ISTH2024. Many potential management options
1) No anticoagulation and serial US
2) Anticoagulation for 2 to 6 weeks
3) Anticoagulation for 3 months
Depends to the risk of recurrent VTE and bleeding 🩸 See below 👇 @THANZBlood
