Progress in the Reversal of DOACs in Emergent Medical Situations

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

In this activity, a three-faculty panel of experts discuss clinical situations with emergent needs for direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) reversal. Faculty are featured via a video-recorded conference, complete with an accompanying PowerPoint presentation. This virtual forum provides an objective, non-judgmental review of adverse DOAC outcomes and systematic process changes regarding situations where DOAC reversal should be applied.

The activity is intended for hospitalists, cardiologists, primary care physicians, nurses and other clinicians who manage anticoagulation.

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
- Outline current approaches and challenges to management of bleeding in patients receiving DOACs
- Compare and contrast available and emerging reversal agents for DOACs, including their mechanisms of action and available data
- Discuss approaches to DOAC reversal across diverse patient populations
