急性期増悪・再発リスクが高い虚血性脳卒中に対して,抗血小板薬2剤併用療法(DAPT)などのより積極的な抗血栓療法が行われているが,一方では出血リスクが増加する。本研究では,ハイリスク例に対してアルガトロバン併用DAPTを行った急性期虚血性脳卒中341例を対象に,退院または入院30日目までの出血性合併症を調査した。症候性頭蓋内出血は認められず,重篤な出血性合併症は1例(0.3%)に認められるのみであった。
Abstract
To prevent early neurological worsening or recurrence in stroke patients with intracranial arterial stenosis or branch atheromatous disease, aggressive antithrombotic therapy, such as dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with or without anticoagulant therapy, is warranted. Such an aggressive antithrombotic therapy, however, may increase the bleeding risk. We studied the risks of DAPT with the anticoagulant argatroban in patients with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Between October 2011 and September 2015, 341 patients with stroke or TIA, who received DAPT with argatroban within 48 hours after onset, were retrospectively studied. The endpoint was any bleeding event during hospitalization or 30 days after admission. Median duration of DAPT was 12 days, and 66% of the patients received intravenous heparin (median duration, 5 days) following argatroban. No symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhages were observed, while severe, moderate, and mild extracranial hemorrhages occured in one (0.3%), three (0.9%), and four (1.2%) patients, respectively. In conclusion, DAPT with argatroban can be safely administered to patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA.
