Mandy Lauw: Can Reduced-Dose DOACs Be Applied to All Patients With VTE?
Mandy Lauw, Internist-hematologist at Erasmus MC, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, adding:
“Evidence for the efficacy and safety of doac dose-reduction for extended VTE treatment is substantial with the renove, eve and api-cat trials. But does this apply to all patients?
This short narrative review in HemaSphere Journal, written together with Marc Carrier and Saskia Middeldorp, provides some relevant insights for clinicians whether reduced-dose doacs can be uniformly applied to all patients with thrombosis and an indication for long-term anticoagulation.”
