Just got back from a fantastic trip to New Orleans for #SoHM22. As great as it was to spend the last few days learning with #HospitalMedicine colleagues, it feels great to be back home.
Pickles and Tony made a bee-line for their favorite spots as soon as we opened the door 🐶❤️
We are thrilled to have Dr. Eboni Price-Haywood @Dr_E_PH joining us as our keynote speaker this morning while she discusses strategies for reducing healthcare disparities!
#SoHM22
Previous guidelines suggested that DOACs could not be used in patients over 120 kg or BMI 40+. But that's changed!
The ISTH 2021 guidelines suggest apixaban and rivaroxaban are appropriate options regardless of weight.
#SoHM22
How long should we treat with anticoagulation? It depends!
If any major or minor transient risk factors --> 3 months
If none ---> extended therapy.
If doing extended therapy, use reduced-doses rather than a full dose.

Recent guideline updates have strengthened the recommendation to treat cerebral vein thrombosis with anticoagulation.
