Introduction: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a complication of prior pulmonary thromboembolism (PE), caused by incomplete clot dissolution after PE. In patients with CTEPH, lifelong anticoagulation is mandatory to prevent recurrence of PE and secondary in situ thrombus formation. Warfarin, a vitamin K antagonist, is commonly used for anticoagulation in CTEPH based on historical experience and evidence.

Introduction: In randomized trials, direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) were non-inferior to the vitamin-K-antagonist (VKA) warfarin in preventing stroke/embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). DOAC are substrates for P-glycoprotein (P-gp), CYP3A4 and CYP2C9. The activity of these enzymes is modulated by several drugs which might induce pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions (DDI).

Data on non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients are controversial. In patients without atrial fibrillation (AF), rivaroxaban showed enhanced ischemia and bleeding as compared to standard of care. ENVISAGE showed enhanced bleeding in AF patients as compared to vitamin K antagonist (VKA).

Background: The best anticoagulation choice for patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with indications of oral anticoagulation (OAC) remains uncertain. We carried out a comprehensive analysis adopting updated evidence that investigated the efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) versus vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in this population.
Methods: A systematic search has been conducted through PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and real-world studies comparing the therapy outcomes of DOACs with VKAs in patients undergoing TAVR with indications of OAC up to Dec 2021.

Background: To evaluate the effect of oral anticoagulants (OACs) therapy, including vitamin K antagonist (VKA) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) in patients with pulmonary diseases.
Methods: Literature from PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library were screened until June 2022. Studies assessing OACs for pulmonary hypertension (PH), pulmonary embolism (PE), pulmonary fibrosis (PF), or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were evaluated for inclusion.
