Introduction: Recent anticoagulant intake represents a contraindication for thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke. Idarucizumab reverses the anticoagulant effect of dabigatran, potentially allowing for thrombolysis. This nation-wide observational cohort study, systematic review, and meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of thrombolysis preceded by dabigatran-reversal in people with acute ischemic stroke.

Successful revascularization therapy is of paramount importance in patients suffering acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, there is currently only limited evidence on revascularization outcomes for patients suffering AIS while treated with direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). The aim of our study was to determine the efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and mechanical reperfusion (MeR) in AIS patients taking DOACs, and compare them to randomized clinical trials (RCTs), which included patients without DOAC treatment.

Objective: To assess the frequency and utilization trends of dabigatran reversal with idarucizumab and compare associated complications, outcomes, and door-to-needle times to those of patients not exposed to idarucizumab in a nationwide cohort of thrombolyzed patients over a 24-month period.
Methods: This is an observational cohort study of all New Zealand patients with stroke treated with stroke reperfusion entered into a mandatory online national registry. Each hospital records data including patient demographics, treatment delays, complications, 7-day outcomes, and idarucizumab use.
