- Antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents for secondary prevention of stroke and other thromboembolic events in people with antiphospholipid syndrome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by arterial or venous thrombosis (or both), and/or pregnancy morbidity in association with the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies. The prevalence of APS is estimated at 40 - Antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs for prevention of restenosis/reocclusion following peripheral endovascular treatment
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Jul-2012
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is frequently treated by balloon angioplasty. Restenosis/reocclusion of the dilated segments occurs often, depending on length of occlusion, lower leg outflow, stage of disease and presence of cardiovascular risk factors. - Antiplatelet and anticoagulation for patients with prosthetic heart valves
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Patients with prosthetic heart valves are at increased risk for valve thrombosis and arterial thromboembolism. Oral anticoagulation alone, or the addition of antiplatelet drugs, has been used to minimise this risk. An important issue is the effectiveness - Antiplatelet drugs for polycythaemia vera and essential thrombocythaemia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Mar-2013
Polycythaemia vera and essential thrombocythaemia are chronic Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms that increase the risk of arterial and venous thrombosis, as well as bleeding. In addition to the different therapeutic strategies available, - Antiplatelet therapy for aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jul-2008
Secondary ischaemia is a frequent cause of poor outcome in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Besides vasospasm, platelet aggregation seems to play a role in the pathogenesis of secondary ischaemia. Experimental studies have suggeste - Antiplatelet therapy for preventing stroke and other vascular events after carotid endarterectomy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jun-2008
Antiplatelet drugs are effective and safe in a wide variety of patients at high risk of vascular ischaemic events. Among patients undergoing vascular surgical procedures, these agents significantly reduce the risk of graft or native vessel occlusion. In t - Antiplatelet therapy for preventing stroke in patients with nonrheumatic atrial fibrillation and a history of stroke or transient ischemic attacks
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-May-2008
People with nonrheumatic atrial fibrillation who have had a transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke are at risk of recurrent stroke. - Antiplatelet therapy for preventing stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and no previous history of stroke or transient ischemic attacks
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Mar-2011
Non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) carries an increased risk of stroke. Antiplatelet therapy (APT) is proven effective for stroke prevention in most patients at high-risk for vascular events, but its value for primary stroke prevention in patients with - Antiplatelet versus anticoagulation treatment for patients with heart failure in sinus rhythm
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Mar-2020
Morbidity in patients with chronic heart failure is high, and this predisposes them to thrombotic complications, including stroke and thromboembolism, which in turn contribute to high mortality. Oral anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin) and antiplatelet agents - Anti-pseudomonal beta-lactams for the initial, empirical, treatment of febrile neutropenia: comparison of beta-lactams
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Feb-2015
Several beta-lactams are recommended as single agents for the treatment of febrile neutropenia. - Antipsychotic combinations for schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Oct-2017
Many people with schizophrenia do not achieve a satisfactory treatment response with their initial antipsychotic drug treatment. Sometimes a second antipsychotic, in combination with the first, is used in these situations. - Antipsychotic drug treatment for elderly people with late‐onset schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Jan-2013
Schizophrenia is usually considered an illness of young adulthood. However, onset after the age of 40 years is reported in 23% of patients hospitalised with schizophrenia. At least 0.1% of the world's elderly population have a diagnosis of late-onset schi - Antipsychotic drugs for non-affective psychosis during pregnancy and postpartum
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Oct-2008
Antipsychotics are commonly prescribed for women suffering psychotic illnesses during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The potential adverse consequences of these different options are multiple and complex, impacting on the foetus, neonate, infant and - Antipsychotic medication for challenging behaviour in people with learning disability
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Nov-2008
The term 'challenging behaviour', in the absence of psychiatric disorder, encompasses a wide range of behaviours that may be harmful to people or property, may be difficult to manage and may limit access to community facilities. Antipsychotic medications - Antipsychotic medication for childhood‐onset schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Apr-2012
Childhood-onset schizophrenia is schizophrenia with onset prior to the age of 13 years. Although it is rare, people who suffer from schizophrenia at an early age appear to have a clinically severe form of the illness with poor long-term prognosis. Antipsy - Antipsychotic medication for early episode schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Feb-2017
Long-term treatment with antipsychotic medications in early episode schizophrenia spectrum disorders is common, but both short and long-term effects on the illness are unclear. There have been numerous suggestions that people with early episodes of schizo - Antipsychotic medication for elderly people with schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Nov-2009
A large and growing number of older people across the world suffer from schizophrenia. Recommendations for their treatment are largely based on data extrapolated from studies of the use of antipsychotic medications in younger populations.
