VKAs may aid blood clot resolution
Long-term left ventricular thrombosis resolution in patients receiving vitamin k antagonists: a multicenter observational study.
Study indicates moderate effectiveness
We evaluated the effectiveness of vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in treating left ventricular thrombosis (LVT). Over a year, a cohort of 90 patients was observed for LVT resolution and complications.
By the end of the study, approximately 70% of participants saw their blood clots resolve, with lower success rates linked to factors like reduced heart function. While VKAs showed promise, the treatment's safety profile was also notable, with few severe complications reported.

Thrombosis incidence varies by anticoagulant
Valve Thrombosis and Antithrombotic Therapy After Bioprosthetic Mitral Valve Replacement: A Systematic Review And Meta-Analysis.
High importance in anticoagulation choices.
We investigated the incidence of bioprosthetic mitral valve thrombosis (bMVT) after transcatheter and surgical mitral valve replacements. Analyzing data from 47 studies involving over 6,000 patients revealed that bMVT occurs more frequently in patients undergoing transcatheter procedures, though not significantly.
Interestingly, those treated with vitamin K antagonists experienced a notably lower incidence of bMVT compared to those on direct oral anticoagulants. This suggests that the choice of anticoagulant could influence thrombotic risks after these heart surgeries.

VKA treatment outcomes in atrial fibrillation
Incidence and Predictors of Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Valvular and Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Using Vitamin K Antagonists.
Relevant predictors identified in treatment
Our study involved a group of 1,350 patients with valvular and nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, all receiving vitamin K antagonists (VKAs). Over about 17 months, we noted an annual incidence of 4.4% for serious events like cardiovascular death and thromboembolic occurrences.
Key predictors included a history of thromboembolism and bleeding, low time in therapeutic range, and reduced kidney function. Notably, while VKAs are crucial, they come with risks that we need to monitor closely to improve patient outcomes.

Reduces heavy bleeding
Fine! This is my favourite jar. I take it along with a large dosage of Vit. D (over 5000 units). A pleasant bonus - it thickens the blood and stops heavy periods, so caution is advised for those with thick blood.

No blood clots
This is a good form of vitamin K2, specifically MK7, and does not cause blood clots. The brand is reputable and the packaging is well designed, with capsules in a glass jar. If my review was helpful, please mark it!

Prevents vascular calcification
Vitamin K2 helps remove calcium from areas where it shouldn't accumulate, such as blood vessels, and directs it to where it's needed, like bones and teeth. The difference between vitamin K and K2 is that K is obtained from plant foods, while K2 can be synthesised by the body. However, additional sources are necessary for sufficient intake.

4F-PCC effectively reverses anticoagulation
Twenty years of the four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate Octaplex/Balfaxar: A narrative review.
Crucial for bleeding management
We examined a narrative review that highlights the effectiveness and safety of the four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC), particularly Octaplex/Balfaxar. This treatment is designed to enhance clot formation and is available for reversing the effects of vitamin K antagonists like warfarin.
Over 20 years of clinical use revealed that 4F-PCC significantly lowers the international normalized ratio (INR) in patients, helping them achieve better clotting. Interestingly, only a couple of treatment-related thrombotic events were noted, indicating a balanced approach toward clotting without excessive risk.

Apixaban lowers bleeding risk significantly
Antithrombotic Therapy to Minimize Total Events After ACS or PCI in Atrial Fibrillation: Insights From AUGUSTUS.
Significant findings for high-risk patients
We aimed to find the best antithrombotic regimen for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who recently experienced acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or had a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
In our analysis of a randomized clinical trial, we compared apixaban, a novel anticoagulant, to vitamin K antagonists and evaluated the overall safety and efficiency of these treatments.
Our results showed that apixaban effectively reduced major bleeding events without increasing ischemic risks compared to vitamin K. We recommend using apixaban with a low-potency P2Y inhibitor as the standard care approach.

NOACs outperform VKAs in treatment
Efficacy and Safety of New Oral Anticoagulants versus Warfarin in the Resolution of Atrial Fibrillation with Left Atrial/Left Atrial Appendage Thrombus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
High relevance for anticoagulant therapy
We examined how novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) compare to vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in treating blood clots in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
In our review of 12 studies with nearly 1,000 participants, we found that NOACs achieved better clot-clearing results than VKAs, with a rate of 78% compared to 64%. Importantly, there were no significant differences in safety between these treatments.
Thus, NOACs appear to be a more effective option without increasing adverse events, suggesting a promising alternative for managing blood clots in these patients.

Joint health support
Vitamin K2 should be taken with vitamin D3. The size is convenient, and the quality by Solgar is trustworthy. I’ve had no side effects, and there's no taste. The benefits are evident, especially since it helps to cleanse blood vessels of excess calcium and improves blood clotting, contributing to our joint health.
