Do you prescribe hormone therapies and need a quick reference for effectiveness and VTE risk? Save this chart from the new #RPTH review by @Bloodman and @Clotmaster @bsamuelson_md #HemeTwitter bit.ly/3B8mQOK

Holding apixaban for 48hrs is perfectly safe before surgical procedures. No lab testing needed!
From the June issue:
For patients taking apixaban, guidelines recommend cessation 48 h prior to surgery
How does this perform in a clinical setting?
Merli et al. measure drug levels in 111 in patients following apixaban discontinuation prior to surgery.

Kudos and congrats to our residents who presented #OHSUscholarship at #Ash21 this weekend!
Also @DrSimoneDekker received an abstract achievement award!
@StoweMcmurry @Clotmaster @JeanSabile @HemeoncOhsu
For anyone at #ash21 who may be interested in a one year dedicated fellowship in Hemostasis & Thrombosis please reach out! @Bloodman and I would love to meet you.
For all those finishing internal medicine residency in 2021 please consider applying to our 1 year fellowship program in hemostasis & thrombosis. Come to Portland and work with @Bloodman @bsamuelson_md @Svematologist and many other amazing eductors.

Compared to low levels, high educational level (OR 0.74), high income (OR 0.70), and high employment status (OR 0.66) were associated with decreased risk of VTE, even after adjusting for comorbidities.

Interesting study using a Platelet Variability Index (A measure of platelet count fluctuations) to determine if patients have ITP. I feel like I try to do this with my eyes but would appreciate a validated scoring system.

Among 12,556 women aged >81 years with VTE in #RIETEregistry, the 90-day rate of major bleeding (n=403; 3.21%) was 3-fold higher than VTE recurrences (n=136; 1.08%)
97 died of bleeding
Should we wait for RCTs (rarely done in the elderly) to treat them differently?

Nice data from @ASH_hematology showing a mentored training program specific to hematology can lead to retention in heme research, impressive research output and increased connectedness. We need more programs like this.
