Today, we have launched MaTRON, our UK-wide project looking at management of intermediate and high risk PE in pregnancy. This data is desperately needed to help plan services and future studies.

NICE appraisal for #andexanet alfa for ICH has been terminated as AZ did not provide the relevant info i.e. company have pulled the plug on it. This means andexanet will not be available in Eng, Wal, NI for ICH. Will have to see if Scotland pull it based on recent data.

Our hearts go out to all of the families. In MBRRACE Report #VTE is UK #1 cause of maternal deaths. BBC coverage shares case of a mum-to-be seeking help, but #bloodclots not considered & she was discharged with paracetamol. We must #ThinkThrombosis and act bbc.com/news/articles/…

Every drug has its limitations & TXA is no exception. TXA vs placebo to prevent bleeding in pts with haematological malignancies & thrombocytopenia (TREATT) showed no benefit Clearly bleeding in this situation causes little activation of fibrinolysis thelancet.com/journals/lanha…

We learnt a lot about how difficult it is to organise VTE risk assesssment at a national level & discussed the current areas of controversy- it’s all on line Thrombosis UK worth a look!

Continuing on in the same talk - lots of food for thought. We all use AES for thromboprophylaxis - but is it truly effective? What's the evidence? Excited for the UK study to uncover more insight into this. #BMFMS2025 Professor Beverley Hunt OBE (also on BlueSky) BMFMS

Is this the end of rivaroxaban for acute VTE? Lana Castellucci presenting the COBBRA trial - 1st RCT comparing apixaban to riva over 3 months. 56% reduction in bleeding risk with apixaban. A safer Rx with the same efficacy. #ISTH2025
