Anticoagulation in 2023 with Margaret Fang, Andrew Leavitt, and Tracy Minichiello
Department of Medicine Grand Rounds
-
While the direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are no longer ‘novel,’ the dilemmas in the evolving field of anticoagulation continue. In this Grand Rounds, we will explore the changing landscape of anticoagulation therapies and thrombophilia testing, including understanding how DOACs can be safely and effectively employed, even in patients with end-stage renal disease. We will also dive into emerging data on new therapeutics targeting different aspects of the coagulation cascade.
Speakers Margaret Fang, MD, MPH, is professor of Medicine, chief of the Division of Hospital Medicine at UCSF Health, and medical director of the UCSF Anticoagulation Clinic. Her research addresses how to help patients balance the benefits and harms of anticoagulants for stroke and venous thromboembolism. She is the principal investigator of the CVRN VTE and ALTERNATIVE studies, both cohorts of patients with venous thrombosis.
Andrew Leavitt, MD, is a professor in the Departments of Medicine and Laboratory Medicine and director of the UCSF Adult Hemophilia Treatment Center. He is internationally known for his studies of the development of megakaryocytes, large cells in the bone marrow that divide to produce blood platelets.
Tracy Minichiello, MD, is professor of Medicine and chief of the Anticoagulation and Thrombosis Services at the SFVAHCS, a multidisciplinary service that cares for patients on anticoagulation. She developed the first electronic consultation program in anticoagulation and thrombosis for the VA, providing high-level subspecialty consultation to urban and remote veterans and their providers.
