Overview

Analysis shows long-term anticoagulation reduces in-hospital mortality and severe events in HNC, implying better patient outcomes.

Key Points

  • Long-term anticoagulation significantly decreases in-hospital mortality and life-threatening events in head and neck cancer.
  • Patients on long-term systemic anticoagulation had 64% lower odds of in-hospital mortality and 20% lower odds of an acute myocardial infarction.
  • Analysis of the US Nationwide Inpatient Sample data from 2005 to 2018 across over 20,000 patients was performed using multivariable regression techniques.
  • Elevated bleeding risk was noted; however, it did not significantly increase the risk of intracerebral haemorrhage.
