Use of low-dose rivaroxaban (Xarelto; Bayer/Janssen) plus aspirin improves outcomes in patients with chronic atherosclerotic vascular disease irrespective of body size, a secondary analysis of the COMPASS trial shows.
In that trial, combining rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily and aspirin 100 mg per day reduced the composite of CV death, stroke, or MI at the cost of more major bleeding, and those effects did not vary significantly across categories of body weight or body mass index (BMI), researchers led by Tomasz Guzik, MD, PhD (University of Glasgow, Scotland), report.
The results, published in the February 9, 2021, issue of the
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, “show that this combination of a vascular dose of rivaroxaban with aspirin can be safely used across a broad range of body weights and does not necessitate dose adjustments,” Guzik told TCTMD.

Bothwell To Offer Free Heart Score Screenings
February is American Heart Month, and Bothwell Regional Health Center and Bothwell Foundation have again partnered to provide free cardiac calcium or heart score screenings Feb. 6, 13 and 20.
A cardiac calcium screening is a special type of noninvasive computed tomography (CT) scan that shows if calcium deposits are present and how many. Calcium deposits in the form of plaque build up in the arteries and restrict blood flow to the heart, putting people at risk for heart attacks and coronary artery disease.
Marc Dougherty, Bothwell Medical Imaging director, said the scan detects calciumcardiac deposits in, on or near heart vessels. The screening result is a “score” that reflects the total area of calcium deposits, and a higher score means a higher risk of heart disease.
