Atrial Fibrillation

Analysis of the Potential savings of Rivaroxaban Events versus Vitamin K Antagonists events

Trial purpose

The main objective of this project is to evaluate savings in direct costs as regards the use of rivaroxaban versus vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in routine clinical practice using data from three cohorts of patients receiving VKAs or rivaroxaban in Spain, including the time in therapeutic range (TTR) values of the same and the incidence of events in the first year following diagnosis.
