Atrial Fibrillation Studies Time Therapeutic Range = TTR Modified Ahrens I, et al Thromb Haemost 2011;105
Atrial Fibrillation StudiesWhen should new orals be started? • RE-LY (Dabigatran) • Stroke within 14 days • Severe stroke within last 6 months • ARISTOTLE (Apixaban) • Stroke within 7 days • ROCKET-AF (Rivaroxaban) • Stroke within 14 days • Severe stroke within last 3 months Modified-Ahrens I, et al Thromb Haemost 2011;105
Atrial FibrillationMy View • All FDA approved • Effective agents compared to warfarin • Patient selection for use is critical • Well managed warfarin will remain an option
