PCV68 - Focus groups exploring experiences with and preferences for oral anticoagulants in people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
Established OAC users reported being satisfied and perceived their OAC as effective with low bleeding risk. Users who switched from warfarin to a NOAC reported increased satisfaction related to the lack of clotting-time testing and no dietary restrictions. All OAC users reported dissatisfaction related to worry about bleeding risk.
