Summary
"The aim of the study is to compare, in real life, the risk benefit (including both major bleeding and thrombotic events (TE) and death from any cause) associated with direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) and with anti vitamin K (VKA) in older adults (≥ 75 years) suffering from nvAF. The study will be conducted in the French Health insurance database (SNIIRAM). Data of octo+ patients newly treated with an oral anticoagulant (VKA or DOAC) for non valvular atrial fibrillation (nv AF) will be collected from the first exposure of the patient to the drug of interest during the inclusion period to the end of the follow-up period (at least one year of follow-up for each patient)."
