A Study Evaluating the Associations Between Clinical Characteristics and Use of Oral Anticoagulants in Italian Elderly Participants With Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation
The purpose of this study is to provide real-world data useful to address the factors associated to the administration of oral anticoagulants in the elderly population affected by non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), in Italy, and it's persistence rate after one year.
