Abstract
RAHMAT, Nur A and LIP, Gregory Y. H. How to choose the best NOAC for patients with atrial fibrillation. Rev.Urug.Cardiol. [online]. 2015, vol.30, n.3, pp.371-384. ISSN 0797-0048.
A non-Vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC) is an attractive option for many patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The various NOACs have slightly different properties, and thus prescribing NOACs should be based on patient characteristics. With several NOACs to choose from, this article offers a patient-centred approach in choosing the best choice of NOACs for non-valvular AF patients.
