Comparison of outcomes of direct-acting oral anticoagulants vs. vitamin K antagonists in patients with bioprosthetic heart valves or valve repair: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest that the use DOACs in patients with AF with bioprosthetic valve replacement or repair is comparatively better than vitamin K antagonists in reducing the risk of bleeding and thrombo-embolic events. Future studies with a randomized design and larger sample sizes are needed to further substantiate these findings.PMID:34355372 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202108_26457
