Abstract 126: The Association Between Medication Aherence and Time in Therapeutic Range (TTR) Among Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Treated With Warfarin: Lessons From the Parkland Health and Hospital System Session Title: Poster Session I
Conclusions: TTR to Warfarin in this underserved population is suboptimal. Given that adherence to Warfarin is independently associated with poor TTR, in the absence of strong adherence interventions, a policy of universal NOAC adoption is unlikely to significantly improve outcomes. If patients are transitioned to NOACs, this data implies that a targeted adherence intervention will be necessary to ensure that the medication is effective in reducing the risk of stroke.
