Effectiveness and Safety of Direct Oral Anticoagulants for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Extreme Obesity
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are a favored treatment to prevent stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). There are limited data concerning the efficacy and safety of DOACs in obese. Obesity leads to wide structural and physiological changes that may affect the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs. The optimal dosing strategies for DOACs in this significant and growing sub-group remain unknown. The study aimed to evaluate on a large scale the safety and efficacy of DOAC treatment in extreme obese patients with AF.
