Abstract 198: Racial Disparity In Resuming Anticoagulation For Atrial Fibrillation After An Episode Of Major Gastrointestinal Bleeding Poster Session II
Conclusion: In conclusion, the racial disparity in resuming warfarin after an episode of major GIB in anticoagulated patients for atrial fibrillation was more for Caucasians than African American. This may be explained by uncertainty of outcomes that frequently leads to overtreatment of minority patients. Cultural beliefs for not resuming warfarin might have also played a role.
