Comparative outcomes associated with rivaroxaban versus warfarin use in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation or acute venous thromboembolism managed in the United States: a systematic review of observational studies
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review supports findings from subgroup analyses of randomized controlled trials that, compared with warfarin, rivaroxaban is associated with generally neutral or positive effects on thrombosis and a mixed picture on bleeding outcomes in older adults with either NVAF or VTE treated in the United States.PMID:37584187 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2023.2247988

Compared with warfarin, individual FXa inhibitors are associated with a lower risk of major bleeding. Nevertheless, bleeding remains a feared complication of any anticoagulant therapy. Despite their demonstrated safety, implementation of FXa inhibitors in clinical practice may have been limited by the lack of a specific antidote. Rece...
