Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. stroke/systemic embolism event [between 2014 and 2018]

    To compare the risk of stroke (either ischemic or hemorrhagic) or SE among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  2. major bleeding event [between 2014 and 2018]

    To compare the risk of major bleeding (gastrointestinal [GI], intracranial [IC] and other) among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versusVKAs.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. ischemic stroke event [between 2014 and 2018]

    To compare the risk of ischemic stroke among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  2. hemorrhagic stroke event [between 2014 and 2018]

    To compare the risk of hemorrhagic stroke among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  3. systemic embolism event [2014-2018]

    To compare the risk of systemic embolism among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  4. major GI bleeding event [2014-2018]

    To compare the risk of major GI bleeding among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  5. major IC bleeding event [2014-2018]

    To compare the risk of major IC bleeding among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  6. other major bleeding event [2014-2018]

    To compare the risk of other major bleeding among patients newly treated with each NOAC separately (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) versus VKAs.

  • At least 1 OAC (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, VKAs) dispensed during the identification period.

Exclusion Criteria:
  • Specialty of the physician responsible for the OAC prescription in the index date is one of the following: orthopedics, general surgery, vascular surgery or any other surgical specialty;

  • Duration of OAC therapy during follow-up inferior to the cut-off defined during the feasibility assessment (except if the patient was admitted to in-hospital care during follow-up);
