Läkartidningen
Peter J Svensson, Anders Själander

Abstract

Clinical studies have shown NOAC to be at least as safe and effective as warfarin, with a lower frequency of intracranial bleeds. To use them to their full potential, a good organisation with knowledgeable and interested medical staff, proper information to the patients to assure proper handling and compliance of the medications, as well as knowledge of how to handle treatment complications is important.
