Practical Guide on the Use of NOACs in Cardiovascular Conditions

Several Phase III clinical trials on NOACs have been conducted to discuss the implications of NOACs in terms of treatment strategies in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). NOACs are more effective, and safer for the prevention of stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, and bleeding risk in patients with AF in comparison with VKAs. NOACs can be the preferred treatment option in the initial management, primary treatment, and long-term treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE).
