Satisfaction/Quality of Life With Rivaroxaban in SPAF (Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation) Indication (SAFARI)

January 17, 2017 updated by: Bayer

Satisfaction and Quality of Life in Patients With a Diagnosis of Non Valvular Atrial Fibrillation Who Take Rivaroxaban for Stroke Prevention

National, multicenter, prospective, observational, non-interventional study. The objective is to determine if the switch from Vitamin K antagonists (VKA) to Xarelto in subjects treated with VKA with issues for stroke prevention in non valvular atrial fibrillation is associated with an improvement of the treatment satisfaction after 3 months. The treatment satisfaction will be measured by the Anti Clot Treatment Scale (ACTS) score.
