Real-world Dosing Patterns of Rivaroxaban in the United States

June 27, 2023 updated by: Bayer

Real-world Dosing Patterns of Rivaroxaban in the United States (RIVA-D)

The primary objective is to assess the proportion of Non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients receiving the standard dose of 20 mg of rivaroxaban or the reduced dose of 15 mg of rivaroxaban.

The secondary objective is to determine if dosing patterns for rivaroxaban may be influenced by baseline chronic kidney disease (CKD) status (as a proxy for measured baseline renal function).
