May enable rapid NOAC detection without plasma in emergencies; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.

Structured PICO

Intervention

Measurement of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs: dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, edoxaban) using alternative matrices such as serum, urine, and EDTA plasma, including point-of-care (POC) testing.

Point-of-care tests and alternative sample matrices like urine offer rapid, accessible methods for detecting the presence of NOACs in emergency clinical situations where standard citrated plasma is unavailable.
