Does uninterrupted dabigatran improve safety and efficacy compared to uninterrupted warfarin in patients undergoing atrial fibrillation catheter ablation?
Does uninterrupted dabigatran improve safety and efficacy compared to uninterrupted warfarin in patients undergoing atrial fibrillation catheter ablation?
Uninterrupted dabigatran appears to be as safe and effective as uninterrupted warfarin for periprocedural anticoagulation during atrial fibrillation catheter ablation.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support uninterrupted dabigatran as alternative to warfarin in AF ablation; leaves open need for randomized confirmation.
