Extrait
Background: Whether the management of vitamin K antagonists (VKA) therapy by general practitioners with the collaboration of anticoagulation clinics (ACC) provides better clinical outcomes than that accomplished by general practitioners alone (usual care [UC] management) is not clear. Objectives: To compare ACC-based shared-care management with UC management of VKA therapy with respect to clinical events. Patients/Methods: Open, randomized, multicenter study in patients starting VKA therapy for at least three months. The primary study outcome is a composite of confirmed symptomatic thromboembolic or major bleeding events. All-cause mortality is a secondary outcome. All outcomes are reviewed by a central, independent adjudication committee.
