Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
Usage of NOAC Based on Baseline Characteristics: Age at the Time of the First NOAC Initiation
Usage of NOAC in patients diagnosed with NVAF, in the hospital setting, based on the baseline characteristics; age, at the time of the start of the first NOAC initiation.
Start of the first NOAC treatment
Usage of NOAC Based on Baseline Characteristics: CHA2DS2-VASc Scores at the Time of the First NOAC Initiation
Usage of NOAC in patients diagnosed with NVAF, in the hospital setting, based on the baseline characteristics: Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age (\> 75), Diabetes mellitus, Stroke/TIA, Vascular disease, Age 65-74, Sex Category (CHA2DS2-VASc Score) at the time of the start of the first NOAC initiation. The CHA2DS2-VASc score is a clinical prediction rule to estimate the risk of stroke in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF); it is frequently used to determine the need for an anticoagulation therapy, relating the high scores to a great risk of stroke and a low score corresponds to a lower risk of stroke. CHA2DS2-VASc stroke risk score may range from 0 to 9 with 0 being the best outcome.
Start of the first NOAC treatment
Number of Patients on Risk Based on CHA2DS2-VASc Scores at the Time of the First NOAC Initiation
Number of patients on risk (Low, Moderate and High) based on CHA2DS2-VASc Scores at the time of the start of the first NOAC initiation. The total CHA2DS2-VASc Scores score was stratified by category according to the following classification: 1. Low risk (score 0 in male; score 1 in female) 2. Moderate risk (score 1 in male; score 2 in female) 3. High risk (score ≥2 in male; score ≥3 in female)
Start of the first NOAC treatment
Usage of NOAC Based on Baseline Characteristics: HAS-BLED Score at the Time of the First NOAC Initiation
Usage of NOAC in patients diagnosed with NVAF, in the hospital setting, based on the baseline characteristics: Hypertension, Abnormal renal and liver function, Stroke (1 point), Bleeding history or predisposition, Labile INR, Elderly (\>65 years), Drugs and Alcohol (HAS-BLED Score) at the time of the start of the first NOAC initiation. HAS-BLED bleeding risk score may range from 0 to 9 with 0 being the best outcome. The high scores to a great risk of bleeding and a low score corresponds to a lower risk of bleeding.
Start of the first NOAC treatment
Number of Patients on Risk Based on HAS-BLED Score at the Time of the First NOAC Initiation
Number of patients on risk (Low, Moderate and High) based on HAS-BLED Score at the time of the start of the first NOAC initiation. The total HAS-BLED Score was stratified by category according to the following classification: 1. Low risk (score 0) 2. Moderate risk (score 1-2) 3. High risk (score ≥3)
Start of the first NOAC treatment

Duration of First NOAC, All NOAC and Subsequent NOAC Treatment
Through the observational period with an average of 9.4 (first NOAC), 9.6 (All NOAC) and 5.1 (Subsequent NOAC) months, data collected during a single visit.
Number of Patients Who Required Discontinuing the NOAC Treatment, to Adjust the NOAC Dose or to Change to a New NOAC

Number of Patients Who Changed From One NOAC to a New NOAC Type and Dose

Eligibility Criteria
Approximately 1.000 patients with NVAF currently on NOAC treatment and having initiated their first NOAC starting from November 2016 (Health Authorities positioning report publication) are planned to be included in the study. To minimize selection bias at the patient level, 10 consecutive patients from each site who meet entry criteria will be enrolled.
You may qualify if:
- The patient is willing and provides written informed consent to participate in this study
- The patient is at least 18 years of age
- The patient has a diagnosis of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF)
- The patient is on treatment with NOAC according to its approved local SmPC and has initiated his first NOAC starting from November 2016
You may not qualify if:
- if the current participating patient participate in any clinical trial of a drug or device will be excluded
