Patient-Reported Compliance with Thromboprophylaxis Using an Oral Factor Xa Inhibitor (Rivaroxaban) Following Total Hip and Total Knee Arthroplasty
چکیده انگلیسی

This prospective study examines patient non-compliance (NC) for an oral factor Xa inhibitor (Rivaroxaban) when used as venous thromboembolic (VTE) prophylaxis following lower limb arthroplasty. A total of 3145 patients underwent surgery from May 2010 to December 2011. At 6 weeks patients completed an anonymous self-administered questionnaire. Postoperatively 2947 (94%, 2947/3145) received Rivaroxaban. 2824 (96%, 2824/2947) completed all in-hospital doses. Seven percent (203/2824) of patients did not attend the 6-week follow-up. Two thousand one hundred sixty-three (83%, 2163/2621) completed all prescribed doses, 98 (4%, 98/2621) were NC and 360 (14%, 360/2621) had incomplete data. Gender, age, body mass index and preoperative hemoglobin all correlated with NC (p < 0.05). Type and side of surgery did not correlate with compliance (p > 0.05). Patient-reported NC for Rivaroxaban is 4% which compares favorably to other VTE prophylaxis modalities.
