Prevalencia de la anticoagulación oral y calidad de su seguimiento en el ámbito de la atención primaria: estudio de la Red Centinela Sanitaria de la Comunitat Valenciana

Prevalence of OAT is high, and it is expected to increase. The degree of control achieved meets the generally accepted quality standard (mean TTR ≥ 65%), and it is comparable to that observed in other national and international studies. However, there is wide scope for improvement. It is crucial to optimize the management of this therapy in the most effective and cost-effective way. Among other measures, access of physicians to their patients' clinical information should be improved.
