Abstract
This study confirms the under-use of warfarin, but also adds to published reports in several regards. It showed that risk stratification, the guidepost for treatment in international guidelines, had little effect on warfarin use, and that age >80 years and AF classification (permanent/persistent) are factors that influence warfarin use.
