| Popis: | Aim. To compare effectiveness and safety of warfarin, dabigatran, and clopidogrel therapy as thromboembolism (TE) prevention strategy across the age groups in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF).Material and methods. The study included 189 patients (110 men and 79 women), aged 65–80 years, with nonvalvular AF. All participants were divided into two groups: Group I (n=126) included patients aged 65–74 years. They were administered warfarin (n=43), in the dose providing the INR levels of 2,0–3,0; dabigatran (n=41) in the dose of 110 mg twice a day; and clopidogrel (n=42) in the dose of 75 mg/d. Group II (n=63) included patients aged 75–80 years. They were administered warfarin (n=22), dabigatran (n=20), and clopidogrel (n=21) in identical doses.Results. In the younger age group, the 6-month treatment with dabigatran (110 mg twice a day), compared to the warfarin treatment, was associated with a similar incidence of ischemic stroke, but a lower risk of major bleeding (4,8% vs. 27,9%; p |
