Background The study aimed to describe the patterns and trends of initiation, discontinuation, and adherence of oral anticoagulation (OAC) in patients with new‐onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF), and compare with patients newly diagnosed with non‐POAF. Methods and Results This retrospective cohort study identified patients newly diagnosed with atrial fibrillation or flutter between 2012 and 2021 using administrative claims data from OptumLabs Data Warehouse. The POAF cohort included 118 366 patients newly diagnosed with atrial fibrillation or flutter within 30 days after surgery. The non‐POAF cohort included the remaining 315 832 patients who were newly diagnosed with atrial fibrillation or flutter but not within 30 days after a surgery. OAC initiation increased from 28.9% to 44.0% from 2012 to 2021 in POAF, and 37.8% to 59.9% in non‐POAF; 12‐month medication adherence increased from 47.0% to 61.8% in POAF, and 59.7% to 70.4% in non‐POAF. The median time to OAC discontinuation was 177 days for POAF, and 242 days for non‐POAF. Patients who saw a cardiologist within 90 days of the first atrial fibrillation or flutter diagnosis, regardless of POAF or non‐POAF, were more likely to initiate OAC (odds ratio, 2.92 [95% CI, 2.87–2.98]; P |
