Trial Outcomes & Findings for Oral Anticoagulation Therapy Pilot Study (NCT NCT01959425)

NCT ID: NCT01959425

Last Updated: 2025-02-04

Results Overview

Composite endpoint represented by the occurrence of any major thromboembolic event (stroke \[i.e., ischemic, hemorrhagic or cryptogenic\] that is an acute onset of a focal neurologic deficit of presumed vascular origin lasting for ≥24 hours or resulting in death) or major hemorrhagic complication (major bleeding) during the 12-month Evaluation Period.

Participant Flow

The first subject was enrolled April 17, 2013. The last subject was enrolled January 25, 2019.

This was a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, two arm, 1:1 design. Enrolled subjects N=80 (subjects signed informed consent). 63 subjects underwent study procedures, 17 subjects were excluded prior to randomization. According to protocol, enrolled subjects = subjects who sign the study's informed consent form.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 3 months, 12 months

Population: The number of participants analyzed at each time point reflects the number of surveys collected at that time point for each group. Participants may have refused to complete the survey, or were exited from the study prior to the visit.

The 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) is a validated health-related quality of life (HRQOL) tool used to measure the physical and mental health status of the study population. The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 score on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. Scores can be summed together to contribute to two summary scores, a physical component score and a mental component score. The lower the score, the more disability.
