Adherence to non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) is an important factor for ensuring efficacy and safety in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). There are controversial results regarding NOAC adherence in real-world data and there are no data about NOAC adherence in Turkish population. This study investigated the NOAC adherence based on self-report, factors affecting nonadherence, and the relation of the adherence level with efficacy and safety outcomes. This multicenter cross-sectional study included 2738 patients (59% female) using NOAC (dabigatran, apixaban, and rivaroxaban) due to NVAF for more than 3 months with >30 days of supply between September 1, 2015, and February 28, 2016. To measure the adherence level, an 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale was used. The mean age of the patients was 70 ± 10 years. Of the 2738 patients, 44% were receiving dabigatran, 38% rivaroxaban, and 18% apixaban. A total of 630 (23%) patients had high medication adherence, 712 (26%) moderate adherence, and 1396 (51%) low adherence. Nonadherence had related to stroke (5.6% vs 2.5%, P < .001) and minor (21.2% vs 11.1%, P < .001) and major (6.1% vs 3.7%, P = .004) bleeding rates. The adherence to NOAC was found to be quite low in Turkey. Nonadherence is associated with bleeding and thromboembolic cardiovascular events. Age, taking NOAC twice a day, and the additional noncardiac diseases, depression, and dementia were the independent factors affecting poor medication adherence.
坚持服用非维生素K拮抗剂口服抗凝药(NOACs)是确保非瓣膜性心房颤动(NVAF)疗效和安全性的重要因素。关于现实世界数据中的NOAC依从性存在有争议的结果,并且在土耳其人群中没有关于NOAC依从性的数据。本研究基于自我报告调查了NOAC依从性、影响不依从的因素以及依从水平与疗效和安全性结果的关系。这项多中心横断面研究纳入了2738例患者(59%为女性),这些患者因NVAF使用NOAC(达比加群、阿哌沙班和利伐沙班)超过3个月,且在2015年9月1日至2016年2月28日期间有超过30天的药物供应。为了测量依从水平,使用了一个8项的Morisky药物依从性量表。患者的平均年龄为70±10岁。在2738例患者中,44%接受达比加群,38%接受利伐沙班,18%接受阿哌沙班。共有630例(23%)患者药物依从性高,712例(26%)中度依从,1396例(51%)低度依从。不依从与中风(5.6%对2.5%,P<.001)以及轻微(21.2%对11.1%,P<.001)和严重(6.1%对3.7%,P=.004)出血率相关。在土耳其,发现对NOAC的依从性相当低。不依从与出血和血栓栓塞性心血管事件相关。年龄、每天服用两次NOAC以及其他非心脏疾病、抑郁症和痴呆是影响药物依从性差的独立因素。
