We evaluated atrial fibrillation (AF) patients' perceptions of anticoagulation treatment with dabigatran or a vitamin K antagonist (VKA) for stroke prevention, according to accepted indications.
The RE-SONANCE observational, prospective, multicentre, international study used the validated Perception on Anticoagulant Treatment Questionnaire (PACT-Q) to assess patients with AF already taking a VKA who were switched to dabigatran (cohort A), and newly diagnosed patients initiated on either dabigatran or a VKA (cohort B). Visit 1 (V1) was at baseline, and visit 2 (V2) and visit 3 (V3) were at 30-45 and 150-210 days after baseline, respectively. Primary outcomes were treatment satisfaction and convenience in cohort A at V2 and V3 versus baseline, and in cohort B for dabigatran and a VKA at V2 and V3.
The main analysis set comprised 4100 patients in cohort A and 5365 in cohort B (dabigatran: 3179; VKA: 2186). In cohort A, PACT-Q2 improved significantly (p<0.001 for all) for treatment convenience (mean change V1 vs V2=20.72; SD=21.50; V1 vs V3=24.54; SD=22.85) and treatment satisfaction (mean change V1 vs V2=17.60; SD=18.76; V1 vs V3=21.04; SD=20.24). In cohort B, mean PACT-Q2 scores at V2 and V3 were significantly higher (p<0.001 for all) for dabigatran versus a VKA for treatment convenience (V2=18.38; SE =0.51; V3=23.34; SE=0.51) and satisfaction (V2=15.88; SE=0.39; V3=19.01; SE=0.41).
Switching to dabigatran from long-term VKA therapy or newly initiated dabigatran is associated with improved patient treatment convenience and satisfaction compared with VKA therapy.
我们根据公认的适应症,评估了房颤(AF)患者对达比加群或维生素K拮抗剂(VKA)预防中风抗凝治疗的认知情况。
RE-SONANCE观察性、前瞻性、多中心国际研究使用经过验证的抗凝治疗认知调查问卷(PACT-Q),对已服用VKA且换用达比加群的房颤患者(A组),以及新诊断并开始使用达比加群或VKA的患者(B组)进行评估。访视1(V1)在基线期,访视2(V2)和访视3(V3)分别在基线期后30 - 45天和150 - 210天。主要结局指标为A组在V2和V3时相对于基线期的治疗满意度和便利性,以及B组在V2和V3时达比加群与VKA的治疗满意度和便利性。
主要分析集包括A组的4100例患者和B组的5365例患者(达比加群:3179例;VKA:2186例)。在A组中,PACT-Q2在治疗便利性(V1与V2的平均变化=20.72;标准差=21.50;V1与V3的平均变化=24.54;标准差=22.85)和治疗满意度(V1与V2的平均变化=17.60;标准差=18.76;V1与V3的平均变化=21.04;标准差=20.24)方面均显著改善(所有p<0.001)。在B组中,V2和V3时达比加群的PACT-Q2平均得分在治疗便利性(V2=18.38;标准误=0.51;V3=23.34;标准误=0.51)和满意度(V
