<i>D</i>-Dimer Levels in Combination with Clinical Risk Factors Can Effectively Predict Subsequent Thromboembolic Events in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation during Oral Anticoagulant Therapy

Abstract

CHADS₂ scores and D-dimer level can be a useful marker of subsequent thromboembolic events in patients with AF during oral anticoagulant therapy and combination of these can effectively predict thromboembolic events.
