Participant Flow

In this crossover study, subjects were randomly assigned to one of the 4 sequences, but with 5 treatments. In general terms ABDE,ACED,BDEA,CEDA. There were four subjects in Trt E who took Dronedarone mistakenly in place of Dabigatran. These are presented separately for adverse events.
