Trial Outcomes & Findings for Management of Gastrointestinal and Urogenital (GI/GU) Bleedings in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Using Pradaxa (NCT NCT02022020)

NCT ID: NCT02022020

Last Updated: 2017-01-31

Results Overview

Percentages of patients with index event safety outcomes (ongoing/resolved/deceased) at the time of their hospital discharge/release. Emergency Department/Room (ED/ER). Bleeding status at the time of discharge were classified by the principal investigator, using medical record information and medical opinion, as: * Ongoing, if symptoms of bleeding not completely resolved at time of discharge; * Deceased in case of death; * Resolved otherwise.

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Target enrollment

Participant Flow

This was an observational chart abstraction study.

297 subjects were captured in the initial screening. 74 patients were deemed ineligible. A total of 3 patients were withdrawn after being included in the final study cohort following verification of ineligibility leaving 220 subjects eligible for study entry who were enrolled and included in the final study.
