Anticoagulant Use Among Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

Modular program-based one-time assessment of anticoagulant use among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) using Modular Program 6 (MP6) version 7.1. AF patients were stratified by scores depending on the presence of various inclusion criteria (i.e., congestive heart failure, age, diabetes, hypertension, and/or stroke). Nine runs of the Sentinel Cohort Identification and Descriptive Analysis (CIDA) tool were required; click here for more information on CIDA. The time window for this request was January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2014. The package was distributed to three Data Partners in March 2015; this report contains information from three Data Partners. Please see the Specifications tab for more details on each scenario.
