NCT ID NCT05232643

First seen Dec 18, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study looks at why some elderly Italian patients with a common heart rhythm problem (non-valvular atrial fibrillation) start taking blood thinners and others do not. Researchers will follow 720 patients for one year to see how many stick with their treatment and how many switch or stop. The goal is to understand real-world patterns and outcomes, not to test a new drug.
