Clinical, demographic, and concomitant medication data were collected. The endpoint was defined as OAC discontinuation for more than 30 days or a switch to an alternative therapy. Predictors of OAC non-persistence were investigated using a multivariable Cox regression model.Results: This study included 560 participants (51.1% men, mean age 80.9± 0.2 years). During a median follow-up of 20 months, medication persistence was observed in 322 patients (57.5%). Non-persistence was found to be significantly higher with warfarin than with NOAC (48.8% vs 33.6%, p = 0.006). In the multivariate analysis, OAC non-persistence was independently predicted by a history of permanent pacemaker implantation, the use of antiplatelet drugs, employee Medicare, living with children, college degree or above, and persistent AF (HR = 1.580, 1.586, 0.604, 0.668, 0.028, 0.769, p < 0.05, respectively). Treatment discontinuation within 3 months of discharge was observed in a large number of patients (81.8%). Medication discontinuation due to bleeding was more frequently observed in patients who continued for longer than 3 months (p < 0.001), while discontinuation due to patient preference was more frequent in those with shorter durations (≤ 3 months) (p = 0.049). Patient preference was the second leading cause of non-persistence in ...
