An observational study of direct oral anticoagulant awareness indicating inadequate recognition with potential for patient harm

Essentials Ignorance of direct oral anticoagulants' effects on coagulation tests may be a safety issue. An electronic questionnaire was sent to prescribers in NHS Grampian with 143 respondents. We found widespread evidence of inappropriate interpretation of the clinical scenarios given. The study suggests potential for patient harm due to lack of knowledge and education is required.
