Abstract

Due to their advantageous benefit-risk-profile, direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are preferred over vitamin-K-antagonists for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation as well as therapy and secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism. This guideline provides information on the practical use of DOACs, their advantages and disadvantages and limitations. It is based on recommendations from international guidelines (ESC, EHRA, DGA) and adapts them for the general practitioner setting in Switzerland.
