Geriatric Conditions Are Associated With Decreased Anticoagulation Use in Long-Term Care Residents With Atrial Fibrillation

Ning Zhang et al.

Summary: Anticoagulation is essential for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation patients, but concerns about bleeding hinder its use in long-term care residents. Geriatric conditions such as recent falls, cognitive impairment, and low body mass index were associated with lower anticoagulant use, highlighting the need for further research on the benefits of anticoagulation in this population.
