Objective: To investigate the current status of warfarin therapy and the related factors in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation(NVAF) based on data from a single center. Methods: We analyzed clinical data including baseline clinical characteristics, complications, concomitant medications and anti-thrombotic treatment in patients who were admitted to our hospital with NVAF from January 2014 to June 2014. The data were analyzed by t test, Chi-square test, fisher exact test and binary logistic regression analysis for the above indexes with warfarin utilization. Results: A total of 600 patients enrolled in this study, 560(93.3%) patients had a CHA2DS2-VASc score≥1, 162(28.9%) patients received warfarin (alone or in combination with antiplatelet agents), 244(43.6%) patients were treated with aspirin, 137(24.5%) patients did not receive anti-thrombotic treatment. Of the 600 patients, 172(28.7%) patients were treated in line with the current guideline recommendation, 266(44.3%) patients were treated improperly, 23(3.8%) patients were over-treated, 139(23.2%) patients received no anti-thrombotic treatment. Factors associated with anti-thrombotic treatment were persistent atrial fibrillation (OR=3.92, 95%CI 1.43-10.78, P=0.008), radiofrequency ablation (OR=26.82, 95%CI 7.03-102.38, P<0.001), the use of statins (OR=3.35, 95%CI 1.30-8.63, P=0.012), anti-arrhythmic therapy (OR=3.42, 95%CI 1.29-9.07, P=0.014), and aspirin (OR=0.02, 95%CI 0-0.07, P<0.001). Conclusions: In this study, 428 (71.3%) NVAF patients were either un-treated, over-treated or inadequately treated. Intensive efforts are necessary to improve anti-thrombotic therapy status in NVAF population in China.
