Abstract

Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) develop a tendency to bleed and
thromboembolism, so the indication for anticoagulants at the attachment of atrial
fibrillation (AF) is complex. AF is the most common chronic heart arrhythmia, and
thromboembolism and ischemic stroke in particular are the main complications. In recent
years, new oral anticoagulants have been developed and they have shown superiority over
the classic antivitamin K anticoagulants in preventing the risk of stroke, systemic embolism
and bleeding, providing an effective alternative to these resources
