Opis

Because of their narrow therapeutic index, VKAs are at high risk of overdose and sometimes fatal bleeding complications. Several studies have investigated bleeding events with VKAs and risk factors for overdose, but few studies have examined the prognosis of patients admitted for VKA overdose. The objective of our study was to determine the predictive factors for one-month mortality in patients admitted to the emergency department for VKA overdose.
