Optimal time in therapeutic range (TTR) of vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) is crucial for cardiovascular events (CVEs) prevention in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The relationship between temporal changes of TTR and the incidence of CVEs has been poorly investigated. We investigated 1) temporal trends of TTR in a long-term follow-up of NVAF patients; 2) the incidence of CVEs according to changes of TTR.
