Quality of individual INR control and the risk of stroke and bleeding events in atrial fibrillation patients: A nested case control analysis of the ACTIVE W study

Maintaining a high TTR, with equal importance to avoid low and high international normalized ratio (INR), is a relevant goal of individual patient treatment to prevent stroke and bleeding.
