Brief summary
Following the findings of the clinical trials in drug development, this global non-interventional cohort field study will investigate rivaroxaban under clinical practice conditions in comparison with current standard of care for patients with acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The main goal is to analyze long-term safety in the use of rivaroxaban in the treatment of acute DVT in routine clinical practice.
Interventions
Patients who will be treated for an acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with rivaroxaban
Patients who will be treated for an acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with current standard of care comprising e.g. of initial treatment with low-molecular weight heparin or fondaparinux, followed by oral Vitamin-K antagonist for at least 3 months
