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 venous thoromboembolism (VTE). The main goal is to analyze long-term safety in the use of rivaroxaban in the treatment of acute VTE in routine clinical practice.
Interventions
Cohort participants are classified as rivaroxaban patient, if the patient receives initial rivaroxaban VTE treatment. Dosing according to daily clinical routine
Cohort participants are classified as Standard of care patients, if the patient receives recommended VTE pharmacological treatments according to international guidelines, e.g. unfractionated heparin, LMWH, fondaparinux, VKA, if these are also approved pharmacological treatments for VTE in the respective country. Dosing according to daily clinical routine.
