| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proper Use of PCC Proportion | 20 months | Proportion of patients for whom the rules of proper use of PCC have been respected |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time to Death | 20 months | Time to death |
| Survival Rate | 20 months | Survival rate |
| Proportion of Patients with Poor Outcome | 20 months | Proportion of patients with poor outcome: comparison of phase 1 and phase 2 |
| Predictors of Poor Outcome | 20 months | Predictors or poor outcome. Potential predictors of poor outcome will be the time from first symptom to admission, the time from first symptom to Prothrombin Complex Concentrate administration, adherence to recommendations regarding proper use of Prothrombin Complex Concentrate, concomitant antiplatelets treatment, medical history or concomitant diseases (cardiac failure, coronary disease, renal failure, diabetes, severe COPD, cancer). For intracranial hemorrhages predictors will include the volume of intracranial hematoma. |
| Proportion of Patients with Seroconversion | 20 months | Proportion of Patients with Seroconversion |
