Abstract
The recommended tactics for prevention of thromboembolic complications of atrial fibrillation (AF) is the oral anticoagulant (OAC) treatment. The drugs of choice for preventing stroke for most patients with AF, excluding some valvular defects, are direct OACs (DOACS). Regardless of the drug class, all anticoagulants, even at appropriate doses, increase the risk of bleeding. However, the development of minor bleedings is not an absolute indication for DOAC withdrawal. This review presents a tactics for management of patients with minor bleeding associated with the DOAC treatment.
