Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method for the determination of rivaroxaban and evaluate the correlation between plasma concentration and anti-Xa activity in patients using oral rivaroxaban. In this study, the plasma concentration of rivaroxaban and anti-Xa factor activities was determined in 125 patients, and the relationship between the two variables was analysed by SPSS 21.0 software. The results showed that the plasma concentrations of oral rivaroxaban patients were significantly correlated with the activity of the anti-Xa factor (Spearman's r = 0.990, P < 0.05). The plasma concentrations of rivaroxaban are a potentially useful monitoring indicator to assess the patient's bleeding risk if testing for plasma anti-Xa activity is not available.
