Abstract
AbstractThis study aimed to analyze the influence of renal insufficiency on the anticoagulant effects and safety of warfarin in Chinese patients. Data on the creatinine levels of participants enrolled in a randomized controlled study were screened and divided into the non-renal insufficiency group, mild renal insufficiency group, and moderate renal insufficiency group, according to the creatinine clearance rate. The primary outcome measures were stable dose and average daily dose of warfarin. Secondary outcome measures were percentage of time in the therapeutic international normalized ratio (INR) (%TTR), and the first time to reach the therapeutic INR. Adverse events included bleeding events, thromboembolic events, and mortality. All participants with renal function test results and a baseline INR of less than 1.5 were included in the primary and secondary outcome analysis. The SPSS Statistics 21.0 software was used for statistical analysis. The randomized controlled trial was registered in Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT02211326). A total of 571 patients were included in this analysis. Multiple regression analysis showed that the renal function was correlated with stable dose, average daily dose, and the first time to reach therapeutic INR after adjusting for confounding factors. However, no correlation was noted between kidney function and %TTR. No significant differences were observed across the various safety parameters among the three groups. Renal function is an important consideration in patients using warfarin.
