Please note the updated NICE CKS for oral anticoagulation: Anticoagulation - oral | Health topics A to Z | CKS | NICE. In July 2024 there was a minor update. Monitoring guidance for DOACs has been updated from 6 monthly to 4 monthly for people 75 years or older or those who are frail. This aligns with recommendations from the European Heart Rhythm Association Practical Guide on the Use of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (2021).
