“…However, despite clear indications for anticoagulation, it is not always implemented in SSA. [26,[36][37][38][39][40][41] Indeed, in the multiregional RELY-AF registry, [4] patients in Africa had the second-lowest use of oral anticoagulation where indicated (19%, second only to China), and the lowest TTR (33%).…”

Patients in sub-Saharan Africa generally have poor anticoagulation control. We review the potential reasons for this poor control, as well as the potential solutions. Challenges include the affordability and centralisation of anticoagulation care, problems with access to medicines and INR monitoring, the lack of locally-validated standardized dosing protocols, and low levels of anticoagulation knowledge among health care workers and patients. Increasing numbers of patients will need anticoagulation in the future because of the epidemiological transition in the region. We propose that locally-developed "warfarin care bundles" which address multiple anticoagulation challenges in combination may be the most appropriate solution in this setting currently.

“…Patients with AF in SSA have high prevalence of concomitant stroke risk factors 33,35 and should therefore benefit from anticoagulation. However, despite clear indications for anticoagulation, it is not always implemented in SSA 26,36–41 . Indeed, in the multiregional RELY‐AF registry, 4 patients in Africa had the second‐lowest use of oral anticoagulation where indicated (19%, second only to China).…”

Patients in sub-Saharan Africa generally have poor anticoagulation control. We review the potential reasons for this poor control, as well as the potential solutions.Challenges include the affordability and centralisation of anticoagulation care, problems with access to medicines and international normalised ratio monitoring, the lack of locally validated standardized dosing protocols, and low levels of anticoagulation knowledge among healthcare workers and patients. Increasing numbers of patients will need anticoagulation in the future because of the increasing burden of noncommunicable disease in the region. We propose that locally developed "warfarin care bundles" which address multiple anticoagulation challenges in combination may be the most appropriate solution in this setting currently.
