Median [min; max] values are reported. Rivaroxaban concentration was measured using specific anti-Xa assay or HPLC-MS/MS in 30 and 37 samples, respectively. Apixaban concentration was measured in 38 and 41 samples, respectively. Total neutralization (100%) corresponds to xaban concentration below the lower limit of quantification of HPLC-MS/MS (i.e., 2 ng/mL).
