Abbreviations: AFXa, antifactor-Xa; AUC, area under the curve; DOAC, direct oral anticoagulant; DTI, direct thrombin inhibitor; LR + , positive likelihood ratio; LR − , negative likelihood ratio; NPV, negative predictive value; R, reaction time.

Note: The reference range of R-time for the FXa channel is 0.6–1.5 minutes, and for DTI channel is 1.6–2.5 minutes.

a

Indicates using the DTI channel.

b

Indicates using the AFXa channel.

c

Due to only single acquired concentration between 30 and 49 ng/mL, no calculations were performed.
