Background With the widespread use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), there is an urgent need for a rapid assay to exclude clinically relevant plasma levels. Accurate and determination DOAC levels would guide medical decision-making (1) determine potential contribution spontaneous or trauma-induced hemorrhage; (2) identify appropriate candidates reversal, (3) optimize timing surgery intervention.

Introduction In the perioperative context, there is an unmet need for a rapid and accurate method to exclude clinically significant levels of DOACs in plasma. The DOAC Dipstick test strip designed detect qualitatively direct oral factor Xa (FXA) or IIa (FIIa) inhibitors urine.
