Abstract

Background. Thromboembolic complications are the one the factors that plays a significant role in the increase in mortality and disability of the population. The main role in their treatment and prevention belongs to anticoagulants; incl. oral anticoagulants (OACs); which include rivaroxaban; apixaban and dabigatran. OACs have gained particular importance in the context of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic.

Objective. Evaluation of the consumption of OACs in hospitals in the Russian Federation for the period from 2017 to 2022 and the characteristics of their consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods. The database of OOO Cursor Marketing LLC was used as a data source. Data on contracts concluded between 01/01/2017 and 12/31/2022 were analyzed. Data published by WHO from March 1; 2020 to December 31; 2022 were used as a source of data on morbidity and mortality from COVID-19. Consumption was calculated based on DDD (Defined Daily Dose) data presented on the WHO Collaborating Center website.

Results. Total for the period 2017–2022. 57;866 records were entered into the Cursor databases; of which 47.38% of records contained an indication that the purchased drug was rivaroxaban; 26.51% – dabigatran and 26.11% – apixaban. There was a drop in the number of contracts in 2022; from 2017 to 2021; their number grew; with the increase being more pronounced for apixaban and the least significant for dabigatran. Similar dynamics were observed for the volume of contracts; expressed in the number of packages and DDD; 97% of all contracts were concluded for a period of one year. For all analyzed time series; the presence of seasonality was found. The number of packages purchased and the DDD of rivaroxaban (P<0.05) and apixaban (P<0.001) purchased were correlated with rates of new illness and death from COVID-19.

Conclusion. The problem of studying the dynamics of OAC consumption is of significant practical interest. The number of requests for the purchase of OACs in Russian hospitals is increasing; and the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the procurement structure.
