Summary

Pharmacists are in the best position to counsel and educate patients on anticoagulant agents such as NOACs. This should enable patients to play a more active role in their treatment and ultimately enhance adherence behaviour. However, educational elements should be targeted to knowledge. Thus, the investigators will develop and validate a questionnaire that can assess knowledge about NOACs
