Figure 1 Flow chart showing how the study population was obtained from prescription purchase data. Boxes show number of purchases with number of unique subjects in parentheses. The final study population with prior stroke is displayed in dashed boxes. In the vitamin K antagonist (VKA)-experienced stratum, warfarin purchasers were sampled in a 2:1 ratio for each switcher to dabigatran (according to calendar month of purchase and duration of VKA-experience).
