Figure 2 The cost-effectiveness plane for apixaban versus (A) warfarin, (B) dabigatran and (C) rivaroxaban. Green line depicts ICER threshold of 35,000 euros per QALY gained. The points lying below the line represent the simulations where apixaban was either cost-effective or dominating (South-West quadrant) versus its comparator.
