Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted on patients with atrial fibrillation who had an ischemic stroke while using nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants to determine rates and risk factors for recurrent ischemic and bleeding events.
- Over an average follow-up of about 15 months, 15.5% of the 1,240 patients experienced 207 events, including ischemic strokes and major bleeding incidents, with specific risk factors identified for each type of event.
- The rates of ischemic and bleeding events did not significantly differ between patients who changed their anticoagulant treatment and those who continued with it.
