Prevention of thromboembolic complications in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major arrhythmia in clinical practice, and its frequency rises rapidly from the sixth decade onward. Its most serious clinical consequence is ischemic stroke. Patients with AF have a five-fold increased risk of stroke compared to those in sinus rhythm. Advancing age, prior stroke or transient cerebral ischemia, diabetes, hypertension, and impaired function of the l...
متن کاملPrevention of stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
OBJECTIVE To review the risk and pathogenesis of stroke associated with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) and the efficacies and risks of stroke prevention strategies. BACKGROUND About 16% of ischemic strokes are associated with AF; AF is an independent risk factor for stroke. METHODS Review of the literature, focusing on 13 randomized trials of antithrombotic therapy. RESULTS The over...
متن کاملThromboembolic complications in atrial fibrillation.
I review the present understanding of thromboembolic complications and their prevention in patients with nonrheumatic atrial fibrillation. Chronic atrial fibrillation carries an annual 3-6% risk of thromboembolic complications, which is 5-7 times greater than that of controls with sinus rhythm. Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is associated with a lower risk of thromboembolic complications than c...
متن کاملSecondary stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation: lessons from clinical practice.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Secondary prevention trials do not distinguish outcomes according to stroke cause. The purpose of the study was to determine whether trial efficacy of anticoagulation for secondary prevention could be replicated in clinical practice in strokes of different etiology. METHODS A 2-year observation study was undertaken in 288 stroke patients with atrial fibrillation (mean a...
متن کاملAccumulation of risk factors increases risk of thromboembolic events in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Accumulation of risk factors could increase thromboembolic event rates in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). To validate this hypothesis, a post hoc analysis was performed to determine the relationship of risk levels and thromboembolic events in patients with NVAF from our previous prospective study. METHODS AND RESULTS Risk levels were quantified using the CHADS...
