Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 10/02/09
Pisters R et al. – Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia of the Western world. The increased ischemic stroke risk of the AF patient is one of the most important clinical issues to manage. In the future, increased comprehensibility of stroke risk scores, development of a validated clinical bleed risk score, and new patient and physician user–friendly antithrombotic medication may contribute to improved adequate use of oral anticoagulation in AF patients.
