Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Major Clinical Events

    Combined Endpoint of major clinical events as defined by strokes (CVA), transient ischemic attack (TIA), major bleeding, all-cause death, valve thrombosis and non-CNS systemic embolism, hospitalization due to cardiac failure.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Major bleeding

    12 months

  • Combined endpoint of nonfatal stroke (CVA), transient ischemic attack (TIA), systemic embolism, valve thrombosis, venous thromboembolism and vascular causes death.thrombosis, and vascular death

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

Rivaroxaban 20mg

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Oral Rivaroxaban, 20 mg od. Patients with a calculated creatinine clearance of 30 to 49 mL/min per 1.73 m2 received a reduced dose of rivaroxaban of 15 mg od.

Drug: RivaroxabanDrug: Warfarin

Warfarin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Warfarin Warfarin once daily (q.d.). The individual doses will be titrated as needed to maintain a target INR of 2.0-3.0.

Drug: RivaroxabanDrug: Warfarin

Interventions

Patients assigned to rivaroxaban will receive oral rivaroxaban, 20 mg od. Patients with a calculated creatinine clearance of 30 to 49 mL/min per 1.73 m2 received a reduced dose of rivaroxaban of 15 mg od.

Rivaroxaban 20mgWarfarin

Patients will take the warfarin once daily (q.d.). The individual doses will be titrated as needed to maintain a target INR of 2.0-3.0. Patients with 65 \> years old, should take warfarin (2,5mg/day) and all others patients should take 5mg/day.
