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