Brief Summary
Investigator-initiated prospective multicentre hospital-based registry to uncover the proportion of self-reported anticoagulation in stroke patients with atrial fibrillation and assessing the proportion of stroke, intracranial bleeding and all-cause death in the short (at 3 months), mid-term (at 12 months) as well as long term (at 24 months) after ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack in an unselected urban population in Germany. In addition, annual follow-up is planned yearly up to 5 years after enrollment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Patient self-reported persistence to oral anticoagulants (novel oral anticoagulants or vitamin K antagonists) in stroke patients with AF at 12 months after ischemic stroke or TIA
12 months
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with known atrial fibrillation and acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack
You may qualify if:
- Acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (with clinical deficit on admission or corresponding brain MRI lesion)
- Age ≥ 18 years
- Known atrial fibrillation or ECG recording documenting atrial fibrillation during the in-hospital stay for acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack
- Written or oral informed consent
- Willingness to take part in the planned follow up examinations
You may not qualify if:
- Life expectancy \< 1 year (before stroke)
- Assumed post-stroke life expectancy \< 1 month according to stroke severity
- Chronic anticoagulation for reasons other than atrial fibrillation
