Brief Summary

Acute ischaemic strokes occur despite the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). Evidence-based scale is necessary to assess ischemic stroke risk in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Stroke Risk Scale

    To design and validate a stroke risk scale specific to AF patients undergoing DOAC therapy (target patients), through retrospective analysis of a population sample, based on demographic, clinical, socioeconomic and gender factors; as well as other newly identified factors.

    From January 2023 to December 2027

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Plasma DOACs level

    From January 2023 to December 2027

  • Burden of atrial disease

    From January 2023 to December 2027

  • Large Intracranial Vessel Occlusion (LVO)

    Until the end of the study

  • Adherence to DOAC treatment

    From January 2023 to December 2027

Study Arms (2)

Primary Prevention Cohort

Consecutive inclusion of patients undergoing DOAC therapy

Other: DOAC Level

Secondary Prevention Cohort

Consecutive inclusion of patients with AF who experience ischemic stroke despite direct oral anticoagulant DOACs.

Other: DOAC Level

Interventions

Testing for plasma DOAC level concentration to determine 'on-therapy' status
