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
Secondary Prevention Cohort
Consecutive inclusion of patients with AF who experience ischemic stroke despite direct oral anticoagulant DOACs.
Interventions
Testing for plasma DOAC level concentration to determine 'on-therapy' status
