Özet
The prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is high and it is expected to increase in the near future (1). AF is a strong independent risk factor for ischemic stroke and systemic arterial embolisation (2). Oral anticoagulation (OAC) has been shown to decrease the risk of stroke. In a meta-analysis of 6 randomized trials including 2900 participants, the estimated relative risk reduction is reported as 64% (3). Despite the evident benefits, OAC is underused even in high risk AF patients (4, 5).
