Redefining Stroke Prevention: The Impact of Apixaban on Subclinical Atrial Fibrillation
The ARTESIA trial demonstrates that Apixaban effectively reduces the risk of stroke or systemic embolism in patients with subclinical atrial fibrillation. Despite the increased risk of major bleeding, the severity of prevented stroke events outweighs the severity of bleeding events caused by the drug. This could potentially change the approach to managing subclinical atrial fibrillation in patients at high risk of stroke. Original article here.
